excitedHere we go! Halloween season has officially begun! Not only am I already deep in my own party planning, but Eerie Elegance book sales have gone from selling less than 10 books each month through June, to about 40 sold in July, and 85 in August...definitely ramping up!
I did not allow myself any concrete Halloween planning until my kitchen remodel was absolutely finished, otherwise I was afraid I might get distracted & never finish the kitchen! Wheels are always turning in my head, however, and in the past couple weeks I've written up my Halloween party prep wishlist for this year, including the 2009 series of Eerie Elegance podcasts...with the first episode released on schedule TODAY! :)
I didn't expect to have so much information about royal icing & the spiders I make with it, but it ended up 15 minutes, so had to be split for YouTube into part 1 & part 2. You can watch the entire episode from EerieElegance.com and iTunes by searching for "Eerie Elegance" or by subscribing to the series. Scroll down to see my glowing iTunes review! Thanks amberdawn91! :)
Halloween, here we come! :D
Eerie Elegance - Awful Arachnids - Royal Icing Spiders
nice episode
Since you asked ;) I'll give you a little tip you could use to dramatically improve the audio quality in your videos... an external mic is cheap and makes a big difference. If you're interested, check out this demo an internet friend of mine made:

It does a wonderful job cutting out the noise floor.
Anyway, thanks and keep the Halloween projects coming!!

Re: nice episode
In 15 years of cake decorating, I've never come across a metal coupler or coupler ring. That's too cool! Part of that vintage Ateco set you mentioned?

love, mom
yay for halloween!
I always look forward to your halloween to do lists, they make mine seem normal. lol . My special project this year, in addition to all my regular stuff is a glowing black light chamber with assorted skeletons{bats,rams, snakes, anything sinister} color reverse printed and mounted all around. Also many scary glowing eyes painted all around in detergent so they'll floresce. Also I am doing my own version of "ghostly greenery" ....Florida style
Keep up all the hard work!
