Better than yours


Today Bianca (4 years old) wanted a vampire to color in so I doodled her a Count Orlok...make it a girl she said...so I added a bow and curls. That makes a girl right? She goes and watercolors it in and comes back and says ,Mine came out better than yours mom.....it sure did! Hahaha.

Street Corner Find




The hub spotted this chair on the corner for free and brought it home!!! Wheeeeeee! I adore the color, age and style!
He said it actually occured to him to NOT bring it home, then thought what the hell was he thinking?!
Good thinking.

Trixie








I don't know about you but every Fall there is a specific moment in which a wind blows in the season. Just like in the book Something Wicked this Way Comes. I don't imagine it, it really happens. Trixie reminds me of that first feeling of Fall...the excitment of the tricks and treats season.

I'm still trying to hang onto summer, but one of these days the Fall magic will take over :)

The Devil Himself






The guy already has his own story...


He is made from a mix of new and recycled fabrics and buttons. His horns are made from the lining of a fake fur coat. I wasn't going to add arms but the hub suggested I do and tie them behind his back!! Which makes total sense!!! Perfect idea because the Devil is never without being up to something...

New Monsters in shop!




Including... Count Orlok of Nosferatu...
Yesterday, spur of the moment I doodled Count Orlok and had no plans to make a doll. But then it occured to me to try and here he is! All ready for Halloween!

Which is not too far away... so I hope you all are planning some kinda costume because Halloween duds are not allowed here, hahahaha :D
