There is orange hair (made from old cheerleader pom poms) and spiders are peppered throughout the hair as well. Several years ago we had a big Halloween party at work and all the girls in my office dressed up as witches of one sort or another. This hat is the one I made for my costume that year. It was great fun and setting up my skeleton with that hat brought back some hilarious memories!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07899318999574055763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-79941777223471405492014-11-04T16:16:43.282-08:002014-11-04T16:16:43.282-08:00Thankyou, Martine - it is coming along and perhap...Thankyou, Martine - it is coming along and perhaps it won't be long before I post it!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07899318999574055763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-40528694907499860332014-11-04T16:15:48.319-08:002014-11-04T16:15:48.319-08:00Bonjour mon cher ami!

This year we had several children who sang for their treats - some of them sang "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" It was so funny and so endearing!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07899318999574055763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-62538908424951241212014-11-03T18:32:33.395-08:002014-11-03T18:32:33.395-08:00Bonjour ma chère Susan,

Cette fête vous revient entièrement ! et à juste titre lorsqu'on admire la photo de ta porte d'entrée !!...<br />J'adore le chat !...<br /><br />J'ai hâte d'admirer tes prochaines peintures en gestation.<br />Gros bisous ☂martinealisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055152925986659065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-80040387619781181432014-11-02T08:24:10.547-08:002014-11-02T08:24:10.547-08:00I love seeing the little ones in their costumes, t...I love seeing the little ones in their costumes, too, especially the very young ones who have not a clue whatsoever what Halloween is about! We don't get any out here in the countryside; instead, hay rides and fireworks are organized in the neighborhood. Hope you and your husband had a great Halloween, seeing the trick-or-treaters!

I love Halloween too, but no children live around us. It's sad. I miss it. Nevertheless, every year I pull out my witches garb and take a ride around the block on my broom--don't want to lose the knack. Sorry to hear figurative drawing is a wipe out lately. You're probably percolating and in time you'll see with what. Happy Halloween Susan.
