Retro Halloween- Wullen Style

There is something so creepy about Halloween before the 1980s'. Considering I was around before the 80s' I remember how spirited it was. If you look at vintage Halloween on Pinterest, you will find some of the most warped imagery and scary decor. Even the pumpkins are scary. The costumes were most frightening when handmade. That's not to say that costumes now are not terrifying. The make-up alone can be pretty incredible.  
​This season, I decided to celebrate Halloween in retro fashion both at my home and in my wool sculpture.   Creepy pumpkins, spooky cats, wincing witches and dangling skeletons will make the way to my display before Halloween. I've already started! If you are a Halloween enthusiast or just like things that go bump in the night, please be sure to follow along.

To Roll or Not To Roll

Last month I visited my twin sister Evi in New York and we attended a street fair in Patchogue, NY.  It was a hot night, the beer was abundant, and the street smelled of vendor food (YUM).  One thing stood out like a sore thumb; a fashion boutique on wheels.  We were so curious so we boarded the vehicle.  Much to our surprise, it was roomy and really charming. Although we didn't buy anything, it did get my wheels turning.  I couldn't stop talking about it.  I wondered if an arts and crafts store on wheels would be of interest to people. 

So...

I am considering purchasing a vintage trailer to cart my artistic wares. A rolling gallery not to replace my beloved display in the beautiful Artisans On The Ave, but instead to highlight certain talents in a way that brings art to the people.  I would like to feature fine arts and crafts, teach crafting classes and sell crafting supplies. I've been doing plenty of research and continue to learn more about the idea, but would welcome some feedback or interest from my supporters.  This idea is evolving daily, mostly because the size and type of trailer changes with each wonderful one I see. 

Oh...I'm not quitting my day job.  I Love my Kravis Center (Check out our new season brochure)! This would be a nights and weekends deal.
