Gothic Masquerade Pumpkins

gothicpumpkin My masquerade pumpkin invitation cards have been popular on Zazzle for a little while, most appropriately used for Gothic weddings and Halloween parties. This year, I decided to make the real-life versions by hand-stitching them in Venetian style with elegant black cording and beautiful fabrics. I’m holding one in my avatar…after almost 15 hours of hand-stitching and yelling obscenities at these things in standard New England tradition. lol

My piratey renaissance neighbor and friend, Faustus, from FriedMush received his skull pumpkin version today…there’s 2 more available RIGHT HERE on Etsy. I decided to give Etsy a try for quick listings for my blog and we’ll see how it goes. Grab them quick if you’re interested – I only have a few days to ship them in time for Halloween. I’ll have them listed all year round though for Gothic and masquerade themed wedding decorations. These are the darkest, most elegant pumpkins available!
