The 13 Days of Creepmas: Day 1

So here we are at the beginning of The 13 Days of Creepmas, a delightfully gothy way of getting back at the stores for insisting on stocking Christmas stuff as early as August and elbowing out the Halloween stuff before October 31st.

"On the First Day of Creepmas, my true love gave to me
Some eyeballs on a fir tree!"

(Don't you just LOVE the Jack-O-Lantern base and the Jack Skellington Claus topper????)


And so that I'm not a Grinch and borrowing something without telling where I found it, and where YOU can find it, too, here is the info for this wonderful image:

    1. Heheheh, I agree!! Only I'd use fake eyeballs, the real ones get mushy and stinky if left in the air, then they get all shrunken. Hmmm, shrunken eyeballs... maybe a little TOO gross?? ;-)

  3. You know, I bet you could make a tree out of black feathers that would come pretty close to that wonderful illustration. Hmmmmm.....

    1. Ooooh, I like where your mind is going! Black feathers, plastic eyeballs, maybe a few black bats, some lights, Jack Skellington tree topper, and a ceramic pumpkin base to hold it all together! :-)

      My only problem would be storage for the rest of the year. Gotta think about that one...
