Halfway to Halloween Countdown: Yankee Candle Boney Bunch

Posted in decoration, halloween, home, undead, wedding, wish list with tags decoration, halloween, home, undead, wedding, wish list on April 26, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

We’re almost halfway to Halloween…who wants to celebrate?

HOW could I be such a die hard Halloween fan and have known nothing about the Yankee Candle Boney Bunch characters until finding them in an image search this year?

What an adorable collection of candle holders, figurines and other household decorative items!

And even if you don’t use them on a cake, I happen to think these happy newlyweds (newlydeads?) would make for an excellent wedding proposal (if you can’t invest in a Zombie Fortune Teller for your sweetie with spooky leanings).

Anyone have the Boney Bunch?

Dana says “go forth and look at CollowLily’s deviantART.” One should always heed the wishes of Beauty and Braiiins!

I am just floored by the custom water globes by Camryn Forrest Designs. Look at the details on these! The names–the concepts. Well done!

Emile Fiore’s Spider Webs

Artist Emil “Rocky” Fiore’s art is to set spider webs in a way to preserve them.

These are quite beautiful. In high school, I, your humble proxy poster, used to do this with white paint and transfer the webs onto my shoes and leather jacket. It never dawned on me to do this as Emil has. Check out more at his website:
