Happy Halloween everyone, hope all of you on the East coast are safe after the powerful force of Sandy. We had crazy high winds and rain, but luckily no damage other than the cupola of our shed fell off, which is an easy fix.

I just finished this tutu ordered by a women from Bourne, MA, not too far from me! I really LOVE the color combination of purple, fuchsia (shimmer) and orange. She also asked for scattered iridescent sparkles which is always fun! I believe this is for Halloween, but this tutu is perfect to wear year round!
In an earlier post I gave a sneak peek to the Mummy I was in the process of making for Halloween. I LOVE Halloween and every year I try and add a couple more fun decorations to our every growing collection of spooky things. I especially like it when I am able to make this… read more »
