God, is that you?

No wait, is that you, God?

I’m not sure if this gaping chasm counts as a “neckline.”

Now, this is some food I could eat. Does anyone have a copy of this?

Halfway to Halloween Countdown: Oriental Trading Co. Random Roundup

Posted in anatomy, craft, halloween, jewelry, plush, products, undead with tags , , , , , , , , on April 29, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Oriental Trading Co. has thousands of Halloween items. Here’s a goody bag of random treats I happen to like that I haven’t posted in previous roundups here or here (wow, there was some cool stuff in those old posts now that I look back!).

For the jewelry makers…
Hanging Bat Charms

Body Part Charms

Bat and Mummy Lampwork Beads

Latex Skull Balloons

Stripes!

Stickers (childhood, I miss you!)

Plus Bean Bag Bats (I have NO practical use for these…but they are just so darn cute).

Halfway to Halloween Countdown: My Pet Ghost

Posted in halloween, products, undead, you can't handle the cute with tags , , , on April 27, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

For super cheesy Halloween fare, I must admit Hallmark’s My Pet Ghost series is pretty neat.

My favorite is Maxwell McSpooky…the MAD SCIENTIST.

The bottle appears empty, until you push a button (not me in this video):

Halfway to Halloween Countdown: Yankee Candle Boney Bunch

Posted in decoration, halloween, home, undead, wedding, wish list with tags , , , , , 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?

Back From the Dead…a Little

Posted in announcement, art, undead with tags , , on April 26, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Hey folks, it’s Dana! Am I better? Can I type and talk? Not by a long shot. Recovery from my recent operation is estimated to take a year, in addition to the continuing serious troubles that have kept me bedridden and uncommunicative for the past year. And I will be contending with some potentially devastating tests and diagnoses in the coming months.

To quote Homer Simpson: “It’s like a BLT of pain…only instead of bacon, there’s agony.”

I’d like to start blogging again, though full time will most likely be impossible as of yet. I’m kind of coming back from the dead like a Zombie that needs to take naps.

I still have to rely on my wonderful proxy blogger, guest posts and the help of voice software or kind family members when I post on my own.

I’ve missed writing for the site more than I can possibly impart and apologize for still not being able to type responses to your much appreciated comments.

If you would like to help this comeback of sorts please post a link to this blog on your facebook, twitter, etc. Thank you so much for your continued support! See you soon…
