Happy Halloween! & looking toward the holidays…
Happy Halloween! This fetching little black kitty on a stack of books with a vintage Swarovski crystal would also make a great stocking stuffer, just sayin’…

Happy November!
Many thanks to all who have supported artsyletters over the years! Looking forward to another busy holiday season. I’ll be posting new items in these next few weeks; perhaps they’ll be bound for stockings or family gatherings. I’m beyond grateful to be able to create for a living. Wishing you and yours a lovely November!
Happy Spooky!
Here’s to Vowels!
From a 19th-Century copy of CROWN JEWELS (or Gems of Literature, Art, and Music …) compiled by Henry Davenport Northrop and published by Pennsylvania Publishing Company in 1887, I plucked this wee riddle poem by Jonathan Swift (1667-1745), then gave it the artsyletters mini collage treatment.
On the Vowels
by Jonathan Swift
We are little airy creatures,
All of different voice and features:
One of us in glass is set,
One of us you’ll find in jet;
T’other you may see in tin,
And the fourth a box within;
If the fifth you should pursue,
It can never fly from you.
I thought those “little airy creatures” would pair well with some old lace! Though the blocky midcentury brass letters are anything but airy, I suppose – so here’s to a little contrast! You can find this 4X6 mini shadowbox collage here.
