Halloween has always been my favorite holiday! Christmas is fantastic but Halloween allows us to be exactly who we want to be - no matter if we are feeling spooky, chilly, super, or villianous! I can't always dress up in a costume at my work however, so sometimes the next best thing is the accessories!
I had hip replacement surgery recently and it as been really hard to get literally - back on my feet! My creativity has taken abit of a dive, somewhat because im tired since they cut me leg off and reattached it, and partly because doing anything for any time at all wears me out and makes it ache! So Im using some friend sources to get my Spooky Mojo going at the very least!
A few years ago I had the great fun of ordering some super cool jewelry from my friend Brooke, a young artist who had been friends with Rye and who is now a friend of Reeds - her husband atually works with him!
Broomsticks earrings that came in an awesome coffin box!
I also got some hanging bat earrings....
and they all fit in the coffin box for storage when I want to put them away for a minute!
Sporting the cool broomsticks earrings! When this picture was taken I only had one set of earring holes open. When I had one of the surgeries I had to take out all my earrings and I didnt get them back in before the other holes healed up. I will be able to wear multiple pairs this year as I have been working on getting the holes back open and healed again since my hip surgery!
As if that wasnt enough - I have these amazing Ravens with black stone hearts and the silver moons with beautiful pink quartz hanging in the centers! The creativity of all of these designs is really amazing! I also have a wonderful cauldron necklace as well but the pictures of it are not available in my darn cloud for some reason! Ill update when I can find those again!
The gifts come delivered (to me at least) in these super cool gift bags! I live close enough and know the artist that I sometimes get "special delivery". You can check out her newest designs here at her Etsy store WanderlustGemsAK or on her facebook page Wanderlust here! She has new stuff all the time - I covet most of it greatly!
And then there is this..... you know I can't be all the way out of the hockey world, even though I am mostly out now that our lives have taken a different direction and since I had a hip replace and can't go far at a time right now! All my hockey moms know what this means! Also, since its a hockey shirt - its not breaking any Spooky rules! Brooke did not make the shirt but everything else you see on this blog is her creations! Check her out!
I hope you have wonderful friends to help you celebrate your favorite holidays in a way that works for you (and your bosses), and that you have creative friends to help you get through times when you might not be feeling the create from the Universe!
Stay tuned for a spooky gift blog coming up later this week - Goddess willing and the hip don't hurt!
