By default, I'm assigned Halloween to decorate the front window at the Wind & Tide Bookstore. Last year's window was very complicated (spell potion with lots of bottles, bubbling cauldron, etc), so this year I wanted a simpler window. Hubby spent Tuesday shopping with me, then helped me set up before the store opened on Thursday. Its a bit hard to see all the GellyGem bats and moons stuck to the windows. *WEG*

Everyone was so thrilled, I've been asked to decorate the other window, too! The boss told me they haven't had this many comments on the front window ever, so she's delighted at the attention the store is getting. Hopefully this will translate to more business!

What fun! I really like the Share the Road sign, and I can see the gummy bats.

Someday . . . we'll decorate. Not this year, though.

The signs were hysterical, as you know our downtown street is often under construction! They come three to a pack, with so six different sides in all. There's also a grouping of life-sized gravestones inside.

The boss keeps being asked if the store carries those signs.

Lemme know when you do, I'll send you that one for your collection. *WEG*

Correction, there's four signs so eight sides in all. Mea culpa, I forgot the one out of frame.

I *must* have one of those Share The Road signs! Where did you get it?

Local party shop in a pack of four. I can go down tomorrow and buy the rest of the sets (they were really cheap) or scan it into a gif for anyone who would like a copy.

That looks like the bestest store in the world. :)
