It is that Jolly Old Time again

Hi everyone. Buddy and I want to wish each of you a very special Holiday Season and we wish you Health, Wealth, and Happiness in the New Year.

Happy Holidays!

Ms. Santa is here...

Yes, at last, Santa has a companion for those long days between one Christmas and the next. I have just posted her on ETSY, so click on the link in the right hand column to see her in all of her glory.

I really had fun with Santa and she was even more fun. I apologize for getting her on the internet so late, but I have been battling some health issues. All is well for now. I will take break, but I will have new figures before too long. I hope these two figures bring a bit of sunshine and joy into your Holidays.

Santa is coming to town...

I am not sure how Thanksgiving came and went so fast, but it did. So now, we are into Christmas. This guy is my very first Santa. I am always so caught up in Halloween that I never seem to have time to make any Christmas goodies. This year, however, I got it into my head to make a Santa. I have so many fabulous fabrics and trims that don't get used in my Halloween projects, but are perfect for Santas.I got very excited about him while I was working on him and he puts a big smile on my face. I hope that he brings some Christmas cheer into your life as well. He is now up on ETSY for your shopping pleasure. Just click on my ETSY link on the right hand side of the page. Happy Holidays to everyone.

PS A Mrs. Santa will follow very soon.

The Big Day

Here it is at last...the big day that so many of us eagerly await each year...HALLOWEEN. Yeah! It is very wet and foggy in the Bay Area today, but that will make even spookier tonight. So, everyone, have a fabulous evening. And only 364 more days to go before we can Trick or Treat again.

More Cronies

I have posted more Cronies on ETSY. As you can see here, I have just been having a devil of a good time.  Please take a peek and see what I have been up to this Halloween season. Thanks, Chas

Only 28 Days to Go

This is the time of year when the days really fly by for me. Halloween is coming. Halloween is coming. Yeah! I am putting new figures on ETSY daily. If you would like a good giggle, check them out, just click on the link to the right. Enjoy.

This is Wilma and she will be up on ETSY later today.

Happy Halloween

The Halloween holidays are officially here, as far as I am concerned. Last Saturday was the start of the season with  the fabulous Halloween and Vine show. What a show this year! I can't tell you how great the show was...we had about 750 through the doors and everyone was buying and having a wonderfully fun time doing it. We had a new group putting on the show this year and they did a fantastic job. Congratulations on a job very well done to Lesley Papola, Stephanie Sherratt, and Dennis Haynes. Everything went so smoothly. I couldn't believe this was their first time producing this show. And all of the artists sold really well, which made all of us very happy. I can't wait until next year.

However, things started off with such a bang Saturday morning, before show time, that I only had a chance to grab a few not very good photos of my own table. All of the artists had very high quality and highly imaginative art works this year and I would love to have shared it with you, but time got away from me really quickly. So here are a few photos of my table...what appears to be a strange shade of blue velvet is actually a very pretty purple. My camera got the best of me on that.

You will notice that I showed all three of my styles of work:  the traditional "doll" figure, the very stylized figure, and the new Cronie style witches.

Some of the new Cronies will be going up on my ETSY shop very soon. One is available now, with others to follow in the next day or so.

So Happy Halloween Everybody.
