This
doll is just a wonderful, extremely primitive Halloween Ghost
Door Doll. "BOO" is staggered and sculpt stitched, with a little
p-pie spider sewn to the "B".
The
ghost is holding an old burlap pumpkin amde in the old style,
"lumpy & bumpy". Skinny crow is perched on top
of the pumpkin.
He measures approximately 4 feet tall and
12" wide. This is from the top of his hat to the tip of
the gauze at the bottom. He would make a wonderful
display for your door this autumn.
He
is a bit more grungier than these pictures show.
He
wears an old long witch hat that has bits of dried moss here and
there, and it has old rusty bells sewn around the brim, and one at
the tip. His
eyes and mouth are sculpt-stitched and tinted a faded black.
He
holds an old pumpkin wired to his hands by heavy rusty wire.
The rusty wire also comes around the front of the pumpkin and
wraps around the crow several times.
The
pumpkin is made out of burlap and has been painted. It has
been decorated with bits of dried moss. The stem is an old
dried stick with dried grass and a few sprigs of lavender.
It says "Hallows Eve" on it very faded and very light.
The
ghost is covered in layered stained gauze. It has age spots
here and there on it. There are some old rusty bells which
have been sewn on that dangle from the gauze. The gauze is
pinned to his body with rusty safety pins.
There
is a little P-pie (AKA spider) crawling out from underneath the B
in BOO.
Happy
Halloween!
The
doll will come signed and dated. Victoria Lynn, Kentucky
