Halloween is taking shape...

Molly is over this weekend, the cats are fussed...but Molly is doing really well with them!
Meanwhile, while hunting for a job, i'm entertaining myself with more Halloween art. I feel sort of guilty, i'm using the yards and yards of fabric that came with my sofa--it's a light blue microfiber, great quality, and expensive feeling fabric. I just hate the color. So it's got to be used for SOMETHING! :D

I think i just have 1 more sign (the same as the first pic to make) and then it's on to costumes! and CHICKENS. :D

Here's the results so far:

Entry to the Fortune Teller's "Wagon" (think arbor top)

To slow folks down and make the kids read...the price list to the right of the "wagon" entrance.

one of the 2 Chicken "Poultrygeist" skeletons, to live with Mr. AskMe Eye-KnowNothing. (the glow in the dark skeleton!)


The side art--on either side of the skeletons to keep folks from entering hte wagon from the side. the chiken art is 2'x2'.

PoultryGeist~

Guess what I did today!?

I created PoultryGeist from an online drawing, blown up using BLOCKPOSTERS.COM, and glued to a pc of underlayment (it's really cheap).

Then I started painting, because the drawing was very pixelated. And I discovered...I can paint!! I'm so thrilled with the outcome so far. I have a couple pieces to fix, then I have to figure out how to trim it and drill holes in the eyes--to put red holiday lights into. :D

The idea is that this will go into the back of my car, or another for Trunk or Treat and provide the PoultryGeist for the Alectromancer... Then agian, I really like the last pic so much, I may end up hanging this in my house for a little while. It does look really cool!

The blue with holes around the Fortune Teller Front is the Light board. I have some twist in patio lights to place in there to light up the Fortune Teller.

Fox Island garage sale is this weekend....busy week!
