z is for zebra

z is for zebra


I really do love the idea of Halloween- books holding special powers, magical elixers, black cats and full moons, and even the possibility of stumbling upon secret hidden curiosity shops. Of course every Halloween ends up being a little bit less then enchanting, but I think this year I'll try and put a little more effort into enjoying the evening. The above photostrip is my first attempt at participating in the festivites - next up, conjuring some sort of costume so that I don't have to fall back to good 'ol plan B again (the same silly mouse costume I stitched up a few years ago)

PS As I was typing this post my roommate was messing around with a little harmonium on our dining room table. I made him record a spooktacular sound clip for all to enjoy!

  7. The sound clip is just great! I've never really done Halloween before, but this year I have decided to go as a pagan priestess. I'm just in the process of putting together a necklace from a sparrows wings.

  10. I'd be lying if I said those pictures didn't scare me a little bit, hehe.

    I'm a total sucker for halloween. I have a love/hate relationship with being scared. Unfortunately I have to house sit this halloween, but hope you have a fun time!

  11. Haha! I love it! Genuis! :) I think Halloween is one of my top three holidays that are my favorite. Just more reason to eat candy! Plus, I love all the old scary stories being told. :)

    I can't wait for the listings!
