Bats, Spiders and Pumpkins

I have medium-sized bats to hang in trees or on the end of broomsticks or cauldrons or smaller batty badges to enliven everyday dress.











These little badges may be just the thing to mark the day before the transformation into ghostie, ghoulie, witch or spook in the evening in time for lots of fun with trick or treating. Watch this space for other adornments!




Spiders frighten many at the best of times but I think these little tarantulas would make good house (or garden!) pets and may just be fun to hang around with at the end of the month.
How are your pumpkins growing? If you don't think they will be ready in time for Halloween I have made some slug-resistant ones to decorate whatever and wherever you like!

Halloween



Despite the Indian summer we are experiencing my thoughts are turning to Halloween and all the fun and frightening crafts that may be enjoyed.


This year I am making:

  • Spookily-decorated trick or treat bags just right for carrying all those tooth-rotting goodies - please remember to brush well after eating - decayed teeth look good only on real witches!! Contact me if you would lie to buy any of these bags for your Halloween - only £3.50 each!


  • Halloween lanterns to light your pathway or to take with you when calling to frighten friends in the dark.
  • Designer witches' hats and cloaks.
  • Cute bats.
  • Pumpkins.
