Calluna, I LOVE that little snippet!  It's perfect!  And the flea circus is very very cool!

Thank you for all the wonderful comments- I really stressed out on this one.

Can I adopt teag?  I love love the little wee circus creatures and their stages!

Please, someone show more closeups of those darlings!

Yes! I'm Adoptable.

Did you mention closeups?

Are those curtains actually corrugated or tone-on-tone stripes or what?  They're grand.

The curtains are crimped red paper I tried cutting them from red paper but realized they needed something more - I picked up a paper crimper from the dollar store and ran a strip through- the outcome was exactly what I wanted to achieve

Here's the awesome tin I received from audio!

The lid; oh how I love the crackle finish!



And the most spooky awesome bearded lady!



Notice that her mirror has scratch marks!! Eep looks like somebody locked her in her stage room a bit too long.

I don't know why the pictures I took flatten the tin so much but the lady is made from paper clay I'm guessing? I love the grunge and texture! And her beard is so full  Cheesy

I love love love it! Now to figure out where to display it! Thank you so much audio!

Your dollar store has a paper crimper?!  Lucky duck!

audio!  Your bearded lady is downright classy even in her wickedness!  I love how the gold shines against the dark, dingy red and other colors.
