The Demon Crashed the Witches' Yuletide Ball!

This year I created my own holiday wreath to go with my black and red tree with red lights. My husband bought a sugar skull mold, which we used to mold plaster skulls. Then I painted all of them and made the wreath, with the help of Houdini. He wasn't too pleased about having his picture taken this year.

You can view the entire painted skull collection here:

And here is my completed wreath. I am sure my neighbors in the apt. building think I am crazy, but I have an Attack Cat up all year round and a doormat that says: Leave. They must be used to my odd sense of humor by now. *wink*

    I have the attack cat sign as well. People seem to be grateful, as the cat is seventeen pounds of angry with one red eye. Not kidding.

    But at least he loves us most of the time.

    Love the wreath!

    I have one of those cats that would just tell strangers to "Leave" too. Love your unique decor
