I Don't Do Spooky
Sunday I was searching for a photo
for a friend who was over
for the day
and I stumbled across these.
(never did find the other photo I wanted)
I started making advents like these many moons ago.
This happened to be an all day class I taught
maybe 7? years ago and it was
a great class. Everyone's
advent came out unique and pretty,
or as scary as they wished.
It was a long day painting backgrounds,
cutting and sewing and I'm pretty sure I
served my classic Halloween chili.
Everything but the spiders and the web
were made by hand,
and each student painted
their background as they wished.
The house was hand cut and assembled
Everyone who knows me knows I always get a pinwheel in somehow
The bats were on wires so they could bounce (fly)
There is a string garland inside the little painted box
I had forgotten how many pumpkins
I used to make each season.
They have homes all over the country.
A sampling...
