I really love Halloween decorations. I've never been a big fan of trick or treat and we have no kids, but I decorate anyway. Several friends and I had planned to have a Halloween craft day so I accumulated a ton of vintage and new papers and other items, only to have to cancel. I've made quite a few things on my own, but we'll still have
lots to work with next year.
When I retired in February my friend and co-worker Kathy made me this gorgeous bracelet. Isn't it amazing?
I told her I'd make her something, too, and she suggested something for Halloween. Well, the time has arrived. Last week we met for lunch and I gave her these:

She's from Florida and loves flamingos. There's a little tag on one of the wreath ribbons showing Alice holding a flamingo - perfect! Hope she's enjoying them!
I got the wreath idea from the Tattered Angels web site
here.
The flamingos are CLASSIC! I have never seen them done like this for Halloween! I love it!!!!! My mother used to stake these pink flamingos in the yard to get the neighbors in dither..I am going to do a set like this for her next Halloween. I will be giving you full credit on that one!! Love it! PS: Wish you lived closer, you could have hung out with me on Halloween!
