Donchya just LOVE Tulle????

This time of year it is so important to add some tulle to your wardrobe for Halloween Costumes and Holiday Parties and Impromptu Tipsy Interpretations of the Nutcracker.

You just never know when you might need a some Tulle. 

 

I had plans to do a little tutorial on how to make a tulle skirt.

A white one with and elastic waistband and a black one with a satin sash waistband. 

But this tulle was being such a beatch that it turned into quite a tussle. A Total Tulle Tussle. 

 I kinda lost it. This was not the adorable DIY that I had planned.

So I scrapped the DIY. This type of thing happens more frequently than I'd like to admit.

I'll probably wear the black tulle over a skirt and the white tulle under. Maybe. Who knows.

Anyhoo....I decorated a Halloween Cake.

I am capable of making beautiful cakes. This is Not one of them.

mmmm....cake.

After my Tulle misadventure I Deserve Cake. Yes I Do. 

And Since it's Halloween let me tell you about my deep abiding love for Edward Gorey.

I love him so much! I'm sad that he is gone because I just want MORE Edward St. John Gorey!

The Gashlycrumb Tinies is one of my favorites.

I actually bought this little book for my kids when they were younger.

 I made certain that interspersed with Flopsy Bunnies and Madeline they had a healthy dose of Edward Gorey, Tim Burton and Lemony Snicket.

Hey, I'm just providing them with material for future therapy sessions.

You can see the whole book HERE. 

 

C is for CONNIE who ate too much cake

 

 

I'm off to crash the Halloween Party at Mis Papelicos' Share-in-Style
