WITCHES OF EASTWYCK - HALLOWEEN MOUSERS



Thanks so much for stopping by. I have for you the four witches of Eastwyck:) These witches are known throughout the Land of Nod for their good works. They carry their bag of herbs and their brooms wherever they go and are always willing to mix up a potion or two to help their neighbors(or maybe their neighbor's cat....heehee!)

These little gals are much cuter in person than in my pictures! I am having trouble capturing the detail and apologize for the quality. I think it is time for a new camera (or maybe a new picture taker...ha!)

NUMBER 1 - Dk. orange/black stripe blouse, black vest and dk. orange skirt with pumpkin/cat pattern 'TIS SOLD. THANK YOU, SUE.


NUMBER 2 - Dk. orange w/black stripe and black vest 'TIS SOLD. THANK YOU, JOYCE

NUMBER 3 - Dk. orange/mustard plaid skirt, dk. orange vest and black shirt 'TIS SOLD. THANK YOU, NANCY.

NUMBER 4 - BLACK WITH DK. ORANGE VEST 'TIS SOLD. THANK YOU, ROBIN.



The witches are made of aged osnaburg. Their faces are needle-sculpted. Their eyes are black seed beads and their whiskers are sisal. Their hats are made of wool felt and are wired for gentle posing. Their vests are wool felt and their dresses are made of quilt shop quality fabrics. Each witch has their own herb bag made of aged osnaburg and filled with sweet annie. "Herbs" has been hand-embroidered on their bags. Their brooms are made of excelsior with grapevine wire handles. Their arms are also wired for gentle posing and they stand approximately 7 inches tall to the top of their hat.


If you feel "needful" of one of these halloween mousers, please e-mail me at grams1garden@yahoo.com. I gladly accept paypal, checks or money orders. Cost is 29.95 + 4.94 priority shipping. Please specify the number of the mouse you prefer when ordering.

SIMPLE HALLOWEEN BLESSINGS

Hi, Carol, they are too cute. I would love to do a
"Blog This" about you on my blog, I show artists and tutorials, etc., and think my followers would love to see your witches and have an opportunity to order them. Please let me know if this is ok.
Warm Regards,

Carol,

My Wee little Wendi just arrived in the mail. Oh my goodness, she is precious. I love her, she is truly a work of art. You are amazing. I am so glad I found your Blog and was able to purchase this sweet little mouse.

Wait till you see her "Mouse House". She will have her very own pumpkin house completely decorated for Halloween.

Thank you so much.

Hugs

Your mice are wonderful and the photos are lovely although I'm sure the mice are even more adorable in person.
