Since we have red accents in our house,
I found myself in a dilemma.
How to decorate for Halloween..............
I did not want to go out and buy new curtains
and pillows........
so here is what I did.....

Well, they landed on our dining room chandelier,
in our entrance foyer - breakfast room -
confering on the ledger,
Crowella and little Hester took up residence
in our home.

I fitted her on to an old dress form.
Her hat came from HomeGoods and was
actually a cone to hang.
The jacket is as antique.
I draped old tobacco netting around her

keeping Crowella on her toes.
She is never without her little pet crow
named Caw-caw.

no longer with us.
presence until she flies to another abode.
We will continue this trip next time
and this time there will be.......ORANGE too.
Everyone, have a happy Fall Season.
