This is my Witchy Woman, created last night before bedtime. I'll include her today in a display at work.
What alot of work to make but so fun to watch her come to life for a party.
Heres a side view of her face so you can see her long snarly nose sticks out and doesn't lay on her pepper tongue sticking out.
Out the door to head to work to see what else I can create today. A dried red pepper wreath is on my list of want to do's along with another wreath of heaven scented lavender..and plant up some pots too is my hope for this day along with a delivery arriving, filling in empty spots and changing things around and everything else there is to do.
Happy Fall Y'all. Make something with your hands today its good for your soul!
What a delightful witch! You are so very clever. I may look around at our local farmer's market and make a modified version of this for our dooryard if you don't mind being copied. It is the sincerest form of flattery, no? I love it when your imagination goes wild. Such a creative, talented lady. I just know this will be snapped up by the first person that sees it.

Ardi, this is not an original idea. My mama did this sort of thing with me when I was a child out of pumpkins. A witch, a scarecrow, a cat always sat on our back door stoop before Halloween arrived. Country Living punlished a book several years ago for fall and this one is similar to the one they had in their book...so I can't take credit for it other than the doing of it...which was fun but also alot of work. By the way she fell over in the truck this morning on the way to work and broke the end off her nose. I like better the new nose I gave her though so all is well. Have fun making one and be sure to take a pic and share it with me friend.
