Spooktacular Handmade Collection

Last Halloween, I was up in the Lake County, Orlando area and boy, do they know how to celebrate Halloween there, all of the homes were decorated to the point that I had to head out and get something for mine as well. Well, this year, I am in South Florida and the vibe is just not the same, it is a little sad, maybe it is due to the 80+ degree weather down here as opposed to the 60s a little further north, I am not certain, but am determined to enjoy Halloween just the same, so I decided to put together a handmade Halloween collection.

Now, to me, Halloween is the kickoff of the holiday season, right after Halloween we have Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years and we all know this time of the year goes by in a flash. I believe Halloween is thought of as all about the kiddies getting candies; however, this collection displays handmade items for everyone, including our pets. Okay, I know some of us consider pets to be our kids as well, except they don't eat candy, well, my little chi-chi will eat candy if she can, especially Sour Patch Kids, with popcorn! Here is a little something Spooktacular for all."

Fall Into Autumn Handmade Treasures

I love autumn, it reminds me of my childhood in W.Va and the splendor of colors throughout the mountains as the leaves changed colors. It also contains Halloween, which seems to be an official "kickoff" to the holiday season, once Halloween hits, Thanksgiving rolls around, Christmas, and the New Year.

In celebration of all of the fall colors, which I no longer get to enjoy here in sunny, hot, humid, and actually in the midst of a tropical storm warning, South Florida; nevertheless, I can enjoy the change of colors through my fellow artisans. Hope you enjoy these finds as much as I do.









Coming up on the blog! Some Halloween finds and fun crafts and recipes to make with the kids!! Get out the sweaters kids, Autumn is here.

Saint Patrick's Creations


Hello Dear Readers!! Boy, have I missed my blog. I have been so busy since December. I lost one of my major accounts, due to a merger, and the scramble was on to find a replacement for my day job, which I had been neglecting the marketing side so terribly due to having so much fun being creative and working on my studio items and blogging...well, I have managed to do a little bit better for marketing, set up a website for my day job, to hopefully bring in some business, Medpro Office Solutions, created an ongoing commission based marketing plan for those who love to sell and would like to make a continuous commission for any client I can secure (interested, send me an email, not interested,,,sigh,,,keep on reading about the great Saint Patrick Day finds I was able to rustle up!!...not interested in that either!!! Argh!! LOL. Ah, yes, blogging brings me such joy! Okay, on to the good stuff!
