Almost two months ago I pulled out some Halloween crafts and began to work on Viv's Halloween Witch Hat Swap. What a treat when my swap partner's hat (Viv) arrived in the mail recently. This has quickly become one of my favorite swaps.
Decked in Halloween finery and trimmed to creepy perfection. I adore the skeleton hanging off the edge.
Perched atop my spooky tree it is right at home.
New ornaments paired with old ones.
Favorite artist and friends combined.
Shadow boxes and paper clay spiders.
Each with a face more sweet than scary.
A great vignette of fall color...
Waiting for this Halloween Eve.
Viv's hat is so sweet and love all the special touches!! I love your spooky tree with all those awesome ornaments!! Perfection! xo Heather

ReplyDeleteOoooo, all kinds of spooky treasures on your green Halloween tree! I've never seen one like this, but everything just POPS on it, and I'm just batty over it!!!
ReplyDeleteThe hat is really wonderful. I love it on top of that cute tree. Everything looks spooky and cute!
ReplyDeleteThe hat from Viv is too cute, and makes the perfect tree topper!
ReplyDeleteI keep telling myself that I'm not allowed to get a halloween tree, but then I see how darn cute you girls make them...and I might give in!

I love the witches hat as a Halloween tree topper!! That hand is creepy.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet! Love your new hat, and really love the little tree with the ornamants. I am not a huge Halloween fan, but that's mainly the really grotesque and gory stuff that people get into. Cute little kid stuff-- all good!
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween Renee! Such wonderful goodies! I have to get back to my blogging, getting so far behind these days, Marilyn.
ReplyDeleteWhat creative ornies, Renee. How I love the two little girls in the shadow box. They are pure sweetness!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking and praying for you these days and hoping things are going well.
Hugs, my sweet friend.
