This is a delightful scene! Your Halloween tree is just perfect, and the little ghosts are a great touch.

That little acorn elf gets cuter every time I see him.

Bet you had fun putting this together.

Karen...how cute those hats are and different too!
I really like how they look on your tree, and
I like how you set the tree up in the pumpkin.
Clever idea w/the ghosts..hehehe DH won't know..and we won't tell!!
You set up everything so nice.
I see you've got some cute witches.
My favorite there, is the silloutte on the 'moon'.
I like the old fashioned look to it.

How nice of Luvs to send you the Acorn Elf..
You've got to show us when it's in the Cloche, with its 'New Friends'!!

Karen, your little tree looks really cute, and those little hats are great on it. How funny about DH's handkerchief--hope he doesn't ask where the ghosts came from. LOL Love all your witch things, especially the one with the kitty riding on her back. ;o) Luvs

Karen,

Your little witches hats are cute on the tree. You have alot of neat decorations here. You are going to be in so much trouble for cutting up DH hankie. Girlfriend, why didn't you use something of yours? Funny how we do what we do at the moment and wouldn't think of cutting up something of ours. It's only his hankie right? Maybe you can buy him some new ones for his stocking this year.LOL

I'm so happy that your elf has someone to care for. Nice looking turkeys you found for him. Are they salt and pepper shakers?

Punk

Yes, Punk, the little turkeys are S&P shakers. I bought two vintage pair on eBay. But my orange kitty, Jazz (aka Trouble) broke one turkey. (I was surprised how many S&P shakers there were when I looked. I sure liked my two sets and so mad Jazz did that. Tho this was my favorite set so at least he left it alone.

Luvs, isn't that Witch a hoot. I had her hanging on front porch last year. She has the cutest, happy face. And of course the "Witch & Famous" witch hat is something I cherish.
(Luvs made that for me by the way) I wish I'd taken more time setting up this display, it literally just came to me when I finished my little tree and I threw it together for a photo. VERY haphazard. Next time I'll do better with it.
Slinkey, that moon tealight holder with the witch painted on it was found at sales last season.

I'm thinking the pumpkin needs something painted on it in black. Any suggestions? Words, picture?

hugs, Karen

I LOVE IT!! Especially the tree!

I'm trying hard to get a collection going. I've only been here a couple of years!

Luvs, I bought some feather boas and DS made the purple/black grapevine wreath with them yesterday while I was getting ready for church. I will post pics when I finish tweeking everything else! Still trying to find the black trash bags to make the other wreath you posted. (DH and DS helped put the groceries away and did a GREAT job of hiding those!)

Punk, Of course she would use her DH's hankie!

Gotta run. Gkids just arrived. YEA!
Love,
Betty

Betty, so glad you liked those wreath projects--I love it when I can share fun ideas like those. I like fun, easy, and cheap ideas! LOL

When my little GD saw my wreath with all the eyes on it, she said "Gramma, that's silly." I said "Yes it is, did it make you laugh?" and of course, she just giggled. ;o)

Karen, what is wording on the flying witch--can't quite make it out. Love the way her legs are, and of course her wonderful PURPLE dress! ;o)

Luvs

Karen..
I spotted this site with cute Sayings (for your pumpkin).

I think with your 'Witch Theme'... the one with the 'Witch Hat' saying - 'Witch Way'
with a painted Witch's Hat on it, would be cute. JMO

jane

Here is a link that might be useful:

Cute, cute and more cute, the frog with the witch hat is my favorite, I think. The little hats were a lucky find. I've been jealous of that elf since I first laid eyes on him and he makes a perfect turkey sheppard. I've picked up a few turkeys here and there (imagine that) and am waiting till after Halloween to add them to my fall decor, then I'll post some pics.
Syble

I love them, Karen! And, I think your Halloween tree in the pumpkin is a super idea! I'm using the one I made for my Johnny Appleseed tablescape now as my own Hallowen tree. It's still stuck in my copper planter, but I like your idea of the pumpkin so much better! As for your Ghosties, being a former room mother for many years, I used to have the kids make them out of kleenex and a cottonball. We added eyes with a black marker pen and tied the necks with yarn to hang wherever they wanted once they took them home. I've kept my own kiddo's ones all these years and hang them up at Halloween. This year I have them on our little tree. I hope that I can eventually get some pics of them to show you. I do like the witches hats on your tree, though. That extra color is nice.
Like Jane, I'm loving your witch tea light. Gosh, that's nice! Thanks for showing us all your treasures!!!
Lynn

Karen, those little witch hats are wonderful and you've made them into a unique decoration with the little witch tree. Your elf looks like he is taking good care of those turkeys! That will look terrific in a cloche!

DD

Not once but twice, I have written a message, and I guess I forget to add the message after previewing it, duh.

Karen, your little Halloween ornaments are adorable. I love the way you put your "tree" in the pumpkin. The whole display looks wonderful. - Gail

Karen,

Don't be mad at Jazz, she was just getting a closer look at all your goodies.LOL I'll bet you was grateful that she didn't break your favorite turkey.

We have customers that leave their cats home and when they return and set their cell phones down, the cats will chew them up. It isn't quite as bad now that they no longer have antennas. I was amazed that cats do this.

Thanks for telling us that Luvs made your Witch and Famous black hat. I really like that.

Punk

Jane, I like the Witch Way saying! Really cute.
Luvs, close-up of witch plaque for you. You could make one using her as a pattern. Or paint her on something easily with your ability.

Syble, if you liked the little Frog Witch in my impromptu display, meet her big Mama! LOL
{{gwi:1443571}}

I have a witch just inside the front door too. LOL.
{{gwi:1443572}}

hugs, Karen

Karen, you are just too much--you have the big momma frog witch too! LOL Might have known you'd have your whippet dressed for Halloween too--very cute.

Gail, that sounds like something I would do! I often hit the "return to forum" button instead of the "submit" button--have to remind myself to slow down and READ before I hit anything. Glad to know I'm not the only one! ;o)

Luvs

Karen, I love the big Mama witch frog, and your doggy witch. You come up with the cutest things!

At least you made it easy to know what to get DH for a gift -- Handkerchiefs!

Lee

Love your new little witch hats! The witch ball caught my eye with the frog beside it. Glad to meet his mama! Might have known you would have a witch dog but you forgot to do a bunny!! Very nice display!! Thanks! Jan

Usually I just put a witch hat on Stoney, on the front porch. He gets decorated for all the holidays. But I had a witch hat in my stash I wasn't using, so stuck it on this guy by the front door. (my little grandkids loved it). I need to find a small witch hat that will fit one of my bunnies now. Tho knowing Jazz, he'd probably play with it too. That cat isn't named "Trouble" for nothing!! I hope I survive his teenage stage...he just turned 2, and is into everything.

hugs, Karen

Hi Karen,

Indeed this Halloween display with the tree is wonderful! I love those small hats and ghosts your hanged on the tree and those little witches around it!

And the funny setting with the witch dog, lol. Too cute!

Karen..Jazz sounds like he's 'Marking His Territory',
and being a teenager..flexing his muscles too!
He might be jealous...and needs a costume!
I was in a shop in town, and there was the owner's big Calico sitting inside, named Caramel, with a Sparkly Fru Fru collar on him...and of course when everyone came in made such a fuss. He had this look like, Don't Bother Me...but I Do love the attention.
So, maybe Jazz just needs a little 'Jazzing Up'..LOL

jane

Those are great! All your decorations are so much fun..
Love those toads..if you kiss them do they turn into a prince?? And that acorn elf is so darling!
Happy Halloween, Karen..
Where's your little flying witch graphic you used to use?

Kathleen, I'm right here. Uh, I mean she is right here. LOL

Jane, I have a feeling Jazz would totally freak if I put anything on him. However I often have decorated my cat, Ty.
He is the one I refer to as my "Assistant", as he always had to help me with anything and everything. All the time!
Now he's matured at 7 yrs of age, he mostly just supervises.
LOL. But he'd lay there while I put stuff on him and just GLARE at me. I know he thought I should get a life, or was plotting his revenge. The was last St Pat's Day.

hugs, Karen

Karen...LOL
I love that picture!
How cute is that..and I can see that look in his eye..
'You Better Not Show This To Anyone..Or Else' !! hehe...
They do have pride you know.
I hear what you're saying about Jazz..some pets will accept anything you do to them..then there are others..who are Always suspicious of you. I really believe it's a 'Trust' issue.
Well..glad you got to show Ty off, in his St Pat's finery.
It's amazing he posed so well for it..down deep, I think he loved it! lol

jane

LOL, poor Ty. Give him a big kitty hug for me -- he reminds me somewhat of my sweet cat.
