Back home from the Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween show - - -

 Greetings, all!
Just one short snippet of thanks here...

    ***Got home late last night from our week-long whirlwind autumn road trip (of which we traversed close to 1800 miles across the country). The culmination, of course, was the wonderful, marvelous, amazing, incredible, magical Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween show in Michigan. 

    ***A show we participate in, and look forward to for 365 days every year. We LIVE for it! A place where old friends and new gather under one roof to share fun, humor and love interspersed with the most heavenly hand-crafted art you could imagine. A show that ends way too soon, in my humble opinion... and I know everyone who has attended will agree with this statement.

    ***Cannot begin to express my thanks here - finally got to meet so many wonderful lovely fans of the magazine, it made my head spin like a top. 😃 I will post fully in here in the days to come (right now, still completely deliriously overtired). - But for now, a simple offering of my sincere love and deepest gratitude to the woman who brings this loving event into being. - - -> Thank you, Jennie Hepler-Takens, for inviting me into the fold, and for continuing this extraordinary tradition. 

    ***I remain thrilled and honored to be a part of it, and especially so this year because I finally own a piece of Jennie's original art, which spoke to me the moment I laid eyes on it. Everything she creates comes from her very heart and soul - And anyone who knows me knows that I ❤ love ❤ pumpkins and skellies.

- Rest assured, you all know it will be showcased in the most reverential way among my collection of Halloween art.   

Art by Jennie Hepler-Takens, 'My Dearest Witch'
