Happy Thanksgiving, Meet Toliver and Lilly!

Hope everyone has a wonderful, healthy and exciting Thanksgiving filled with all the scrumptious treats and magical giving that families can create on this special day. My favorite part are the baked sweet potatoes with marshmallows and pecans, the butternut squash and Sandra's Cherry Almond Cake, which I wait for every year. We will be traveling again to PA for another exciting Thanksgiving filled with tons of laughter, love and wonderful food. I know my Grandfather will be with my Grandmother watching from above and joining us in Holiday Spirit.

May you all ring in this holiday season with all the magic it can provide. Before I leave today I wanted to leave you with a story, the story of Toliver and Lilly!

Toliver who full name is Toliver Twizzles is a wizard from Pemberton who is on his way to the annual Trippy Wizard Invitational, held inside Trippy Woods at Hollow Bach Arena.

Toliver's cousin Oliver plays for The Tripping Woods Perchables, the opposing 3 teams are: Battingsbees, Woodchips and Grove Falcons.

Toliver is pictured here in his gaming cape, wizard hat and wand, after the event Toliver and friends will attend the Starland Soiree to celebrate the team who wins.

Conservatoire Du Cirque d'Alice!"Conservatoire Du Cirque d'Alice" translate from French to English: "Alice's Circus Conservatory" This is a new piece I created which is part of the Storybook Friends Collection and is inspired by vintage storybooks, their whimsical and enchanting characters. For this piece I choose to work with my favorite storybook: Alice in Wonderland and my signature Carnival/Circus theme. The main character of this storybook piece is a yellow chix named Alice, who comes back to Wonderland to visit the Circus, and gets transformed into costume as a chix for the day, while enjoying the many treats that this circus has to offer.
Alice is scene here through the looking glass entering Berrie Diddle Dee's Fun House of Sugary Sweets, notice the edible sugar bulbs hanging over head and the lollipop columns and gumball lanterns surrounding her. Everything about Berrie Diddle Dee's Fun House is sugary sweet, a candyland utopia filled with everything edible, there is even a gondola boat made from hardened marzipan which floats you out of the fun house on the cherry cocktail water stream, all who leave the fun house receive a sour cherry heart candy wand, curteousy of The Queen of Hearts Confectionaires.

Stay tuned for Alice's adventure at the Circus! For Project directions on how to make your own glass jar vignettes/glass assemblages/glass jar fairies/jar cozies visit or pick up a copy of my book: "Altered Art Circus", Quarry Books!
