What props do between Nov. 1 and Oct. 1

When I pulled this flocked cat from the storage bin, he had a blackbird in his claws.  It cracked me up like he was amusing himself while tucked away for 11 months. 

 
On a different note, last year when I was taking down my decorations, I broke one of my favorite lamps.  I blogged about in on Nov. 3, 2014.  I finally, after almost a year of it sitting in the storeroom, got around to painting it. In addition, I glued some plastic skulls on the base and recovered the shade.  Here are my results.
 
You can see that crack through the skinny parts

      I tried to ooze the blood from the cracks as you suggested but alas, my efforts were not effective.

    The lamp shade really makes the look complete.

      That's a Martha Stewart product. I think I will blog about it because I am very pleased.

    Lovely job on the lamp, lady M! Hopefully that gets to stay out all year long now, becoming part of the permanent decor? I LOVE the new shade - beats pantyhose any old day. LOL
