A bristling wreath of bone, beasts, and botanicals.
(And, obviously, candy.)
The skull of a cat is tucked in among a medley of seasonal and thematic items to evoke the thrill of trick or treating and the senses of the season.
It's a walk through spooky gardens on an autumn evening. The decoration on a neighbor's door. The bite in the air, the crisp sound of leaves, the dusty smell of drying marigolds. The distant witch's cackle from a spooky soundtrack down the road. The sweet flutter of anticipation, either of a sweet or of a scare.
All of them combine to feel uniquely Halloween, just as all the pieces of this wreath combine to do the same.
The grouping includes:
-Snapdragon leaves and seedheads
-Marigolds
-Pumpkins
-Rudbeckia ("summerina brown")
-Chrysanthemum petals
-Maple leaves
-Amaryllis ("dancing queen")
-Snake's Head Fritillary
-Pussy Willow
as well as
-snakes
-spiders and webs
-and candy (including, of course, candy corn)
Grab a shirt that will always remind you how Halloween feels.
