Pink and Sparkly Returns

“Pink and Sparkly” returns!

I now have enough vintage ornaments to cover the entire tree. But where do the hooks go while in storage? I swear every ornament had a hook when I put them away last year.

New this year are two color-changing LED spotlights. 

Christmas Cards

I made some Christmas cards this week.

I mostly used natural pigments I bought last year at La Compagnie des Ochres in Rousillon France.

Grinch

My Grinch is from 2018. 

A Few Cards

For my friends who missed our lunch bunch. 😻

Christmas Crafting

I am attempting a few arts and crafts lately. Here are some ornaments I made to share with my “ladies lunch bunch” tomorrow. 

The beads I used for the embellishments have been in my stash for at least 50 years! 

Feliz Dia de los Muertos

Para Francina, la reina de los gatos. 

Mid-Century Modern Cat Art

I did this back in 2020 or so. 

Happy Halloween

Flashback to 2017 and one of my favorite bookstore windows.

We transitioned the window Halloween night when the Great Pumpkin appreciated its sincerity.



Signs of Fall 2024

I always enjoy the scarecrows around town. I loved the clever use of a lampshade to make Halloweentown's mayor. This was at the city hall building.

We saw a Dracula comedy.

And visited the original.

Had some fall pie.

Made mummy dogs.

And enjoyed the first fire of the season.
