We're heading into the last week before Halloween! Are you ready?
To be honest, I have mixed feelings about Halloween-themed jewelry. I'm going to miss the fun cobweb ribbon that I've been using to wrap up Halloween earrings like these Eyeball Earrings. I'm not going to miss jewelry that stares at me while I work!
