Snow Globe

How cute is this, got the idea from a lady in the States who collects mini Log cabins. She decorates the house with little logcabins and fir trees and placed a little scene under a cake dome. I just loved the look so I made a little cardboard house, painted it and finished it with polyester batting and glitter. I am thrilled with the finished product.

Halloween

Trust me to post about Halloween in December but I just haven't been able to find the time to get all the photos uploaded and blog. I will try to be spend a bit more time posting. I haven't been getting much sewing done, what with decorating for Halloween and now Christmas, having parties and making wedding cakes the last month has been a bit of a blur. Here are a few pics from my recent Halloween party, hope you enjoy them

Can you believe my daughter Nikki brought me this for my birthday

Raggedy witch

A cute wall-hanging that I completed last year

The pineapple table runner kit I brought from Houston looked great on the main table.

I loved the giant spiders although I kept scaring myself with the smaller plastic ones on the table as I was dusting.

Th decorated fireplace looked great with a Dracula's castle that lights up and a few favourite witches I picked up last year in the US.
