The Demon Crashed the Witches' Yuletide Ball!

This year I created my own holiday wreath to go with my black and red tree with red lights. My husband bought a sugar skull mold, which we used to mold plaster skulls. Then I painted all of them and made the wreath, with the help of Houdini. He wasn't too pleased about having his picture taken this year.

You can view the entire painted skull collection here:

And here is my completed wreath. I am sure my neighbors in the apt. building think I am crazy, but I have an Attack Cat up all year round and a doormat that says: Leave. They must be used to my odd sense of humor by now. *wink*

Day of the Dead Skulls and The Witches' Yuletide Ball on December 10, 2011

Well, I finally got around to painting my Day of the Dead skulls for my black Christmas Wreath this year. I'll be posting the picture of the wreath on December 10th for The Witches' Yuletide Ball. I am sure one of my many characters from my stories would approve both of the ball and the yuletide wreath. You can read more about Dia de los Muertos on my previous blog post. Hopefully, the pictures and tradition will inspire some great from writing from all of you, if they haven't already.
