day 280 - Trick-or-treat!

A cool (and GINORMOUS!) pumpkin we saw while out trick-or-treating.
(Notice the little pumpkin, that's also carved, between it's teeth!)

Day 279 - final touch..

Okay, this is the finishing touch for Emmy's InuYasha costume.
This "fang" necklace. I purchased the wooden beads but had to
handcraft the "fangs" from sculpy clay and bake them.
Oh...then I "glazed" the fangs in glow-in-the-dark fingernail polish (heehee).
I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

"Got my pumpkins Mom!"

The only photo I didn't take; my mom-in-law did but I loved the feel of it.

I did a radial blue on it to tune into his face.

Day 272 - I love this

I don't know why...but I love this.
Something about the light hitting the street pole
and the crisp silouettes of the houses,
the weird fisheye-ish look and the sunbeams.

Day 262 - if you like Pina Coladas

Well, how about miniature Margaritas?
This one sits atop my computer monitor and measures just over an inch.
Believe it or not, it was an "accessory" to a Bratz doll.
Great.

Anywho...
