Let Me Tell Your Fortune


I remember as a young girl playing around with a Ouija board with my sisters. I was always fascinated by "how" it moved...never quite believing that one of my sisters wasn't steering the darn thing to the answer they wanted me to have!

I did a little research on the origin of the Ouija board or talking board as it's known. The first resemblance to a Ouija board was first documented in China in 1100 BC. Our modern day Ouija board was created in the late 1890's and today is made by Parker Brothers.




Getting ready for fall, I did a few new Halloween signs this week. I love how this trick or treat sign turned out.





Of course what witch services would be complete without the ability to turn prince charming into a toad. I know it's usually the other way around but sometimes you know you want to just zap the prince into a toad!
