These are the old birdcages I bought at the thrift stores. I spray painted them all black.
This chalkboard was a frame from a thrift store. I took it apart and sprayed the glass with chalkboard paint.
A rat in one of the cages.
This pair of candlesticks was originally green and gold.
The ravens flew the coop!
The black metal mask is another thrift shop find. It's funny how many things in thrift shops don't look like much when you first find them.
This rubber cockroach scared the crap out of me. I would jump and shriek and see it two minutes later and do the same thing. I was in the yard by myself screaming and then laughing at myself over and over.
These guys are really ugly.
The "clock" was a silver tray thrift find which I painted with chalkboard paint.
I really like mixing black mat things with black glossy ones.
This metal tree is the brown and green one i showed you a while ago. I actually regret painting it. I should have left it the way it was because it really would have been great for fall. This tree taught me to look at things for a few days before rushing to paint them.
The metal witch hat was pink and purple. It looks much more serious painted black.
I like using white pumpkins with black objects. And the light green pumpkins like the one behind the cage are very eerie.
Oops....pumpkin delivery!!!!*Halloween Memories: As a kid, the worst thing that could happen on Halloween was rain or really cold weather. I remember having to walk through puddles while balancing my umbrella and trying to keep my treat bag dry. I also remember having to cover my costume with a big heavy coat and being so disappointed.

Hope you are having an awesome day!☼
Yes everything changes caracter when changing colors. I especially like the birdcages, with or without inhabitants :-)
Have a great day now!
Christer.
You just amaze me!
Thanks for your kind comment about my cat Fagan's passing. I hope your puppy is feeling better!
Here in Greece we go carol singing the morning of Christas eve, and although we do n't get candy treats, we get money instead. So of course this turns into a competition of who makes more money. The parents and grandparents are supposed to give us the most! We woke up early and came back home noon, all tired and happy!
I remember that when the weather was too cold, or rainy they did n't allow us to go out. It felt like the worst possible thing!

I do remember some rainy Halloween night's and some really cold nights where we had to wear coats over our costumes. Bummer.
I think that seeing your closed pool, the fallen leaves, all the black steel and iron pieces... it's time for a garden party at your house !
There is this little tiny crack at the threshold that allows them to just walk in and off to the kitchen floor they go. I'm in Texas so you can imagine the size.
Cool stuff today, love Poe.
