I'm officially done with all roofers and all ceiling fixer/painter guys for the rest of my life. I have a lifetime guarantee on this work, you know.
So I have started bringing out some of my fall stuff.
You'll be happy to know that Kate has finally made it off the kitchen counter.
I made these ghosts by painting some small dried gourds with heirloom white spray paint,
painting two eyes and a mouth with black craft paint (look, I can paint circles)
and throwing some cheesecloth over them.
It doesn't get simpler than that.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend. It was a unseasonable chilly here, but the nip in the air definitely got me in a autumnal mood. Unfortunately, both my Buckeyes and Browns lost this weekend. We're used to the Browns losing, but the Buckeyes losing is a harder pill to swallow.

Hello,
I visited your blog today - I saw you on 'French Buttons.' Your photos are so pretty, and your blog is charming. I love the old typewriter and all your Halloween decorations. Me and my daughters started a new blog, and we would love it if you could visit us and follow. I would enjoy coming back to visit with you. Your photos are so unique and wonderful, and I am leaving here today with a smile. I hope to hear from you, and have a lovely week.

Those ghosts are so cute! I love the little "sheets" over them. Perfect for halloween.
Your typewriter is absolutely swoon worthy! Gorgeous.

Pam, luv your little ghosties covered in spider webs! I have yet to make my ghosts- I use cheese cloth and fabric stiffener. I need to get to work on those! The only bad thing is that our rainy Ohio weather always deflates them when I put them outside! Why aren't I back in New Mexico? LOL
Are you going to the barn sale this weekend? Did I ask you that already? I am losing my mind these days... *grin* Sue

I could only handle watching half the game today. It was pretty depressing. I think it is going to be a very long season for Buckeye fans.
I love, love, LOVE your ghosts!

Glad it has calmed down at your house. I love those darling gourd ghosts! Really cute! This weather has really sucked the last 2 days....yesterday more than today. My husband and son left the game early yesterday. They were chilled to the bone from the wet mist and wind on C Deck! Let's hope things get better for the Buckeyes!~Hugs, Patti
