Homemade Halloween cards, a dream catcher inspired by Doctor Who and Greek superstitions, and some squeemail from snowie44! Quite a haul :D

Remember, next week will be my 60th TTMT, which means another SSFD question! Stay tuned if you're interested in entering the drawing!

Love the bumblebee :D That's adorable. Well, so are they all, but the bee is my favourite.

That's a really neat idea for the dream catcher/eye combination, and I think it looks pretty great. I like the teardrop shape, even if it wasn't what you were aiming for :D

I kind of wanted to do the book exchange, but I couldn't think of any scary/creepy books! I don't really read anything in that genre (haven't done since I was in high school and way overloaded on Stephen King), but then I borrowed a young adult book from the library called Rotters, which is about a kid who discovers that his dad robs graves for a living, and yeah... that would have worked.

(By the by, you didn't happen to get a box of yarn in the mail from me, did you? I remember when I sent it, but I feel like it should have arrived by now. Maybe I should go look at my bank statement to see when I had a CanadaPost charge, hmm. I guess I wouldn't know what to do if my mail disappeared into the ether anyway!)

Oh, my gosh! Did I not write to you to tell you it came? Eeek!! I am so sorry - it arrived a week or two ago, and the yarn is beautiful! I've already started on a baby cap with the pretty, white sparkly yarn that's so very soft. Thank you so much for sending it along! I promise to make very good use of it, and I will definitely keep you updated as to the products that come of it. I'm so sorry that I didn't thank you right away! I must be losing my mind O_O!!

Not to worry, it's a busy time of year (and I'm very guilty, always, of telling myself I'll send a note later and then remembering I've forgotten once it's completely inconvenient and then forgetting all about it again once I'm home :D). Great to hear you've started to use it, anyway :D

The dream catcher s are very cool, and I like the Who spin you put on them. I have one of those eyes that a co-worker brought me from a trip to Greece a few years ago, they are really cool.

I wanted to do the book swap, but I haven't really read any spooky stuff or ages, though I went on a Koontz/King binge during college. I really couldn't think of anything other than that to send. And I've been so horrible about mailing things lately that I decide I'd better not, lol.

Really loving your Melisandre necklace!

Awww, I wish you had done the book swap! But I totally understand being behind on packages and having, in general, far too many other things to worry about. I'd love to do a book swap again sometime, whether Halloween themed or not!

I enjoyed incorporating the mati into my dreamcatcher, although I think that it rather insulted my father. My family is descended from the Mohawk Nation, and while my dad teaches at a Greek immersion school (how I first learned about the mati), he was dismayed to see that I combined the two. Oh well! Not for him, is it? ;)

The Halloween cards rock! What a fantastic idea!

Dream catchers are a great idea in defense of Weeping Angels!

Woo for wardrobe changes, I feel spoiled!

I was semi-obsessed with John Saul when I was younger. I'll be curious to hear if you enjoy the book!
