Hmmmmmm

Oh help me.....I think I could make myself bald.........I can not get my camera to download onto my computer............yikes and double yikes!!!!!!!! Ok, it's not a national emergency, but I love this camera.....ok I don't LOVE the camera, but I do enjoy using it and what good pictures I get..........guess after I pick up Daniel this afternoon we are off to Best Buy.......sure hope I get a young lady or man that has lots of patience and not patronizing either. Hmmm, maybe that 's to much to ask for...........
Here are a few more of the inside Halloween decorations.................
Isn't this the cutest little castle? A little patching here and there and I just know you would want to move in............the witch next to it, I found it at Michael's this year, thought she was a good size to stand next to the house.
I purchased a black feather boa and we already had those floral glittery twisty things....so just stuck them around this little grouping................here are the fellas on the opposite side of the china cabinet (it's been in the family, hmmmmm well it was my great-grandmother's.........so Jenn is the 5th generation to use it --- not always for china, but always given a place of honor in each and every home.)

My daughter found these in an airport gift shop at an almost give-away price........don't you just love it when something like that happens?


Another one of my cross stitches.......the spider has red beads sewn on him/her.............and the little green worm, well it is just the added touch..............I almost dropped my draws when they told my daughter what it was going to cost to have it framed like this.........(I think she was kinda shocked too), but she didn't reconsider, she stuck with her original plan........I do like how all of the matting picks up the colors.

Now onto the fireplace mantel...................
As you can see, I also bought a orange feather boa.........and purchased some of the glittery ball floral things at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago, I know I already mentioned this, but I just love that little bit of glitz !


This pumpkin lady is just the belle of the ball in her net skirt and orange feather belt.......oooo, and the polka dot top.........my oh my.......
These last three pieces we found at T.J.Maxx on sale.........here is a look at the mantel all together.........


We have a few other things..........did I show you the dining room table???



The candles aren't black, but this really deep deep purple.........you can't see them at all, and I KNOW they are there, when I made this centerpiece, I put wisps of purple ribbon in it and they hand down ............I told you I had a thing for shoes........tee hee

Tomorrow is the pumpkin patch, sure hope my camera is fixed OR I am enlightened enough to know how to fix the problem, so I can share those pictures........

Have a good day.........spread some sunshine................
