Masquerade Ball

A couple of years ago, I was in Vivian's Halloween Shadow Box swap. I never posted photos of the box I made, and decided to share them with you now. I did mine as a Marie Antoinette Masquerade Ball theme:I hung a crystal mini chandelier from the ceiling, she had lovely velvet drapes, glittered pumpkins, and a picture of herself (of coarse)!!

I decided she had to have a cake.....after all, it was Marie Antoinette. Have a wonderful Halloween.

More Crafting goodies....

Just thought I'd share a few more projects that are in the process of being completed.

A cute little Christmas light....all glitter and sweetness!!

I need to add some vintage bells, greenery and ribbons, and this sweet star will be done.

I used gorgeous vintage wallpaper to cover this beauty. The edge is vintage crepe paper, and the center has this gorgeous glittered star. I can't decide what else to put on it...it needs something....what do you think?

Missing In Action......

I have been a very bad blogger.....As you can see from the chaos in my craft room, I have been a very busy girl. I am getting ready for a big craft fair in November.....I am also having a big open house at my home, and will be selling crafts, along with other wonderful vendors. Ugh....so much to do.

You can't see the surface of my table.....the glitter is flying.

Just a few Christmas houses waiting for trees and snowmen to be glued on.

Ornaments, ornaments, and more ornaments. Lots of cupcakes hiding in the boxes.

Bags and bags of goodies that need to be assembled. Well, Have a super wonderful day. Fall has finally arrived here in Colorado.
