My daughter and I, along with some friends, went to the Jack-0-Lantern Spectacular. We saw thousands of carved and illiminated pumpkins. The artistry was amazing!

I finished working on Terri's beautiful charm bracelet and sent it on its way to 9 other players who will also add to Terri's bracelet until it is full and returns back home.





These are the charms and tag I made to add to Terri's bracelet and tag book.

Halloween Marie Antoinette Art box

I recently joined a Halloween treat box swap in my Marie art group. We had to create a "treat bag/box" for our partner and fill it with goodies for making Halloween themed Marie Antoinette Art. This is the spooky art box that I made for Cathy.

Brimfield antique show

We went to the Brimfield antique show last Thursday. We walked around for over 6 hours and I think we only saw about half!



















Here are some of my fabulous finds!
































I found a vintage Marie postcard!




















I think my favorite find of the day was a double daguerreotype with case. The case has a girl holding a flower basket, throwing flowers from it. Inside is 2 daguerreotypes. I'm guessing they are brother and sister. It is in great condition. I'm so happy to add it to my collection!
