Trick or Treating Alligator


I know you don't tend to run into trick or treating alligators too often, but you might just find one in my etsy shop.

Meet Tyson, the sugar loving alligator who loves Halloween. Not for the scaring people part, (although he's good at that), but the candy lover with lots of cavity prone sharp teeth.

I saw a cute little crocodile in a children's book and decided to do my take on him. Often, I go by the public library and spend a little time in the kids' section. Many books have simplified drawings of cute animals, which make great inspiration for glass beads.

Have you used any children's books recently? Do you have some that are favorites that would be fun to interpret? I'd love to know about it.

See you tomorrow right here, http://www.StudioMarcy.blogspot.com

  3. In Louisiana, he would fit right in! We had German Shepherds and Rottweilers in our kennels that LOVED Halloween and always got (empty) Jack o lantern plastic buckets for toys. They adored them!

    For books, I love The Little Prince and the Good Dog Carl series.

    If you ever get a chance to go to an art show with the art from a childrens' book, DON'T MISS IT! I've been to several and am always dumbstruck at how vivid and beautiful the paintings are in their original form! Very inspirational!
