This pink Halloween wreath keeps elements of my original design and incorporates bold color. Because, I know I am not the only one who loves pink & Halloween!
This is a brand new option I am adding just in time for Fall decorating.
Handcrafted with care, each wreath is unique.
I was recently inspired to create a new Halloween wreath featuring bats, of course. But, I also wanted to add a spider and let hm take center stage. Spiders are often a theme in Halloween decorations. But, my spider was inspired by actual events – really! Recently, my significant other witnessed a mud dauber flying along, carrying a globe spider. We call them globe spiders, but I think they are actually named orb weavers. Anyway, mud daubers paralyze spiders and whisk them away to their mud houses and stuff them inside. A terrible fate for the poor little spider. So, I thought I’d give my little spider a nice day, scoring a sweet treat!
I’m really happy with the way this wreath turned out and is already inspiring ideas for future wreaths!
The base of this wreath is a lovely biodegradable 18″ straw wreath. It’s good to repurpose when possible, so the bats and spider are cut from old black jeans. After cutting them out, I like to distress my critters a bit too, I just like the effect it produces. The bats are glued to the straw base in random fashion and Mr. Spider dangles inside the wreath holding a piece of candy corn. Spider in constructed from denim and has a painted face. His legs are made from painted fabric wire and his candy is painted felt. Because he swings a bit and may get turned around, I finish his back with black denim so he looks cute from behind as well!

Be one of the first to get this wreath! Ghost Bat Wreath is a brand new design, and I am excited to introduce it to you for your decorating pleasure this Halloween.
Ghost Bat Wreath is a 12″ hand-tied black denim wreath. And, I’ve decorated it for Halloween with a trio of my mischievous little Ghost Bats.
This wreath is about 12″ wide x 2.5″ deep (30.5 x 6.35 cm). But, I can create larger, and even smaller versions of this wreath. Contact me for pricing and availability.
I have not posted for a while. Mainly because the weather is lovely & my garden needs me. I’m still finding time for new designs & lately all I want to do is make Halloween wreaths. I finished this bat wreath yesterday.
And, I was on a bit of a candy corn kick last week, so I made these…
Almost forgot this one. A new “Sad Bat” wreath.
That’s all for now. I have some Caladium to plant.
Another Halloween cutout featuring one of my favorite subjects – bats!
