I have been working hard on banners and such for the Glitterfest show and here are two of the banners which are complete. Unfortunately I only own a point and shoot camera and the photos are not as good as I would like...in person they are really charming and have lots of texture.
This first one is the BOO banner. It is sewn onto a gold tassel fringe and is made using illustrations from a vintage children's halloween book. There are felt flowers, glitter, vintage cupcake toppers and more used to embellish it.

I love this image of the child wearing big gloves and a pumpkin head!

You gotta have a tiger costume....



Next is my WICKED garland. This baby is a witch themed garland using fun vintage images of witches. This garland is sewn onto a black opal bead fringe and decorated with lace, buttons, glitter and more:

These banners are really cute!
Nope I'm not in the year of color nor in any Halloween swap. I am so busy with doing things I should have done months ago as well as redecorating the childrens' rooms and some decluttering, so I decided not to swap for a while. Hope all is fine with you and your mother. xoxo LiLi
Love how you've added stitching to your banners- that is a great touch.

That stitching is a great touch, and I love the spider web lady image!
Hey, sorry, looks like I left the exact same observation as my best friend, Beth did! Guess we think a lot alike.
The detail is amazing...and just so festive! Thanks for sharing
