Trick or treat!

It's October and that means it's time for Hallowe'en very soon. It was an obvious choice for our Jewelry Artisans Community blog ring.

Since I didn't make any Hallowe'en jewelry this year (well, beside the vampire fangs choker) and didn't take a picture of our decoration at work, I decided to do a little spotlight of items I found on Zibbet and and that I love.
It is a little hard to focus to be honest as I'm staring out of the window and see snow. Ok, no distractions anymore, it's time for witches, vampires, ghosts and werewolves.

One of my most favorite Hallowe'en stories of all time (besides the Mary Poppins one that I already told you about in an earlier post) is a Donald Duck cartoon. He has a big stash of candy and he's determined to not share a bit of it. His nephews are not willing to let him get away with that, how lucky for them to meet Hazel, the witch ....
I wish I could show you the video, but you know Disney and copyright ;-)

  1. Alas I'm from away so very few of the local parents bother to bring their kids to my house even thought I have way more decotations than anyone else.. and hand out good chocolate bars... only the best for my little gobblins as I know I'll get to eat most of them (insert evil cackle!)

    1. Kids still don't do that much in Germany. Last year I was not prepared and a group of kids rang the bell. They almost had to comfort me about not having anything to give them, but they were very understanding!!

  2. We're too far out in the sticks to get any little goblins either. That's a funny story, Cat.

    You found some great Halloween things at Zibbet!
