Vintage Halloween

We love Halloween around here.  And love to collect vintage Halloween items.  These are a few of my favorite things from my collection.
Witch cupcake picks.  They may make an appearance this year on top of some Halloween cupcakes.

 Collection of Gurley candles.

The mantel, featuring the Halloween blowmolds.
   
I found this angry little witch this year.
 
A couple more Gurley candles - the witch head and the big skull.
 
More witch blowmolds.
 
Halloween noisemakers. 

Halloween themed sheet music.
  
 Party hat resting on a lampshade.

The newest addition to my collection - an old iron witch boot scrape.
  
Really interesting little brass plate.
  
It has a poem called The Pixie Litany:
From ghoulies and ghosties
And long leggetty beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!

 A collection of Halloween reproductions.

Great crepe paper witch mask,
 
and cat mask, both made by Bethany Lowe.
   
And this fabulous repro witch Fortune Wheel made by The Beistle Company.  The masks and Fortune witch ordered online from The Vintage Halloween Store.

This large wood witch cutout hangs outside.  It is from the Junk Bonanza (last year).
