			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead" target="_blank">Day of the Dead!</a> Now&#8217;s the time for you to go visit any family members buried in cemeteries. <a href="http://www.gravesitevalet.com/" target="_blank">Clean up their gravesite</a> and leave some pretty flowers or a little pumpkin.</p>
<p>Check out these lovely Day of the Dead skulls and skeletons. You can&#8217;t deny they are perfect Halloween decorations. Or in my case, year round decorations (in my world, everyday is Halloween) &#8211; here&#8217;s one I picked up one summer at the beach with friends.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.loona.net/pics/dotd_skeleton.jpg" alt="skeleton" /></p>
<p>Some fun skulls I found on the web:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/day-of-the-dead-skull" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.loona.net/pics/dotd_skull1.jpg" alt="Day of the Dead Skull" /></a></p>

<p>And of course there are the sugar skulls:</p>

<p>Some <a href="http://www.melsbrushes.co.uk/?tag=day" target="_blank">Day of the Dead Photoshop brushes</a> and pngs you can download for free:</p>

<p>You can purchase a <a href="http://www.redstonepress.co.uk/calaveras.htm" target="_blank">lovely book of antique prints</a>:</p>
