Fall in New England












Here are a few pictures from our trip to New England last week. It was absolutely spectacular. This was my first trip to see the trees and it won't be my last. We went to 6 different states and most were at peak color.

Halloween Decorating at My House

My lighted case with antiques and collectibles....it changes seasonally!
My 6" lighted Halloween Tree with my collection of Radko ornaments.
This doesn't look very big but the opening is 10' x 3' x 2'. It's the perfect spot to hold my Dept. 56 Halloween Village.
This twin-sized Halloween quilt was designed and pieced by me.
Cool lampshade, eh? I found this at Dragonfly Design Studios
