Sam just gave me a new
Halloween canvas art print
as one of my gifts for our anniversary!
16 years now!
It's titled "Trick or Treat Eve"
by artist R. Fair.
It shows a quaint little town
on Halloween night.
Children dressed in costume
are trick or treating.
A carved pumpkin judging is
commencing by the gazebo,
as well as a bobbing for apples game,
and a party is happening at the church.
I've had my eye on this piece at
Kirkland's this whole season.
It was selling for $39.99 and just this
weekend went on sale for half off at $19.99.
How cool is that?
She snatched it right up, a good thing too,
it was the last one in the store.
It was meant to be!
I knew just where I wanted to hang it.
Right behind my Fitz and Floyd
"Halloween Harvest"
haunted house Cookie jar.
The houses practically match each other.
But that's not all!
There's a little magic to the art print as well.
Voilá! It lights up too!
Little LED's are hidden behind the canvas
to make the lamp posts, windows, and moon
appear illuminated!
So festive!
The whole town is teaming with activity.
There's even a ghost in the graveyard!
I think the Fitz and Floyd witch wants to
get in on the action.
She has a pumpkin for the contest!
She had better hurry,
the judges have almost decided.
In the lower corner of the painting
we find a cornfield with a scarecrow
Perfect for my Dept 56 party crows
candle stick holders and
Treat bowl.
Even the runner ties in nicely.
I had some small Halloween plates
from Kohl's some years ago
that where perfect for the new shelf.
They are small, so my Fitz and Floyd
"Boo" witch treat jar fit right in.
The colors are a perfect match.
I think the whole scene is so much more
welcoming and interesting with my new picture.
It just sets the right mood, and brings
everything to life under the full moon.
That brings us to the end of my post!
Thanks for stopping by
and happy haunting!
