HaLLoWeeN!

So HaLLoWeeN is this week~and I have not opened one tub of Halloween decorations. Now what does that tell me?! I might have gone overboard with 'stuff'?! Guess I would agree with that, since I have some great things on display. Luckily, I store many of my best things in a spare bedroom closet. And...I bought some terrific new things. So I will share pictures of the new or favorite things I have out. PS It doesn't help that my living room is still full of craft supplies, waiting to be taken back down to my new remodeled art studio (Ha!).

Clowning Around

Who knew that clowning around would be so much fun! Last weekend was the annual 'Folktoberfest', a gathering of Wee Forest Folk collectors from all over the United States in a small rural town in Michigan. This year's theme was 'Wee Ring Circus' with amazing mice made special for this event. We earned raffle tickets for dressing up, entering displays, or other fun things (I joined a group of mouser friends and performed as 'Rock Lobsters' to earn even more tickets). The raffle tickets were entered in drawings for mice (I was lucky and came home with one!). Oh! I decided my circus needed a bearded lady~she is quite ugly but cute at the same time... Here are some pictures~of clowns and lobsters and special mice~Enjoy!
