Doorway to Autumn

Take a word challenge this week is Doorway..

Since it is already September, 

I thought I'd make this a little bit Autumnal.

 

New Art

Good morning!

Hope your weekend was great.

I had a quiet one, but it was very nice.

Thank you all for your kind, encouraging comments on my last post.

I actually had a little inspiration and created two new (simple) canvases.

This first one is called 

'Halloween Night'

This one is 

'Haunted Garden'

They're both created with acrylics and oil pastels/crayons.

I had fun making these...

I'll most likely make a few more since they 

are so easy to do.

Another thing I did this weekend is tidy up my bookshelves and glitter cabinet.

I love seeing all my slightly dusty and disorganized supplies, books and knick-knacks

cleaned up and straightened out.

I'll post a few pictures here when I get a chance. it looks so much better:)

Well, I'm off to make a cup of chamomile tea,

 then I'm stopping by to visit your blogs.

Have an magical day💫

Welcoming October & cryptkeepers

 Hi!

Happy October!!

Can you believe it's finally here?

It's still hot, 

95 and sunny, but I'm not too upset by it..I'm not living under a tree with the sun beating down on me 

(as much as someone would hope) haha

It's chilly in this little haunted house of ours and We are happy!

Have you heard about 

Countdown to Halloween ?

They are just as crazy about Halloween there 

as I am here!

If you're posting VERY frequently about Halloween or you are having a month long blogging marathon,

You can be added to their list of Cryptkeepers.

Take a look here...if you're brave enough!

I saw this video on Facebook last and I think it's perfect for today!

I remember watching them as A child and now I get to watch them

with Helena..She really enjoyed them..

It was great, 

We lit up our jack-o-lantern and made sugar cookies while we watched.

Did you enjoy the black moon last night?

I made sure to take a bit of time to utilize the power it bestowed on us.

So that's it for now..

I hope you have a wonderful, magical first day of October..

 I'll be back very soon to post about more Halloween fun..

Don't forget to come back for Haunted Humpday!

Gotta go, We're making ghouls out of rocks..

Almost Autumn

Three Muses Challenge this week is 

Autumn Colors..

Here's my take on it.

“Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!”
―Humbert Wolfe

Autumn Leaves

The Three Muses Challenge this week is

Autumn Leaves.

                               

"Every leaf speak bliss to me, fluttering from the Autumn tree."

Emily Bronte

Autumn

I love Autumn.

The way it rolls off the tongue..how it sounds, what it means!

This week's take a word challenge  theme is, you guessed it...

Autumn.

This is my little Autumn fairy,

She's all ready to change the colors of the leaves.

Have a great Monday!

Altered Witch Shoe and It's Fall!

It's Autumn & I've got my altered witch shoe all ready.

I used an old boot...but it was low so I stuck an empty tin can in it and added duct tape to the toe to make it pointy...

Then I covered the whole thing in a layer of white glue and decoupaged paper onto it.

The rest fell in place and now I'm ready to skip over to Frosted Petunia's and see what's kicking:)

Have a Happy weekend.
