WIP-it

Here's some thaaangs.    
I didn't do any Halloween related posts, and I love Halloween. Love costumes. Halloween crafts are never overly cheesy to me, I adore them. I'm terrible at doing things related to times.... 
Y'all proly tired of seeing this star guy, but he's turning into something.
Here's some stuff I gots from Spirited Earth. And the ones on the raffia were freebies! Thank you grrl!
I'm trying to show the wonderful texture they have. I often have a bitchy superego saying not to do cute things or trendy things, but fuck it, these owls are awesomesauce.
This one you just wanna rub like a worry stone, it's so nubby. (I think I overly de-saturated it, it's a glorious amber.)
Here are the earrings I'm sporting today. They're from SacredCake and they're wonderful! I never had post earrings, they're so comfortable and don't swing around like danglies. Plus- look at them! They're cut steel antique buttons. Drool....
Today I did a get-out-the vote all around Pilsen, the Latino neighborhood. Cuz even the legal among us 'spics tend not to vote. And the entire time I was putting flyers under windshield wipers and sticking up posters and chatting w/some really cool Mexicans, all I could think was the line from cuteoverload "Vote vote vote like a baby stoat!" 
Plus I realized how crappy the windshield wipers on my (mom's) car are. Even the most modest of neighborhoods' cars had better wnshldwprs. Oh, and I was totally underdressed for the weather and now I'm like compensatorily feverish.

Love that star guy and can't wait to see what he becomes. Drooling over your work in progress, the top piece looks fantastic.
