Look what's arrived...

...at Ametista Dark Decor

          Mad Hatter Tea Party Vase

Beelzebird Couple Sienna and Sage

and....

      Nightmare Before Christmas - Mini Jack Skelley Snowman

My other creative side is well some would say "a little on the dark side".  I'm in business with a fabulous creative friend and we try to, for the most part, recycle items in our creations.  For instance, the mini Jack Skelley's are made from a string of lights that went bad and the Mad Hatter Tea Party Vase, is three vintage silver pieces from a mixed match tea set (2 sugar bowls and one creamer).  We had the bottoms drilled out of the top two and fused them all together to make this one of a kind vase...well we might make more if we find the right pieces.

I just wanted to share some of the other things I do.  I also take all the photos for our business and Carrie edits them.

Treacherous Tea Set - Tea Box

A little paint, our original photo, scrapbook paper, ribbon, mod podge and voila...a delightfully dark tea box.

Counting down to....

Halloween!

This is just the start of our Halloween decor or if you're a bit on the dark side all the time decor, "Midnight Flight Vampire Bat" set of four napkin rings.  Click here if you'd like to see more views.

Halloween is my favorite holiday and it's creeping up on us fast.  My business partner and I throw a big party every year one for the kids and then one for just us adults...and yes, we all dress in costumes.  Its so much fun.

What do you do for Halloween?  Any cool suggestions for decorating or themes for parties?  I'd love to hear them.

Coming soon to Ametista Dark Decor....

At one the town's square teemed with life,
The second chime brought roil and strife,
When three rang forth the bell tower shook,
At four o'clock the devil cooked,
Five saw ashes cloud the light,
Six, the moon shone black as night,
The witch's cat shrieked loud at seven,
At eight dripped blooded rains from heaven,
Nine o'clock brings ghoulish cries,
And ten sees children's bulging eyes,
Eleven curses scour the fields,
When midnight chimes death's harvest yields,
Which leads us to the 13th hour,
Best go inside, the scene is dour!
