This is one of my three driveway lights all dressed up for Halloween. The garland and bow were easy. The ghost face took a little time to figure out. At first I just wanted to take a permanent marker and draw the face on the globe. Knowing I was not going to be able to replace all three lights after the fun was over and Halloween was past, I had to come up with a better idea. I settled on using black fabric with an adhesive backing to cut out the eyes and howling mouth. So far so good. Hopefully it will peel off easily. My sister had the idea to leave the faces on and just dress them up as singing choir boys for Christmas. That's actually not a bad idea. What do you think?
This is a place for me to show you what I love to do and things I love to look at. I am overwhelmed by the number of great artist out there and I want to use this space to document what I find and where it all takes me with my own creativity. I'm looking for my inspiration and I will show you where and how it comes to me. Hopefully, it will ring true for you as well and the gift will be passed on.
