Wonderful New Work on Ebay.....

Chris's delightful Pumpkin Pair!!
OOAK grungy pumpkin set. Large pumpkin is wearing a hat with a Halloween scene on the front. Small pumpkin is wearing a black hat with a witch on the front. Both have been coffee stain painted for that grungy look. Eyes and other facial features are all hand painted. The small pumpkin needs assistance to sit while the large one can sit unassisted. Nice holiday accent set.

Heather's delicious candy corn....
5 Primitive Candy Corn Bowl Fillers

Set of 5 large candy corn ornies / tucks add a great addition to your fall decorations. They look great tucked into a cupboard, or added to bowls and baskets.

All of these have been treated to look old and worn, I have grungied them in my special mix, sprinkled additional cinnamon on each one and oven baked them. All are hand painted by me from my own pattern.

Each bowl filler measures from approximately 6" in height and 4 1/2" across at the bottom. A rusty safety pin and coffee stained hang tag has been attached to one of the candy corns. It reads: candy corn.


Heather's wonderful Witches Boots!!! Sooo cute!
I completely adore these witch shoes! An original design by the primitive lady, These are great for the Halloween season, I put mine in the entryway with a witches hat & broom and then you know "The Witch is In". Stitched on heavy weight canvas fabric, painted, coffee stained, and baked with my own secret primitive recipe, and dusted with cinnamon and they smell yummy!

They have coffee stained cheesecloth tied around them and a rusty safety pins attached, and are laced up the front. The Witch must have left them by the doorstep for some time. These are a large pair of shoes 14" long!
I typically finish them off with a scented Halloween hang tag that is either sprinkled with German glass glitter. You can get them extra rusty looking, or mildly prim. You choose and let me know at check out, I have included photos of both pairs I have available you decide which look you like most.
They are Prim Adorable and You Will Love Them! With their cute little pointy tops they are sure to be a whimsical addition to one's Halloween decor.
They will come to you carefully packaged, signed and dated by me.


Here is one by me...
The deep violet painting features a lovely Witch stirring her cauldron on a spooky Halloween night. Her black cat is watching over her work and a violet full moon shines down on them. "Violet Witch" is a 6"x8" panel canvas & is framed without glass and is ready to hang or stand. It has been created with high quality acrylics and coated with an acrylic finish for protection. This piece would compliment any Halloween collection!

And this lovely Spring piece - I do love Heather's paintings!!! Here is..
"Midsummer Eve". By: Folk Artist Heather Millott.

Size is 11 x 14

OOAK (one of a kind)

Pagan Celtic customs honor midsummer as a lesser fire festival. Shakespeare immortalized this lesser fire Sabbat in his play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Faeries are featured in this comedy. Litha (or midsummer) is also the time of another celebration, the Feast of the Faeries. At twilight, the portals between the worlds open and faeries may enter our world. Mortals who welcome them are blessed with joy and wisdom.

This painting was created with professional acrylics hand painted on 11 x 14 Quality canvas panel. In a vintage style silhouette. Sealed with a protective finish. Signed by the artist and dated on the back.
