Spooky Sculpture Spotlight
With just days ’til Halloween, I’m enjoying the remaining days of all the creepy decorations hanging about! For those who like to get crafty around the holidays or are looking for something a little more unique, these sculptures are certainly eye catching…
From a post at UltimatePaperMache, these pumpkins were made with, yep – you guessed it, good old fashioned Paper Maché. The technique has improved slightly over the years – these pumpkins are sturdy enough to display outside with Christmas lights instead of candles!

Richard’s designs over at Amalgamate Works never cease to intrigue me – often leaning towards the grotesque and macabre, this is a fine example of the sort of work we can always count on from him. This creepy Jack in the Box seems to have crawled right out of a horror flick with it’s almost lifelike welded steel composition.

Loopy Boopy’s handcrafted dolls are truly one of a kind pieces – though her Etsy Shop holds a variety of these spooky creations, “Penelope the Ghost of St. Phillip” truly stood out. Hand sculpted from polymer clay, it’s one of a series of French Quarter Ghosts that appear to be more for decoration than for play, but she would certainly serve as an eye-catching piece in anyone’s Halloween decor.
Have you been up to anything crafty for Halloween?
