I hope everybody had a wonderful weekend!!! I had a fairly relaxing one with a trip to the market, hosted a intimate horror movie slumber night with cock-a-tails and nibbles, complete with a next day hangover!!! But all and all, a lovely time had by all! Last week I got in the mood for the season finally and did some season decor changes. I always like to do just a minor touch of holiday decorating to celebrate each season, and fall is my second favorite to do! I always had fond memories in the fall. I even whipped up a batch of mulled cider for my guest. I thought I'd share some of the touches this year. My apothecary jars are always my favorite to see what I can come up with. I even brought Millicent back out to perch on a gourd! I think she may even end up in my costume this year. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
Remember these from from we were all small? This belonged to my grandmother. I always put it out since it brings back memories of Halloween of yester year!
A gourd I got in New Hope some years back. It has been hollowed out and made to look like a quail.
Over the weekend I got the idea to carve a small pumpkin and then use some spray adhesive to coat and then covered it in a orange glitter! Turned out cute, no? I even placed a small battery operated tea lite on the inside since it's so small.
Now..... to get finished on the costume!!!
That wee glitter pumpkin is adorable!
