More elf ear cuffs

People are starting request theses for themselves and as gifts. These are for a coworker. Unexpected holiday cash for the win. So fun to make too.

Elf ear cuffs

Well, not to be outdone by my coworkers and their reindeer antlers, I took to Google and learned how to make Elf ear cuffs out of the massive amounts of wire made available to me by a friend at Firewheel community coffee house shortly before our move. Gonna have to get a haircut to show them off.

Spontaneous Halloween Brooms

I wanted to decorate my house for Halloween/Samhain this year, but after my extended trip to visit family in California, I didn't have the time and money to get too fancy. Luckily, a dig through our Halloween box yielded copious amounts of black plastic chain from one of my Partner's past costumes, which made a sweet garland across the porch.

But then I decided to finally doll up those old Trader Joe's Cinnamon Brooms.

What started as just a quick slapping on of appropriately themed ribbon suddenly burst into a manic crafting fit which lasted about an hour and yielded this:  




I may also have gone a little trigger happy on my old Ribbon Wreath. It's been added to since this photo.

Happy Halloween
