I had a challenge - shop (that's not hard) at Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores

and create a "Spooky Space."

I never back away from a challenge, but since my house is for sale,

my decorating at home is limited...so I asked my local coffee hangout (AHHH Crema!)

if I could decorate their mantel with some

DIY Tree Silhouette Art & Seasonal Decor.

I was so excited and so inspired.

You may not believe your eyes...I have another Valentines Project!

I am tickled pink with how this turned out!

And there is quite a story behind it!

Way back last year I started this project...

I loved it beyond belief.

Then I made a big mistake...

It was cold and wet outside, really cold and really wet.

I was not being careful - I was being impatient.

I thought it just need one more coat and it will be perfect...

well that perfect crackled and crinkled and ruined my sweet vase.

I may have shed a tear...or screamed.

And there was not time to start over...so I scrapped the idea.

But I had to try again...I will not be defeated

(but it may take a year...or two).
