ππ¦π»πΈ Happy Halloween πΈπ»π¦π
It's that time of year when we celebrate anything spooky, All Hallow's Eve is a celebration of the dead the day before All Saint's Day when we celebrate all who did good. Nowadays it's a chance to dress up and decorate our homes with ghosts, spiders, ghouls and most importantly pumpkins.
I don't carve a pumpkin now our children are grown up but I do decorate the lounge with my Halloween ornaments, although some are more harvest/autumn than Halloween.
Halloween also means it's Blog Hop time thanks to the lovely Jo at Serendipitous Stitching. You need to collect a letter from each blog to reveal a Mystery Phrase. Pop over to Jo's blog to see the list of bloggers who have a spooky letter ....
..... my letter is
Jo asked us all to include a photo of something we have stitched for Halloween. My stitching is my October from Drawn Thread's calendar series. I stitched them many years ago and finished them as box ornaments. A few years ago I took them apart and changed them into flat pieces of fabric backed with interfacing, I change them in my frame each month.

I'll leave you with my decorations including my new leaf dish filled with Chinese lanterns from my garden.
I love the "monthly" frame, such a clever idea. Love all your display too, so great to have a place you can decorate by season. Automn leave plate is very nice, I had a Chinese lantern plant in the garden years ago but it sadly disappeared, here we call it "love in cage"! Happy Halloween. xxx

Thanks for taking part in the Hop this year. I do like your seasonal pieces. I probably have more for this time of year than any other! The tree looks fantastic. I really want one but most of my smalls have been scrapbooked. I'd have to stitch them again, or start some new ones!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love those dried lantern flowers. My mom had some when I was a child. Happy Halloween!
