Ok it's not a great pic but I had to show you the rather lovely skull my sister kindly left on my doorstep today. It will have to live outside to keep the moss nice and fresh - I'm just not quite sure where to put it - I'd hate to find someone or something had taken it away. I'll figure something out.

I'm hoping for some decent light this weekend so I can do a better pic!

A present of the past and right up your street.
Works well with the old books.

Thanks folks Smile I know as far as pics go this leaves a lot to be desired but I just had to show it off Smile I'll put more thought and effort into my next photo!

I could do with more old books - I'd rather they were rather tattier but they'll do for now.

A for the rest of the skeleton - well who knows where that went - I know for sure had it been there then she'd have left it on my doorstep too!

As long as they don't look at the bottom of my garden - there's a human skull down under the shrubs gathering muck and grime - a fake one of course Smile

I saw a real one on ebay once - it was an 18 year old female - I really couldn't have a real one knowing that much information - that's a tad too 'real'.

I certainly think they're lovely though the folks at work think I'm a bit odd (though they know by now that I like strange stuff). One of the guys the other day commented that I wasn't very girly Smile

mmmm - not sure I'd want to risk spoiling it with a candle - the moss is covering most of the openings. I do have some diddy led lights though that might work.....
