Haunted Design House Challenge

While all the creatures in this house are busy sleeping,

I'd thought I'd join in on the

Haunted Design House 

Macabre Monday Challenge.

The challenge is to create something dark and macabre... nothing cute.

September's theme is

The nights are drawing in.

This particular piece was created with 

a paperclay face

tissue paper

a cardboard coffin lid

mini skeleton arms

dried rose petals

small glitter star. 

I think the sharpest, most bittersweet relationships

are the ones that are brief.

It might feel like it ended almost before it started,

but the emptiness inside is so very tangible. 

This is called

 'Regret'

knowing that

 the long nights of the cold season are drawing in

almost seem to make the pain worse.
