Handmade Halloween Signs

Handmade Jack-o’-lantern Signs 

Each year I make vintage style Jack-o’-lantern signs out of left over wood from the witch sets I make. 
They are so sweet. Those big pumpkin smiles greet you each time you see them. I love making these guys, using scrap wood, and paint I have on hand from furniture projects.

I use Jolie paint and wax for my signs. It works perfect!  



Handmade Witch Hat Signs

This year I wanted to try making witch hat signs For another twist on handmaid Halloween. Once again, I used scrap wood and paint that I had on hand. I made two versions. One plain, smaller hat, and one larger hat, which featured a famous quote from William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. “Double double toil and trouble, fire burn and cauldron bubble.”



Didn’t they turn out great? I wanted to make these witch hat signs for a few years now and so glad I finally did it. I did end up keeping one large one, and hanging it on my front door on my wreath. I figured I’d add a little more Halloween decor out front. Since the witch hat went right along with my witchy theme outside, it was a perfect addition to the front porch. 



Witch & Black Cat Yard Sets 

It’s been a busy Fall season making handmade Halloween signs and witches! 

This year I also offered customers witch and cat sets. These are handmade by me each year, using heavy duty plywood, and outdoor paint. Each set comes with a witch and two cats, and are ready to install in the ground. We recommend lighting them up with a floodlight, and adding other seasonal goods, like corn stalks, hay bales, pumpkins, and maybe a witches broom. These bring in so many compliments each year by neighbors.
