If your Halloween style is more sophisticated spooks than guts and gore, prepare to be charmed. Not only are these decorating ideas the perfect balance of creepy and cool, but they’re also almost effortless—making them even more enchanting. Above: Add a playful paper mask or a giant witch’s hat to a family photo or painted portrait, as shown above from Country Living. We recommend taping paper accessories to the frame or a glass front to avoid damaging your art.
These wonderful hair pins are a real piece of jewelry. They are hair forks for french twists or buns, made of very thick jeweler's brass, that will hold your hair in place and amaze everyone. You put them on in a few seconds, just with a twist of the hand. Unlike hair ties, they avoid hair damage and are carefully handcrafted to follow the shape of your head for maximum holding. You have a choice between gold brass, antiqued brass (almost black) with only specs of gold shining through the hammered design, antiqued /brown with a fun Boho style and love written all over it or black hammered with gold details. Choose your style in the menu. Gold, black, Love love love or black & Gold. Please note that the pieces worn on the pictures are not the ones you will receive. Best suited for medium to long hair. Each piece is unique and may differ slightly from the picture that you see. Every new creation is a celebration! I just love to think of a new idea and then get to work and achieve the image I have in my head. Every piece of hair jewelry you buy has been handformed, heated, hammered, soldered, polished and sealed with love. I know you will enjoy wearing it as much as I enjoyed making it. If you are anything like me, once you try it, you will wonder how you could have lived without it and will want more designs to match your moods and/or your outfits! Care: It is always best to avoid water contact and/or store in high humidity areas. Wipe it clean regularly with a soft cloth. Dimensions: Length : 3 1/2 to 4 inches for medium long hair, 4.5 in and 5 in for very long and thick hair (in the drop down menu). The model on the pictures is wearing the 4 inch model. Width: Approximately 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 inches Materials: Jeweler's brass Sealant Check out some other models here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BTouchCreations?ref=shop_sugg§ion_id=22772840 Photos are taken closely to show you the details of the jewelry. Sometimes the pieces will appear larger on your screen than they are in real life. Please read the descriptions for approximate measurements and check with a ruler if necessary. Please note that brass is a natural material. With use, even if protected by a sealant it will oxidize and turn a darker color, a patina. If you don't want the antique look, use 00 steel wool to clean it and/or a brass cleaner and seal again to slow down the darkening of the piece. For all international buyers, you are responsible for any customs fees or taxes your package may require upon entering your country. I know you will be happy with the piece as each one I make is carefully crafted. Don't hesitate to contact me with any concerns or questions, I truly want my customers to be pleased. ☺️ Thanks for looking!
With photography by Mandy Evans Photography and design by Abby Mitchell Events , there's something so inspiring, so creative, and ...
First of all, a big bear hug on passing the mark on 20K followers on Instagram and almost 7K on Facebook. So far it has been surreal and exciting journey filled with glory and gooseflesh in equal measure. However, learning and exploring has never ended. While staying true to our roots, I want to push the creative envelope and provide with the best and distinctly unique posts (implying I have a wonderful home tour line up). I am so grateful for the phenomenal support over the years. For all the people who have looked through my passion to help them choose their home décor stories, I am humbled, touched and incredibly thankful. As you all already know that I’m a sucker for a themed party. Maybe it’s because of the fact that I love decorating and designing spaces but I also think I’m drawn to this kind of parties because it brings out inner happiness, positivity and vibrancy in me. Think about it, have you ever seen a themed celebration and thought it looked boring? I don’t think so. You just can’t help but be in a good mood when you are surrounded by vibrant colors, good food and of course great company. So, given a chance again, I pounced on an opportunity to organize one at home for the upcoming ‘Holi’ festival. When it comes to this festival of vivacity which is so vibrant, cheerful, and festive, you can never be verve enough. I decided to choose the quirkiest and the most colorful ambiance I can go for! I brought out all the brass pots & colors I had and played around with the setting and voila...the center piece was created in less than few minutes. When everything about Holi is as vivacious it could be, having a dull ambiance can make your Holi party a major disappointment amongst your guests. Keeping the same thoughts in my mind, I incorporated a whimsical set-up with the help of my traditional danglers and marigold garlands to create an aura that would be perfect for Holi celebrations. I opted for a multicolored theme and added in beautiful and colorful paper flowers that complement the theme well. These paper flowers have been collected over the time from Michael’s and have been used abundantly in my many other décor parties but they are just perfect for adding more colors. I think that’s the main key for a great party design. Don’t worry about every little detail instead work toward creating spaces that have a big impact. Adding a festive interior spice always makes the on-going festivity of chiming cocktails, devouring Holi delicacies and delicious tête-à-têtes into a memorable one. Tiny details add up to make parties truly unforgettable. These simple, on theme, quick, easy and cheap plates made a big statement on the overall setting. By adding a clear tape, I painted the foil paper plate to splash some more colors and it worked out brilliantly. It was a serious shortcut that I think anyone could use for adding more color. Be it Holi or Diwali, with the weather as appalling as ours, my whole attention turns indoors, where I take great pleasure in entertaining because there is no better place to be than home for any celebration. My ultimate canvas of this bay window has taken on so many entertaining identities over the years, yet again won to bowl everyone over. When you work with creativity consistently, you are able to reuse stuff from project to project because items picked with versatility in mind. Just changing the accents they go with creates a totally different and new look. The ultimate party favor was my 'Thandai' flavored kulfi but oh, hang on, there was something else ;). You know that we go far and beyond the usual when it comes to theme parties hence the post can not be officially completed without inserting our colorful selves here. I like to set the tone right out of the gate, which for me means, a beautifully dressed us in welcoming the guest on the song of “Rang Barse”. After all, it’s the first glimpse of what lies in the future and I like to give guests a taste of what’s to come. These festivals graciously allow us to remember old days especially to those who are far away from India, where any celebration of any festival is always at the peak. These little pleasures just make you forget your worries and jive to the inner rhythm of life, isn’t it? So, make a splash with these ideas for your next high voltage themed event and bag away all the applaud. Until we meet again, stay connected and enjoy all the festivities at your end, toodles! To see how I change the same space on different festivals, themed parties or occasions...see here for my South Indian Themed Diwali Party or here and here for Valentine Fun parties.

This Wooden Spiral Candle Holder from Grimms Spiel & Holz of Germany allows families to bring a Waldorf tradition home, and is sure to create cherished memories of family traditions for your child for years to come. Eight wooden pieces form the spiral. Each segment has three holes to hold our Brass Candle Holders and Grimms Wooden Birthday Decorations (decorations and brass holders are not included but can be purchased separately). To use during Advent, one can add and light a new candle each night from December 1 to 24, lighting the final candle on Christmas Eve, starting from the outside of the spiral, working inward toward the center. Alternatively, one candle can move space at a time through the spiral during the 24 nights of Advent. Another lovely tradition is to incorporate Ostheimer's Mary and Donkey and Joseph figures, and have them move through the spiral nightly as each candle is lit. During the rest of the year, this wooden spiral does double-duty as a birthday ring, and the extra holes can be filled with our wooden birthday decorations from Grimm's. NOTE: This item is not a toy and is intended for decorative purposes only. Candles should not be burned in this spiral without the use of our Brass Candle Holders. Designed to be used with our 1/2-inch Birthday Ring Beeswax Candles. Birthday Cake Candles are too small for this item. Adult supervision must always be used when candles are lit. Should be kept out of reach of children under 3. For family use (adult supervision must always be used when candles are lit) Age: For decorative use onlySafety: This is not a toy.

~May the God of hope fill you with joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. _Romans 15:13 This is a Lent spiral is homemade with a beautiful piece of oak and was created with the magical time of advent in mind. It has 40 holes and come in 8 pieces so it may be used for Advent, seasonal countdowns, birthday's as well as for Lent this is a very versatile celebration spiral. Light a candle each night leading up to that very joyous day of celebration. While it's burning we read through a chapter of Luke, or we read through the names of Jesus, (every year we do something different.) For birthday celebrations we all take turns and tell 1 special thing about that person. For our family it's a time to slow down from the busyness of the holiday season to come together and focus on what really matters and remember how blessed we truly really are. This will be an heirloom piece that will be a start to a beautiful family tradition and be passed down to your children's children along with it's beautiful memories! Specifics: *Measure 13 at it's widest point * 8 pieces to create the spiral shape *All my spirals now include 1 brass insert so you are able to use your new spiral right away. For our family we used 1 brass insert and just moved a single candle around the spiral each night. We did this until I was able to save enough money to purchase the rest of the brass inserts. *Each hole is 1.7cm to accommodate the traditional brass candle inserts as well as Advent/Birthday numbers and ornaments made in Germany which measure 1.6cm. *Made to order. Ships in 10 business days but I can try to accommodate an earlier ship date if needed. *Does NOT include candles *These spirals are all hand cut and sanded. All the edges have been rounded to give a nice soft clean look. *I wood burn the Roman numeral on the corner bottom of each piece to show the order of the spiral pieces. *They've been finished with a homemade natural homemade lacquer of grapeseed oil and lavender infused beeswax cream.
