Farewell to fall
It was great while it lasted, though it actually ended here about three weeks ago. It's already the wettest November on record, and it's looking to be the rainiest month EVER....in Seattle...I'll say no more.
This little set was fun to make. The branches of the tree are made with spray painted paper cups. They don't bend gracefully outward as much as I would like, but they take the weight of the fabric just fine. I was concerned that they wouldn't. The kid is another "stick figure" like the shark.
This is also a brief farewell from me. I'm off on my super vacation to New York City and Pennsylvania. I'll check in on folks and check my email, but I won't be doing any posting. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
i love how the kid is jumping into the pile of leaves :)...safe travels and Happy Thanksgiving to you too.

I love the diorama! Fall is my favorite time of year. I hope you have a great visit to the East Coast. I'll wave as you fly overhead. :)
You know, if you look at the picture fast ... it almost looks like he's running from a fire and about to jump into a fire pit. :) All you need is to stick a devil in there and it can do double duty as a Halloween diarama.
