MASTER YODA

5am Start

I had to get his ears stuck to his head for an entire day.

We had to turn his mustache into a big yoda upper lip.

The supplies I have always used for prosthetics are:

cotton balls

tissue

and the magic ingredient is

liquid latex

His green makeup was mixed with regular foundation.

Dinner before we head out trick or treating with my nephews

DO OR DO NOT ... there is no try!

GHOST OF HALLOWEEN PAST costumes

Diposting oleh bian di 12.51 Label: costumes, ghost, halloween, of, past, Woodworking

Last year George and I did the ghost thing but a little more elaborate

than a simple sheet.

Ghosts from the Titanic

George gets to know a great deal of the customers he delivers to,
and the last couple have been spent together doing those deliveries all dressed up.

Last Halloween we stopped in to see Bunny and got a photo taken with her.

Miss Bunny unfortunately passed days after her 101st birthday Oct 16th 2011.

I have always made all my costumes thru the yrs.

2009 I wanted to be the characters on a lotto scratch card I bought

King and Queen of Hearts

When I give him a a full face of hair it takes at least an hour or more in the early morning

to get ever hair glued in place.

Here is George half way through getting his beard glued on

2008

Leprechauns

At the time I was a warehouse manager and this costume was fun and easy to work in

and it was mighty cute too!

Captain Morgan

George actually wore the pirate costume to deliver for the day

and changed into a leprechaun when we went out for the night.

The next three are costumes I made several years before

George and I met.

Energizer Bunny

I actually made 5 costumes like this,

Sylvester the cat, Wiley Coyote, Scooby Doo, and Tiger

All were sold except the the Bunny

Miner 49er

GANDOLF the GREY

Heres a couple of pumpkins I carved for the front porch last year.

Many years ago I also used to be a professional pumpkin carver.

I also won a few community contests for this work

I will be resurrecting The Cat for this years festivities.

And George will be ....

well youll just have to wait and see.

My Visit to Sweet Clover and the Hometalk Halloween Hunt

Diposting oleh bian di 14.33 Label: and, clover, halloween, hometalk, hunt, my, sweet, the, to, visit, Woodworking

I am a mothers to boys.

So, that means that almost everything I do is boy related. Which means that most everything I do revolves around sports (and cleaning).

Football games,

Lacrosse games,

Basketball games,

every...single....weekend.

And, while I really do love watching my boys play sports, once in a while,

I really need some girl time.

So this Saturday, one of my sweet friends Charlene, mother of just boys too,

joined me on a rare shopping outing, on a rare day without sports.

We headed out to visit Sweet Clover

(A beautiful shop run by a sweet blogger named Cassie at www.primitiveandproper.blogspot.com)

for the Hometalk Halloween Hunt.

(click Hometalk to visit this amazing home and DIY site and click below to read my post for

Hometalk on The Top 20 Ways to Repair and Restore Wood)

What an amazing event they put on.

The store was GORGEOUS.

Filled to the rafters with unique and beautiful vintage goods.

There were goodies for visitors and smiles from the entire staff.

And, I had a former career at Nordstrom, so great service means a lot to me.

For this event, starting at Sweet Clover, you were given a bag and some gifts and you then headed out to other amazing stores.

Chartreuse & Co.

Lucketts

On a Whim

Although we didnt have enough time to visit every store,

because our husbands and sons cannot be left alone that long,

we are definitely going back to each of them.

At Sweet Clover and Chartreuse, I found so many wonderful goods I wanted to purchase.

I only left Sweet Clover with a couple smaller items while I ponder what I want to go back and purchase...I get very indecisive.

Here are the little treasures I brought back home.

A vintage scale,

some wooden spools,

and

a tub of Miss Mustard Seeds white wax

for a dresser I am working on.

And the most exciting thing for me...

I got to meet Karen the Graphics fairy www.thegraphicsfairy.com

and

Miriam from Hometalk.

And, they were both so friendly and sweet.

Sorta looks odd the way Im holding that scale...I dont think it is weighing much, haha!

Have a beautiful day!
