Welcome to another week of Fairly Frightening Friday blog hop (meme)!  I’m so happy to have you here!  Please  add your post to the linky below!  Whether it’s cutesy or really scary, all is good, as long as it’s rated PG.  :-)

Today, I’d like to share a show I discovered recently.  It’s called Dexter, and can be found on Showtime, and past episodes can be viewed on Netflix.  It’s about a guy who does forensics with the police, but also kills people.  Yes, he’s a serial killer, but he does have ethics.  He only kills people who kill other people.  Neat twist huh?  Now, I do have to warn you, there is nudity, sex, and language, so the show is NOT for the under 18 crowd.  At least, not in my house.  I usually don’t watch things that have such things, but I really like the show otherwise.

Have you seen the show?  What is YOUR Fairly Frightening Friday post about?  Don’t forget to leave a link to your FFF, and leave a comment, too!

Today is the second installment of my new meme, Fairly Frightening Friday!  As you may have noticed, it doesn’t REALLY have to be frightening, just something that is sort of Halloween themed!

This cutie cat is by David Everett at Chickenlips.biz.  I love his creations, and I bet you will, too!

I’ve always thought memes and blog carnivals were fun, but I don’t always run across a lot that I want to participate in.  So, while looking over a list of some memes, I came up with an idea for a new one!  But, sticking with my Halloween theme, this one is going to be a little different.

This meme is for anyone who enjoys Halloween all year round!  Anyone who adores the creepy, ghoulish, and macabre!  And, luckily, the rules will be fairly simple!

So, here we go!  The very first post of FAIRLY FRIGHTENING FRIDAY!!!!  *insert spooking music here*

Here is my first Fairly Frightening Friday photo!

This is a photo of a little Halloween figure by holiday artist, Laurie Hardin!  Laurie makes the most amazing figures!  They are silly and fun, and have wonderful personality!

Augustus Lumina is available for sale.  Please go check out Laurie’s blog at http://lauriehardinsaccents.blogspot.com/!!!

The rules:

1. Post a photo of something you find frightening, spooky, creepy, or anything related to Halloween on your own site or blog!
2. Keep it Family Friendly please!!
3. Then post your link to our Mcklinky of the week!

This will be a year round meme, so be sure to come back every week!  And, don’t forget to visit other visitor’s sites!

If you’re like me, you love Halloween!  Hey now, don’t get your panties in a bunch… if you don’t love Halloween, we can still be friends!  LOL  Anyhoo, I love just about anything to do with Halloween, and some things that don’t.    I love the costumes, I love the decorations, I love scoring candy from my kids!

But one of my absolute favorite things about Halloween is the music related to it.  I listen to it all through the year!  It’s ok to listen to it online, but a lot of the time, they don’t play the kind of stuff I like.  I have rather eclectic tastes, you see.  LOL  So, I really like having my own collection of Halloween music at home.  The ones listed below are some of my favorites, and I thought you might like them, too!

I have been working all day on some Halloween items, and have had to stop several times to condition clay. I don’t know if it’s the white Premo, or if this block is old, but it is sooo hard. Even after I’ve worked it for quite a long time, it still seems to be somewhat brittle. So, I’m trying adding some Sculpey to it, because it’s much softer. It does seem to be helping. I don’t usually use Sculpey, because it’s too soft to hold the detail that I usually work in. A touch, though, in this really stiff clay, makes it just soft enough that it’s not cracking easily.

I’ve been getting in the “holiday spirit”, so to speak, by listening to Halloween radio (http://www.neverendingwonder.com/halloween.htm), while I work on some ghoulish ornaments for Halloween Trees, or just hanging around anywhere! I plan on painting them, so I’m just working with white clay. I’ll try to get some pictures of them posted soon! And when they’re done, I’ll post them on my Artfire shop! The link is to the right, but I’ll include it in the post when they’re ready.
