Shshshshhs!!!! It's just past midnight October 17th. Everybody has gone to sleep. Today is Miss Vanessa's hauntingly magical celebration of Halloween. And guess what? I haven't got a clue of what I am going to show on my blog...better hurry, but shshshshshhshs...be quiet....who is that knocking? Stop that!!! Ooooh it's a package....someone delivered a package after midnight, now how spooky is that? .......
Now let's see what's inside:
Een tijdschrift, wat spinnen...
A magazine...? Some spiders...mmm wait there is more:
Een prachtig foto album!
A photo album, now isn't that nice?
Oooh kijk eens, da's leuk: mijn oudtante Magda!
Look inside: There is my aunt Marge, when she was young;
En hieronder mijn oudoom Henri:
and this is uncle Henri, he must have been a huge Abraham Lincoln fan in his days...
En dit is mijn oma, met haar grootmoeder!
And here is my grandmother, she is the young girl of course....
I loved the album! Then I discovered a pair of glasses on the bottom of the box:
Ik ontdekte ook nog een bril op de bodem van de doos, wat moet ik daar nu mee? Ik mag dan net 48 zijn geworden, een leesbril heb ik nog niet nodig, maar voor de grap zette ik hem op:
Now I'm 48 but I still don't need reading glasses, but for fun I put them on:
Hahaha grappig!
Hahaha, great!
Let's see if I can read that magazine any better:
Eens zien of ik dat tijdschrift beter kan lezen....pfffoe ik word er duizeling van...
These glasses make me feel dizzy...what do I see?
Het ene moment zie ik deze^ vaas,
One moment I see this vase, the other moment:
Het volgende moment zie ik deze^ vaas. Wat gebeurt er toch?
Oooh what is happening...???
Terwijl ik in de spiegel kijk schrik ik me een hoedje!
Looking in the mirror I got scared to death!!!
Mijn handen..., mijn ring...en het foto album...aaaahhhhhhh!
Look at my hands...my nails...my ring...(just click on the photo to see the details)
and look at the album...:
Kijk wat er met tante Magda gebeurd is...
Now look at auntie Margie...I just knew it...
En oom Henri.....dus dat was er met je aan de hand...
Uncle Henri....so that is what you really are!
Ach, dit is eigenlijk helemaal geen verrassing, tuurlijk is mijn oma een heks...Vorig jaar ontdekten we toch al dat ik ook een heks ben, weet je nog? Ik hoop dat ik niemand heb laten schrikken. Het enge gaat NU komen, nou zo'n gedroogd bloemending, da's pas eng!! Voor 25 cent gescoord bij de kringloop!
And of course my grandmother and my great great grandmother...But this is no surprise... after all we found out that I am a witch last year...remember....?
Did I scare you? Now wait here is the grand finale; this is what I call scary:
Oh isn't this totally ugly??? Really disgusting!!!
You can buy these dried flower things in every thrift store for nothing.
Een paar weken geleden won ik een kadobon van 25 dollar bij de Speckled Egg en ik 'kocht' er onder andere allerlei zogenoemde dresden bandjes van, eindelijk had ik ze! Ze zijn trouwens nu in de aanbieding hier.
A few weeks ago I won a gift certificate of 25 USD, at the Speckled Egg to spend at the Speckled Egg webstore. Now I didn't have any trouble to do that. Look what I choose. I decided to choose a lot of dresdens... to do this:
En dit kan je dus onder andere doen met die dresdens! Ding openmaken, droogbloemen eruit, Halloween dingen erin, ding dicht..mmm nou past die ring niet meer zo goed en dus gebruik je de dresden. Ik heb nog een grappig idee hiermee, binnenkort op deze blog...
So you throw the dried flowers out, put some fun Halloween stuff in put the ring back. Mmm doesn't fit that tight anymore huh? Now the dresden comes in! Heather is having a sale on dresden trims right now, grab your chance here! I have another fun idea with the dresdens, so stay tuned!
Thanks for visiting me at this early hour of the day, sorry I didn't have any daylight to take the photos. Hope you have a wonderful time partying at all bloggers that celebrate Miss Vanessa's hauntingly magical Halloween Party, just check the list over there on her left side bar and be sure to visit every one!
Bedankt voor je nachtelijk bezoek hier...tsja daarom zijn alle foto's bij kunstlicht gemaakt, niets aan te doen. Vandaag is het de hele dag Halloween bij alle bloggers die meedoen met de hauntingly magical celebration of Halloween bij Miss Vanessa. Check de lijst aan de linkerkant op haar blog, wie er allemaal meedoen. Ik wens je heel veel Halloween plezier, hahahahaha!

What a great concept! I knew you would have something special going on with that photo album and those freaky glasses! Fun! Fun!
Yay, I get the first comment! Your nails are perfectly frightening, but I guess that makes sense, since you come from a long line of witches. I am reading this rather late and completely expect to have nightmares.
hello LiLi!
what a playful post! you look like you are having quite the fun time. how cool to have old family photos!
i love what you made with your goodies from heather's shop. awesome!
happy weekend!
xo
Dear Lili Witch you have scared me so that my hair all turned white as snow.
Those nails that you show and family book of ancestors are simple magical….
What was that I saw but Poe’s very own raven bird, could it be????
It is near midnight here and I must hurry to bed before the clock strikes that ghostly hour…
A very happy Halloween party to you…
Louise
Fabulous hauntingly post LiLi!!!
I love your story and what you did with the old scrapbook and photos and you look so scary with that head lol and your finger nails EEK!! But you saved the best for last! I absolutely love what you did with the round glass. I never saw such glasses with dried flowers behind over here, but now I'll have to find them!!!
I wish you a Happy Halloween count down!!!
xoxo Carola
Wat een geweldig leuke post, alhoewel een beetje eng was ie ook wel! Nog veel griezel plezier Lili!
p.s. Erg leuke vondst dat Halloween stolpje!
Heerlijk om te lezen, prima wakker worden zo op de zaterdagochtend!
Fijn weekend!
Lili dearest! That was so entertaining and wonderful! I LOVED IT! And you are so beautiful! Long black nails and all! What a great house you have; I remember seeing it for the crown fest, way back when. Everything looks great. I will hop on over to Vanessa's place right now! Bisous, Anita
LiLi,
What a fun and magical post. I must say I love your glasses and your manicure too! What a beautiful home and photo albums you have shown. Happy Halloween.Karen
LiLi, what a super fun post...i love what you did with the photo album...and your glasses were a scream...LOL...SOOOOOOOOO adorable how you re~made the paperweight {or whatever that thing was in it's former life}...very clever indeed!!!
Wie wil er eigenlijk nou niet af en toe een heks zijn ???? En misschien zijn we dat ook allemaal, lees wij vrouwen, wel een beetje. Als ik de "meeste" mannen moet geloven tenminste. Ik heb af en toe best wel eens zin om een beetje bitchy te doen, of heeft dat meer met de maandelijkse ongemakken te maken? In ieder geval is je post weer geweldig.
groetjes en nog een heel fijn weekend verder hier in L. schijnt in ieder geval het zonnetje en geeft prachtige herfstkleuren buiten.
ps. met zulke nagels kun je natuurlijk niet beren !!!!!
Such spooky fun!! Blessings and light
Ohhh, love your party! The photos are wonderful. Im having so much fun "visiting" with everyone and enjoying all the parties this morning.

hello, i'm still enjoy my swaps from last year' Halloween very much! lovely album and must be tricky holding a glue stick with those nails! ha! have a year..whats left of it.. gotta fly,more parties to visit!
Spookachtig leuk, je ziet er heel hekserig uit! :-) Bedankt voor de uitnodiging om mee te feesten!
I like your magical spooky glasses - maybe that's what's happening to my glasses, things are starting to get blurry through them. Maybe they're transforming - mwahahahaha!
What a fun post...love the nails and the ring ~ just wonderful!
hellllooooow... hahaha... (spooky bedoelt)
Ik ben jaloers op je prachtige lange zwarte nagels die van mij willen nl niet zo hard groeien (alleen tijdens de vakantie)
Ik moet bekennen dat ik altijd zwarte teen nagels heb(ook al ga ik dagelijks in bad)...hihi... GELAKT ZWART)
Elk jaar neem ik me voor: ik doe ook aan halloween, gisteren nog bij Xenos geweest maar weet niet waar te beginnen.
Ik brouw al jaren pompoensoep, plaats lichtjes in de uitgeholde pompoenen en heb natuurlijk mijn zwarte teennagels dus ik ben aardig op weg toch??
Ik ga maar eenss kijken bij de Amerikaanse lady's misschien ga ik nog meer ideeën op doen.
Happy halloween groetjes van een Witte heks
ohhh wat ik nog vergeet te zeggen:
Mijn bezem staat altijd bij de voordeur, en de spinnenwebben heb ik ook het hele jaar door in mij huis.
Hahahaha..groetjes
Good morning dearest Lili! Thank you for coming to sit a while in my dream kitchens! How nice that you vacationed in France on a regular basis; I love each region of France. I have spent more time in the south which has its own wonderful charm. Please come back again for a bowl of stew!!! Have a wonderful week, Lili. Fondly, Anita
What a fun post and what a great make-over on the "ugly dried flower" thingy!- So much prettier now!
Happy hauntings!

hoi hoi, ben er ook weer eens, weer wat internetproblemen gehad, dus meteen weer een hoop achter. Heb je posten maar wat sneller gelezen dan ik normaal doe, maar die laatste slaat weer alles, hahaha. Geweldig wat een werk jij er weer van gemaakt hebt. Ik heb niet zoveel met Halloween, maar dit vind ik dan weer heel erg leuk. tot de volgende keer maar weer.
I just flew in to say Happy Halloween!!! What a wonderful party you are having.
Stop by mine if you have time
Hugs

What a lovely little entry- I wasn't nearly as creative. I had all these ideas in mind and then time just slipped away from me. But love the old photos- That's so nice that you have images of your family. We don't have any of my family photographs - Only of my grandparents... So cherish those pictures!
