Garage Sale Treasures All For Under $5.00
My mom and I went to a neighborhood garage sale today. We braved the rain and the cold so I could add to my Halloween collection. Today I was on the lookout for interesting glass bottles to add to my potions display I want to make. I was also looking for some interesting things to add to our table setting. I found a silver plate, a silver chaffing dish, and glass and silver salt and pepper shakers. Hopefully all of this will add to the creepy elegance look I am after. As I am sure most people are aware of Virlena is not a big fan of stuff. I know she was concerned before we left about what I would be bringing back. I think she was quite happy with my purchases though. It may have even put her in the Halloween spirit this afternoon. After my mom left we really didn't have anything to do until dinner so she suggested we work on some Halloween Projects. I started trying to turn one of our cheap Big Lots skeletons in to a semi-rotting corpse. I am mainly finished latexing the head and I just started the body. The body has a long way to go.
