Folk Art for Fall & Halloween

Don't you love to decorate your home in the autumn? And then at the end of September, just add your Halloween decorations to the leaves and gourds and pumpkins. Perhaps you'll find something here that can help you do just that.

Each hand-crafted item is a signed and dated, one-of-a-kind treasure . . . I  will not duplicate it. When you buy one, you've got the first and only one! Be sure to check out my Hand Hooked page for more seasonal goodies there as well!

These are One-of-a-Kinds!!

Jack Gourd in a Rusty Hat

Hooked Jacks on Springs

Krazy Kat Make-Do on a Painted Funnel

I painted this large gourd then added a faux-rusty hat & topped it with a mini pumpkin (putka pod). The brim of his hat is pleated kraft paper with Halloween images stamped in brown ink.  Measures 15 inches tall. Signed & dated.

 

These guys are really fun! Hooked fronts and backs of coordinating wools create these stuffed Jacks on rusty bed springs - so primitive! Each is 14 inches tall.

Jack #1 will be featured in Create and Decorate magazine in the Fall 2008 issue. If you want him, you'll have to wait until her gets back to Ohio from NJ, but you can order and I will send him to you when he's returned.

Price $39.50

This totally primitive cat make-do looks a bit scared, don't you think? He is made completely of wool and appliquéd with wool threads. His whiskers are pieces of old wool fringe. He is sitting atop of a vintage funnel that I painted all around with seasonal pumpkins. Top to bottom, he is 10 inches tall.
