More Halloween, Apples, Custom Orders & a Giveaway...CLOSED

I have been busy this week creating Halloween decorations and custom orders.

Last week, I listed some of my new Halloween Creations in my shop and changed my blog banner. This week I have some more...
I am looking forward to apple picking in a few weeks. I created a little apple tree set, with 2 trees & 2 mini apples. These would be perfect in a terrarium or on your desk. The bigger tree is only 1.5 inches tall.

I was also contacted by Sew Cute Shop to create something for her to display her item's prices. She wanted her flower logo on them....

This is what I created for her...
Please contact me if there is something you would like to buy, but is not listed in my shop. I will make sure to list it for you.

Ok, and now finally for the giveaway. I was playing around with some rubber letter stamps I bought and made this Halloween sign. It measures 4 x 1.75 inches and has an orange grosgrain ribbon for hanging.
