vintage halloween blog party


joan at anything goes here is hosting this vintage party today and i am linking up with my recent spooky little  vintage treasures! i was browsing an antique mall (which is usually too spendy for my thrifty, junky tastes) and spied a little flash of halloween 'something'. thinking it would be very overpriced but curious nonetheless, i turned and picked up this little set of decorative picks.  i couldn't help but smile at the witch's face!  and i smiled even more when i realized the whole cluster of four picks was marked only $3 - i could afford to spend that:)


each figure is covered in some type of velvety material - i cannot think of the correct word, for the life of me!  mr owl is precious - he looks more inquisitive than menacing, to me.



i think this cat might need corrective eye treatment of some type, but i love him as he is



and if you can look at this face without a grin, you're more stoic than i will ever be:)



she just cracks me up


and the necessary pumpkin



as i've said many times, i'm not a knowledgeable junker; i just know what i like when i see it. so this may have been overpriced...and i'm none the wiser!  but it makes me happy and i think you vintage lovers will appreciate it, too.  thanks for stopping by! it's not too late to link up to the party.  thanks to joan for hosting another vintage holdiay blog gathering...

  5. Those picks are "flocked", and what a great find they are! I would have been so giddy to see those, because the prices for Halloween stuff in antique stores is outrageous. Enjoy them!
    Happy Halloween!
