Are you a good witch or a bad witch? That is the question you know!
Well, the big day has finally arrived! I hope everyone has enjoyed this year of Stellaween. We certainly have, but I’m looking forward to getting our house back in order and not covered in costumes.
Our last character is one we all know well. She’s Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. The dress is one of those little princess play dresses we picked up at a consignment shop. I ripped the Sleeping Beauty cameo off and added every gemstone, piece of broken jewelry, and foam star we had. I also added a big Christmas tree ornament. It would have been better to have had the butterfly, but maybe next time. The dollar store carries these little so-called “skirts”, which I decided would be better to add as the giant flutter sleeves. To make the skirt stand out wider, she slipped on the Ghostbusters tutu. The crown was made of sparkly craft foam, glitter glue, Christmas stars, gemstones and a necklace. But the most exciting part of the dress is that it twinkles! I attached some twinkly LED lights. They carry a small battery pack of them at Hobby Lobby. Not that great for pictures, but very fun for Stella to wear.
Here’s a low-light version so you can see the lights.
I decided to add a quick video to view the twinkles in all their glory. I’m clueless as to what I’m doing with video so I had to upload via youtube and I don’t know how to remove the sound so unfortunately you’ll get to hear my voice.

I also want share these two photos that Rob took of Stella while I was setting up one day. I think they are so sweet.
She wanted this little bear to be in the picture too.
And while we’re at it, I’ll go ahead and post a few from our pumpkin lot trip. Stella was sick the day her class went to the real pumpkin patch, so yesterday we made a quick trip to a nearby church to buy one.
She loved the mini pumpkins the most.
You may thinking “That’s so cute, she’s trying to lift that big pumpkin.” But no, I think she was holding on for dear life due to the insane winds that we’re experiencing. Remember this is Hurricane Sandy time.
Alright folks that’s it for this year. We wish you a Happy Halloween from our family to yours![/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
