All Hallows Eve- The Challenge

The end of the year when the harvest has been gathered and we are preparing for the long , cold months ahead . The time when the veil between the two worlds is at its thinnest … Or may be Día de los Muertos - or Samhain - or perhaps Feralia , or even Pomona … Anyway , here are the entries .
Pumpkins on the fireplace - photo by Julie
A memory from Honor , painted in a class with the lovely , late Dawn Catmull .
A super Powertex witches hat and wand by Shirley . They will be busy on 31st !
Sharon had to empty the bottle before she could paint it - and add the pistachio crow .
Catherine was inspired by Plaid ’ s Chris Williams and her stack o ’ pumpkins .
And now for something completely different - Sheila ’ s witches boots painted by Gill .
We inspired Suz to crack open the paints , too ! She has been busy with loads of mixed media stuff for Create and Craft TV !
Julie ’ s photograph captures the colours and mists of the season . Taken at The Garden House , Buckland Monachorum , Devon
And a happy little accident by Kim . After playing with Brusho crystals , he spotted pumpkins !
