The Mad Hatter Is On His Way!


See the October 17th post if you are looking for the Fanciful Twist Party here at EyeCandy. (pssst! I am still flying around to visit... And boy, are my arms tired!)



Hello Everybody!

It's true. I’ve only gotten around to maybe – key word here, maybe -- a quarter to half of the folks on the Fanciful Twist Halloween Celebration plus My Own Peeps. Fun? Yes! Exhausting? A bigger yes goes here. But it has been and is fun.

A tempest in a teapot kept me from getting out a lot of what I originally planned. As Rab the Rhymer said, “The best laid plans of mice and men…”


Still, despite everything -- including myself -- I covered a lot of air. Or was it ground? Oh dear, my poor little broom has gone on strike!


To top it all, The Second Annual Mad Hatter Tea Party is This Saturday on this here blog. Thank goodness I don’t have to rely on that broom for transportation since the Party is being held right here in my Spooky Old House.

No, I am NOT wearing this, I assure you. My Mad Hatters would never let me live it down.
Oh. You’re New Here?! Well, jump right in and check out this post! And get ready to pop up a hat of some kind, any kind, in any medium you choose on your own blog this Saturday.

Let Me know you are in for the count by Friday Midnight EST (if you haven't already) and I will blog-roll you that very day.





Speaking of tea parties, check out this fabu silver service I picked up at a yard sale. For an obscenely low price, to boot. I could not believe my good fortune! It will look really lovely once the Faeries (read: T and I) shine it up!

Get More of What You Love.

Hi, Candace! Enjoy your Mad Hatter's Tea Party! :-)

Charlie said...

Love that tea pot. I'm sure you will put it to good use at your mad hatters tea party.
Don't be late!

Alright, I will try to make a hat and try to leave a comment. I am on the couch by the fire and I'm too lazy to get up. J.

LOL, okay, Jeanne, thanks for going the distance, Pal!
Hello everybody! And thanks for all the comments and visits.

Jayne's blog is as fun as everyone else's and her artwork is really eyepopping as are her philosophical wanderings.

Anne and Charlie, you are invited to just drop in and check us out also. You're both busy as well this time of year. No need for the hat...
Now, about that fireside chat...
Take care, everyone!
Candace

Hi Candace-lovely tea set-bargains, you can't beat them!
I will be at your tea party but a little early! I am off to Scotland in the morning so will put up my party post later this evening. See you there!

Oh I forgot to tell you ...I did a madder hatter digital art. I'm posting it to my blog for your tea party. It's kinda of a combo of halloween and the hat.
Have fun,
C.
