First of all, here is a swap I was involved in through my Miniatures group, All Things Mini. The theme was Addams Family Halloween!! haha - how perfect for me right?!? So I got to work thinking about what I would make (you had to make one for each person in the swap). So my thoughts landed on the last scene of the first Addams Family movie. Its halloween night and the family wants to play a game! Of course!! Wake the Dead! So here I have created a tomb stone, rule book and dirty shovel so every one can join in.
Here is what was created by the fabulous Cate. Look at all the Things!! I think I will have him coming out of Gomez's closet (as if he's been playing dress up!!)
And lastly a man-eating plant created by Christina Pardy. It will go strait into the Addamses kitchen. There is funny story about customs you can read on Cate's blog.... but we're pretty sure this is the little guy that threw the customs guys for a loop!
-Awards (several)
-A dressed and wigged Morticia
-Update on status of the Mini-Mansion
-Newly aquired Addams decor
-Grandmama's BED (made for me and its absolutly stunning!)
-A bed I made for Cate (once she gets it in the mail)
-Update on Murph and Esmey's humble abode
Phew... I better get cracking... good thing I have a bit of a long weekend coming up!
Hugs, Ara and the Addamses
