My Recent Photography Projects

My recent projects have mostly been photography sessions. Photography is something that makes me happy and the fall weather and low humidity make me want to get out and take even more pictures than usual.

Here is a little glimpse of some of the sessions that I have done recently.

Halloween decor tid bits

Do you recognize this glass??? Remember the glassware makeover I talked about? This was phase 1.

Here is it before....Isn't it beautiful in black? Take an ordinary Goodwill glass and give it a coat of black spray paint. You know, this would work in ANY color....yellow and pink in the springtime, red for summer...hmmmm...now my wheels are turning...

Can you find this jewel ...
in the picture below?
Yep, that's it on the right painted black.

In my living room I kept most of my decorating neutral, like these pumpkins in my Apothecary Jar and the mini-pumpkins above.


My dining area I decked out in black.

BOO letters are just cut out paper taped on the plates.
Brass owl painted black...
Vintage fork holding an owl I printed out last year...
Last year he was in a frame...

55 cent frame and picture I spray painted black (um you'd think I would have thought to say "Eeek" or something BESIDES "BOO"!).

Have to throw in some cute stuff for my Sweet Girl!



Want to see more? Check out Christina's and my decor from last year here.

Spooktacular

Guest post by our little sis Rebekah who is currently at UGA studying Ag Ed.


In a college town Halloween is a BIG deal, even if you are in a small town in south Ga! So I've found some cheap thing at flea markets and the Dollar Tree to get the house ready for our Halloween party next week.

My roommate and I live in an old historical house which already sets the mood for the season!






Before anyone starts thinking "How does a college student afford that kind of a place?" let me confess that we just rent one of the downstairs apartments!






After entering into our haunted place the witch of the house will great you with creepy surprise and treats!





As you make your way into the room you will encounter other wickedly wonderful delights!



















This little guy came from the Dollar Tree.

























No haunted house is complete without skeletons and graves!




Everything that you see here was gotten at a flea market, thrift store, or Dollar Tree.

























Kinda spoooky to most people is that the steer head normally adorns our coffee table and is not a seasonal item to us! In our defense it has an appeal for those of us that are fortunate enough to have a love and passion for Agriculture.














However, its been super easy to make it even spookier for the season!



















I decided to take the dried flowers that I've saved from my boyfriend and turn them into a lonely neglected display you would find in an abandoned house!


























As we move on through the house we make our way into the kitchen. Here you are welcomed by the daily menu at the "Pumpkin Heads Deadly Diner"!
























In this kitchen you never know what you're going to get served!
















We just might gross you out with our cooking ingredients.....jellylike eyeball... one squishy brain...fresh heart

















Well, I hope ya'll have enjoyed the little tour of our haunted house, I must chop it off here because that is as far as I've gotten!

Have a Happy Spooktacular Halloween!

SCARY!

Gold tree anyone????

sacrytree5

I saw this in the spring time and remembered the Pottery Barn trees from last Halloween that were around $59. Isn't that SCARY????????? Forget ghosts and goblins, I say scary is overpriced spooky trees. :)

Coat gold $2.92 Goodwill tree with some black paint and voila...you have your own
spooky tree without the scary price.
