I am not usually inspired by the Day of the Dead theme but I had JUST SEEN these skeletons minutes before! I was possesed and returned today to purchase the 3 skeleton garland. However, when I entered the dollar store, I was struck by a display of 'velvet' bowlers. Instantly, an entire skeleton, hat, day of the dead, steampunky kinda thing came together in my head. I shall report anon with photos. Way to inspire me like anything! Thank you! I had just returned from the dollar store when I read about these yesterday.

Halloween is at its best when the beautiful, like these dolls, are made to be grotesque. Such a jarring visual! How would I display them for the best affect? These dolls are so eerie.
