October CupboardScape

 

I am so excited about 

this month's CupboardScape.

I hope you like what I did.

My mom made this wreath.

This skeleton was also my mom's,

but she did not make it.

I always like to bring out my pumpkins.

Whether faux like the ones above.

Or the real McCoy's like these next two.

This next piece is my absolute favorite

Halloween item ever.

Am finally showing it off.

Both my friends along with my family

also loved this

Halloween at

Hawk Run Hollow.

I finally framed it last month.

Chose this black one with

sparkly silver in it.

Here are some close up pics of each block.

I apologize for the glare.

 The block with the scarecrow,

I changed up a bit.

Using my graph paper I made

the plain orange pumpkin

into a black Halloween one.

Then I changed two other pumpkins

to black as well.

This was stitched on

32 ct Stormy Night Lugana linen

using all the called for DMC floss.

I started this piece  

 October 29, 2023.

I finished it on 

September 28, 2024

When Debbie my framer from

Hobby Lobby called me to let

me know it was ready for pick up...

she told me if I ever want to get rid

of this, she would like it.

That won't be happening.

In other news,

King Bob decided to order

a dumpster the day he wanted

me to get my Christmas bins

out of the garage..

Did not know this until he called

me 10 minutes before it arrived.

He had to go to the store before we started,

and I guess the dumpster guy called him.

I was oblivious to this.

We spent two days cleaning out

his garage.

I went from being a queen 

to a servant of the KING. 

We filled that dumpster.

The garage is still pretty much full.

What the heck Bob?

He even burned stuff that was messed up.

I ended up throwing away one 

Christmas tree because I could not

find all of the branches.

However at least now all of my 

Autumn & Christmas bins are in one place.

Friday and Saturday morning it was foggy here,

and the freighters were blowing their horns.

I always enjoy hearing them.

You know by the sound of each horn,

whether it is a short or long freighter.

The longer ones have more of a bellow

or a bass tone.

The shorter freighter have a higher tone.

Both so cool though.

October Weekend Blessings To All!
