It is that Spooky Time of Year!


Get out your orange and black,
leave the spider web on your front door,
encourage the mushrooms on your lawn...
It is time for Halloween once more!

I am not a huge fan of Halloween, like some of my bloggy friends (you know who you are!)
But I do feel a thrill when creating Halloween inspired art!
I loved going out to Trick or Treat as a child, even as a teenager. It was so much fun to see everyone walking up and down the street dressed as their favorite character.


I created a pair of *SpooKy* earrings for my friend and I thought I would share how easy it was.
I found this pack of skeletons at Archivers, sprayed them with walnut ink by Tsukinek, drilled a tiny hole in his head (he said he didn't mind...) and inserted a bronze jump ring.

On a bronze headpin I made a eyelet at one end, then slipped on a bead cap, orange crystal bead, a vintage rhinestone and then a Swarovsky green bicone crystal. I closed the end of the wire with another eyelet and then hooked the skeleton to the beads then the entire thingy to the earrings!
Presto Chango, Halloween Fun!

Happy Wednesday!
Hugs,
Terri
