Dragon Baby and a Balloon

I finally made a decision about what to paint on my unique wood slice: a little gray fox waving good bye in his hot air balloon. I imagine he's on his way to the Emerald City, just like the Great and Powerful Oz.

 

In other recent news, we had a little dragon baby for Halloween. Maura loved trick-or-treating, which mostly consisted of her smiling at family members, and graciously accepting their compliments about her cuteness.

 

Fall Projects in June - Halloween Tree Ornaments

I've officially finished up my pumpkin needle felting project. I equipped each of my little, fuzzy, yellow and white pumpkins with some fishing line for hanging (using a needle to guide the line through the pumpkins), and hung them from my large "jewelry" tree. I think they're adorable! As a matter of fact, I like it so much that I started experimenting with other little ornaments for my trees. Some options are already for sale at Tangents, for those of you that like to get your fall decorations bought early :). Right now I'm concentrating on Halloween themed ornaments, because I can't seem to get that holiday out of my head for some reason. I know I just recently said hello to summer, but fall has always been my favorite, so it gets extra attention from my crafts.
