Candy Corn Butterfly...

The whimsical creatures that always capture my imagination in the summer garden have inspired a fun series of buggy delights in my workshop this year. And as Halloween is one of my most favorite themes, a mirthful mix of the two subjects gave rise to this sweet Candy Corn Butterfly! A first of his kind, this little sweetie has a delicately painted wooden egg cup base, and a removable top sculpted from papier mache. Indeed, he is a one of a kind that promises to delight! He is available tonight via the EHAG Emporium, where you can shop for unique originals from the talented artists of the Eclectic Halloween Artists Guild! The EHAG Emporium opens and updates at 9pm EST on the last day of each month with fresh works available. I finally squeezed in a little time to make something special and participate this month! Here on my  blog, I am offering additional angles of this sweet piece! If you are tempted, please EMAIL ME to secure this piece! More images, info and price to follow..... Thanks for looking!

Thank you!!!



* With a removable top, you can stash tiny trinkets in his wooden egg cup!


* The thought occurred to me to paint candy corn butterflies on this base... What fun!


* And with hand-formed wire wings and curly antennae, this bug is certainly a fun blend of patterns and textures.....


* Don't you just want to pinch those bulbous cheeks?


* His orange cap is accented with a hooked hat, trimmed in black glass glitter...


* And a wispy collar adds that final touch!


"OH"..."Are you buggy for me? Let me fly to you!".....

Best Wishes,
