Christmas Time is Here Again






I've been dying to post Christmas decor pics but things are just getting back to normal here at Unicorn Villa after a whirlwind experience of three movies in a row! Now that everything is wrapped I am looking forward to some time off which will of course mean more stuff for the blog! Here are some previews of the Christmas decorations here- more to come!

Through the Looking Glass: Halloween 2008

This year's Spooktacular Halloween Party was the Fourth Annual- I can't believe it. While I was finishing up the movie elsewhere in Georgia, Shauna was good enough to create a wonderful Alice costume for me to complement her as the Queen of Hearts. Before our annual trip to Disneyworld for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, we threw our own bash.


The old toilet paper mummy contest- Christine took home first prize.





My brother Kee was visiting and made a great White Rabbit. I'm drinking wine, but from a teacup!



The Williams family- thanks to Patrick for having an awesome costume and taking all these great pictures!




MariClaire tries a poisonous caramel apple. She survived that, just like she does everything!


These vases are simply dollar store finds with black spray paint.


The glitter graveyard- plastic bones coated with Martha Stewart glass glitter from Michael's. Everything looks better with glitter!


The dollar store comes through again- black pillar candles are made special with Halloween ribbon tied around them.




I made a skin for my beautiful (but bright blue!) Swedish clock to fit it into the decor. Poster board and a white out pen were all I needed!




Pyrex beakers make excellent dip containers! This is pumpkin butter and ginger snaps, very tasty.

The puking pumpkin is always a hit. Salsa never looked so good!






Of course we had Eat Me cookies for Alice in Wonderland!
