Vintage Halloween decorations and new

A few of us gals went to a really fun vintage Halloween sale at the Two Women shop!
They really put on a great spread!
Lots of very delicous goodies...hot cider and the best decorations ever. 
I got this paper lantern...I was really looking for things I don't have...and I happily got some! 
I have always wanted this cat on the honeycomb...I have seen it in books but never came across it.

I also got this super cool black cat...love the scared face. 
This is new...but looks so vintage...a great poster..only 3.50. 
The first 20 people got swag bags...my daughter and I shared it.
It had cards, soap, a fox box, cat pendant, lip balm and more!!
I felt lucky to get to have gotten one! 
The window displays were great!
They have a real knack for it. 
Sorry for the glare...but everything was so spooky! 
Candy corn in a giant glass container. 
I was really liking the crow on the skull....but I have something like it already. 
Look at the cool owl container. 
lovely colors... 
Copper pumpkins... 
Cool trays! 
This kitty cat is reaching out...sweet

Everywhere you looked there was cool things...I went through it several times seeing new things each time. 
Glitter...you can't go wrong with glitter. 
The tray looked vintage but things were clearly labeled...which is nice.
Next time it will be their Christmas open house....yay! 
Pumpkins....at Albertson's!!!
They really displayed well too! 
This is a Knucklehead pumpkin...I love it!

Halloween fun and collecting


I love this time of year!
All the Halloween is coming out of the wood work!
Above is a hexie display of a few of my designs.
I bought this fabulous drawing on muslin from Michelle Palmer...she is fantastic!
You can see and buy originals here!
She usually sells them on muslin...in a plain rectangle...so you can do what you want with it.
Sometimes she takes a vintage linen table mat or doily and draws on it....so cool.
I decided to make a mini quilt with the artwork.
Here it is all finished....I am going to put it in my kitchen....I love making something for myself for a change.
I got a few vintage collectibles at my favorite antique store....
this accordion style cat...love him!
There was a booth that had quite a bit..but I already had some of the items...I love collecting.
Yikes...scary witch!
She is part of a vintage costume...this is sort of a skirt/apron....I might put it on my mannequin...and if if doesn't fit I may pin it on the mannequin.
This costume was fierce!
It came with this cape too!
Now for Target dollar deals...this is a fun pompom garland for 3 bucks.
I love pompoms. 
The cool mini or small ornaments are also from target.  I wanted the eyeballs the most.
This was a whole dollar....at dollar tree!
This is like the skeletons that unfold and you can hang them...she looks just like Mrs. Munster! 
Treat boxes at the dollar store....so cute! 
I got this crazy glitter mouse at value village.
And these are a few new addition to my MrsTiddlemouse etsy shop...
a mini pin...OCT 31. 
Zombie tags and halloween flash cards. 
Fall polka dot mouse 
Bottle cap lil witch pin.
There is much more too.

I better get taking my walk....the day is passing me by!
See ya!
