~A HALLOWEEN VILLAGE~

I am joining Marty for her Tabletop Tuesday.


I wanted to share this little Halloween tabletop set I bought about 30 years ago.  Made of pewter..so they say.  I have no idea really, but it's cute.  I stopped using it years ago..but this year dug it out..and decided to fix it up. 
I bought this little pewter set when my youngest was about ten...so..thirty years ago.

 It had gotten pretty banged up over the years..so this year I pulled it out and touched it up..
There is a little trick or treater and his ghostly little doggie..,

The village pub and the Mr. Pumpkin Head toasting the evening...

  The Witches Flight School...with brand new Witches using the windmill to train on...

A witch using a tree to get a boost perhaps?


Now that I have it all touched up..some new felt?  And then what?  I'll have to figure that out.!
This is a project I have wanted to get done for a long, long time. 

Have a wonderful Tuesday..:)

*Thank you Marty, for hosting this fun Tabletop Tuesday, Party!
Love and hugs,
Mona

  1. That is a great little Halloween village. How cool that you kept it all these years. Probably made better than any you could get nowadays. Looks brand new.

  2. What an adorable little scene! Right up my street(haha)! Even better when there are memories attached. Halloween decorations have only become more available here in the UK for the last 2 or 3 years. Would love to have a shopping trip in the US! Lovely post as usual. Lots of love xx AnneMarie xx

  3. Hi Miss Mona,

    Well, Halloween scares me but I like your little people. Maybe you could arrange them and make a little town for them. Maybe you could find little street lights. (o:

    I just posted Mom's Pumpkin House on the left side bar of my Blog. She designed that all by herself. Wendi is her new Mouse Witch that she adopted from Buttermilk Creek Farm. I will tell you all about her on Friday.

  5. Miss Mona, I know that little village is quite old and very precious.........but......... All those funny people trying to fly, and having pumpkins on their heads makes my legs go to jelly, I'm so scared.
