Pumpkin Glop,ladder and blueprints!!!

Hmmmmmmmmm I am having a very interesting weekend!!! Got you curious??? Actually putting the finishing touches on our newest EBAY Piece that will be listed tomorrow...

It involves all of the above.... still have you curious....!!?? I will just say...I am a mess, sticky, have 8 things going at once and I am still trying to name the piece....I am leaning towards 'Punkie Sprites'

OK...that's about it from the Creager Cave.... been a hectic last few days...so needless to say I am REALLY looking forward to my Saturday Night glass of wine ...hee hee.

Hope everyone is having a Super Weekend so far...

Hugs,

I Could Not Let.....


This WONDERFUL First day of October pass without saying Happy Happy Witching Season to one and all...
I have been doing a little happy dance all day long around the house... had my first cup of Hot Cider as our weather just today had an actual chill in the air this morning ...it was delightful and most welcomed. I also started to drag my decorations out of various hiding spots around the house ... cupboards, closets, upper shelves, behind boxes, in boxes, from the garage, in drawers. It is like seeing old friends again...memories rush back from Halloweens Past, good times and good scares. Each year I change things around a bit and plan little...rather choosing to play it by ear and see which way the Hallowmuse leads me... I think we should all post pictures of our decorations on our Blogs...what say ye?? I still have not found wonderful things this year in commercial stores...but when the time is right...I am sure I will make a ghost or two to hang about. I think too I am going to have a Seance here with all my local girl friends... should be fun and VERY interesting...have not done that for years...last one I did...a hand print was left in the center of a very BIG table we were using...where no one sat and the hand was huge ...I will smudge and leave open scissors near the table and take other precautions. I know some very spiritual gals here so it could get very interesting.
OK..enough of this hocus pocus...I am off to dreamland in about 10 minutes ..the moon is bright tonight so my dreams should be full of fun things...
Oh...and this is my 200th post.... saved it for my first October Post...
Sleep Well All...
Hugs,
Jodi

One Post Away for 200...do I actually talk that much???



Well of course I do.... talk talk talk talk...truth be known I should by all rights be up to about 700 posts by now as I could surely talk enough to reach that number...but alas I try to hold back and post more selectively as I don't want to run anyone screaming for the hills...
Instead...for all of you 'Spider Haters' out there...get your running shoes ready...just thought I would post two fun pictures (in honor of Halloween in our Midst) ... Richard and his pet Black Widow Spider......
I took this shot a few years ago right after Richard made this BEAUTIFUL spider for a doll setting we did .... Richard carved this little gal all from wood ...joints and all. So one day while Richard was napping on the couch...the 'EVIL' Jodi crept into the den , carefully placing the spider on his chest ...then stepped back and gave a little scream of course waking Richard to find the spider on his chest and close to his face...the VERY BAD Jodi...popped a picture!!! OK...two things , I didn't realize it would give him such a start as he made the bloody thing and finished it just the day before...but I guess waking from a sound sleep to see something so large in your face...would frighten anyone (who knew)...and second thing...(and what is not featured here in a picture) is Richard right after this... giving me hell for taking such a chance with his spider...claiming that "You have NO IDEA how close I came to flinging it across the room in terror!!! " OMG...I didn't even think of that...
The bad Jodi slithered off to her studio , whimpering forgiveness ...yet allowing the Evil Jodi to enjoy one more slight smile from the corner of her mouth ....BAD JODI BAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!
Hugs from the GOOD Jodi

Sunday Dis and Dats!












And now for my Mish Mash of Sunday Sillies... an array of odd ball photos that I recently popped!
First two are a shovel Richard just made and finished this morning for a new Halloween Elf piece we are doing...the dude is nuts...carved the shovel part from wood (and handle) then painted it to look like metal...
Next are the Elves from the piece...just hanging around on my desk top waiting for bodies...I would say they look pretty desperate for their torsos...
The Next two shots are taken in my back yard...not good shots as it was barely light and I didn't use any flash.... but I had to share... am I crazy or does anyone else see the Side View Skull in these two pics??? I sure do... I thought it was pretty cool!!! Halloween Approaches!!
Happy Sunday Everyone...Richard is taking me to breakfast and out to Michael's for Paint...
(heck with the paint...I want the pancakes!!!!)
Hugs to All
Jodi
