You may remember the post I did about pulling out my bin of red, white and blue for 4th of July crafting.
Today it was time to pull out my designated Halloween black and orange bin. I FINALLY started in on my Halloween goodies today.
I love getting the bin out and seeing what I have collected throughout the year that will make its way into my Halloween creations. Kind of like an eye spy in black and orange!
A lucky year with spun heads. I love the "Glo Tye" ribbon spool.
Black cats and scary masks.
Can't wait to work some Magpie Ethel magic out in the studio.
Happy Day!
I have a shelf waiting....have fun! I hope it cooled off for you. Smiles...Renee

Laurie,
What a fun assortment! I've been making (and thankfully selling!) Halloween in my Etsy for a couple of weeks now, love crafting for Halloween.
I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Laurie, I love orange and black together. I really like the little scarecrows! I have never seen those.
You did get a lot of Halloween spun heads and I, too, can't wait to see your creations.
I even have a few Halloween spun heads. I am rubbing my two creative brain cells together to see what I can come up with! . . . . . . Nothing yet.
Happy creating,
Mary B.

I picked up some of those black and white houndstooth rosettes on clearance at Michael's with Halloween in mind too! Great minds think alike. :)

The expressions on those spun head witches and goblins are hilarious. And I'm pretty sure you're the only perosn I know with a bunch of eyeballs on wire. All the better for the Ethel magic! ;-)

Black magic has nothing on Magpie Magic! I adore Halloween and can't wait to see what you put on Etsy. Your pictures make me drool a little....

I love the way you hide your stash away so it's all new come crafting time. That has to be SO much fun when you open up those bins. Do you peek when you put something else in??

Laurie,
What a fabulous collection of orange and black. Love Halloween, it is second only to Christmas in my house to decorate for. (thats probably true for most people actually) Love it. Cant wait to get a new halloween spun head gal (or ghoul) to add to my collection!
