Happy Halloween!

"By pumpkins fat

and witches lean,

By coal black cats

with eyes of green,

By all the magic ever seen . . .

I wish you luck this Halloween."

Another Pair of Ballet Shoes

I have so much fun making these up-cycled ballet slippers! 

The blue pair has sold so I've created this pearly white pair. 

My backyard fence is one of my favorite backgrounds for photos. 

I love old wood that has been weathered to a lovely gray.

I have another pair or two that are ready to be painted. 
Now if I could just decide on the color.
