Just Batty

An amazing vintage postcard with a bat and candle magic.

A spooky front porch from Martha Stewart.





Another wonderful Halloween postcard.
A very cool Dennison die-cut 1920's.
Gone Batty Folklore

~ Sacred to Goddess Freya

I have always had an adoration for bats. Such wonderful little creatures. My DIL is giving a workshop on bats next weekend (she works for the state dept. of wildlife) - alas , I am doing a show and am going to miss it. :0(
