Happy Halloween and we have a winner!



Hello!
Happy Halloween to you all, whether you are celebrating or not.
This is the first year I have been creating for Halloween.



Remember these? Wanda sent them in the Sweet and Sinister swap.

I painted them black and added a few things. Like the crow (hard to see) and the banners. And as always I still could have been busy, but I call it a day. Next year there will be a cat too and perhaps a witch.




Work in progress, but this little fellow will definitely not celebrating Halloween this night.


The gourds and in the back ground the pumpkins. I'm not sure if I still have time to cut them before tonight as I'm already behind schedule now.

I can make soup for quite a few days. If it doesn't freeze more severe at night.

This is my 'masterpiece' this Halloween. Very hard to take a good photo as the glass is bulging. This is an antique frame which I painted. Bought it for 3 euro! I collaged it and filled with a raven (Monsieur le Corbeau in french) and some other spooky things.

I shouldn't have polished that glass too well.

As Halloween isn't celebrated here we can eat our own treats, not bad!


The mantle.


Detail: My husband gave these candelabras as a present the first Christmas in this town, 14 years ago. I still am fond of them. Here they are masked to celebrate a proper Halloween. It suits them!


Ohh and before I go, I have a winner to announce; Rini from Catharina's love guessed the most; 89 meters, that's about 93 yards. I was already at 80 yards and I still had to measure these, I just measured up to 89 meters and I still don't know what the total is! Thanks for participating.
Rini if you email me your addy you'll receive an appropriate price. As I forgot to teach a dutch word last time we'll do two this time
lint= ribbon
kant = lace



My tulip vase filled with some spooky flowers for the occasion.
It's dark here and hard to take photo's like somebody is messing with my camera...

Was that? Did you see...? I think that was a ghost that entered the house;
Quickly...run to the trick and treat table to save the treats!
Have a happy Halloween!


Dames, voor de laatste keer dit jaar val ik jullie nog lastig met Halloween. Ik heb dit jaar voor het eerst wat dingen geknutseld voor deze feestdag, het meeste is opgestuurd, maar ik heb voor onszelf ook nog wat gemaakt.
De huisjes van Wanda en nog wat zaken (natuurlijk ben ik nog niet klaar) heb ik nog maar eventjes op de foto gezet. Ik ben best trots op mijn raaf in de bolle lijst en op mijn kandelaars, die ik voor de gelegenheid gemaskerd heb. Ik kreeg die 14 jaar geleden cadeau van hubby en ze passen eigenlijk bij alle feesten en partijen.
O ja en dan de prijsvraag. Jullie kennen me slecht! Ik had al in de 80 meter afgemeten zonder dat ik het roze kant en het blauw zijden lint gemeten had. Vergeet vooral niet even op te letten hoeveel meter en wel niet op zo'n rol kan zitten! Rini van Catharina's love is de winnaar omdat zij het grootste aantal meters geraden heeft; 89 meter en er dus het dichtst bij zat. Rini als je me mailt stuur ik een toepasselijk prijsje naar je op.

Allemaal een fijn weekend,

xoxo LiLi M.
