Happy Halloween ~



~ Happy Halloween ~
 
In years past, I've probably shown most of my Halloween collection.  I really haven't added to it, but thought I would share once again.
 
The following ceramic pieces were all painted by my mom.  They hold a special place in my heart.


Atop the jelly cupboard.  (Reproduction samplers hooked by moi.)


Dining room cupboard ~


Vintage paper mache ~


 
Though it's my least favorite and probably the newest, I got the mache Jack on the left for only $4 at a garage sale many years ago.


Vintage tin noisemakers ~


A fun hooked rug purchased on eBay years ago.  I have no idea of the pattern designer . . .


. . . the tag on the back.  I wonder if she's still hooking.


Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)

    You have a great vintage collection of Halloween decorations and those Ceramics from your mom to enjoy. I used to have some of those ceramics moldsat one time when I was in business.

    I haven't taken the time to decorate for Halloween this October. It seems to not be important this year . It came too fast. At least, I won't have to put all that stuff away either.

    Happy Halloween.
    Hugs,
    JB

    So many things I want to comment but will forget some I'm sure. Hopefully the gal who hooked the skeleton will see the post or maybe a friend will contact her.

    The newest mache jack you could take paper and paint the eyes and tongue and tape/glue to the inside. Just paint it as the other antiques ones are you'll be happy.

    Who hooked those beautiful cats behind your moms art work? I like it. Happy Halloween gal.

    Love your collection! So cool! I admire those like you who decorate for the various holidays. I never seem to manage to do so, so I guess it's good I don't have collections for the seasons. lol!

    I always enjoy your collections! They are so happy and nice. That is a cute rug and your samplers are lovely. I learn something every time you share. I didn't know you did samplers.
    Everything is just lovely.
