Our Creepy Halloween Wreath

Hi, this is my first time posting in this section. I am mostly known for my artwork, but my mental health got in my way of drawing, so I haven’t been able to make art since March. I’ve tried and cried and I’m trying to get back into it. BUT- I went to Michaels the other day and got inspired to decorate a wreath using things I bought there. My boyfriend helped me pick out the base wreath. I haven’t decorated a wreath in a long time, and I’m so happy with how this turned out!

What a creepy, beautiful, perfect wreath! You did such a beautiful job and I’m so glad you found a creative outlet until you’re able to draw again. There are so many ways to make art and I hope you find joy exploring them.

It looks amazing. The dark, drippy, ooky vibe is perfectly emotive, I can see you poured some feeling into the work. Good for you, I hope you’re feeling a bit better.

This is awesome! I love the trailing vines and the eyeballs are great!

It’s creep-tastic! I love that how it probably looks like a fancy fall floral from a distance, but when viewed up close the spooky season of it reveals itself!

That’s ready to surprise little trick-or-treaters on Halloween. Like @TheMistressT wrote, from a distance it looks like a subdued wreath, and then you get closer and the eyeballs are watching you. :laughing:

It’s really beautiful! It’s unique too! Yes, I’ve seen lots of Halloween wreaths with eyeball flowers but the way this is a “half-decorated” wreath is different. Did you add two thicker twigs to add to the wreath base? I like the addition of the moths.

The wreath base was already made, it had the drooping vines, too. My boyfriend really liked the base wreath, I didn’t wanna over crowd the base, so I kept the flowers on the bottom half.

Sadly we don’t get trick or treaters in our neighborhood, they tend to go to the “rich” part of town, so this wreath might surprise Amazon or Door Dash employees lol.

It’s giving me all sorts of things! The Nightmare Before Christmas wreath. The little eyeball fungus in the walls in Labyrinth. The creepy hand eye dude from Pan’s Labyrinth. If they could move and blink that’s it. Solicitor, be gone!

Also have you seen the movie Kiki’s Delivery Service? At one point, Kiki believes she’s lost her magic powers and goes to stay with her artist friend in the woods and not think about it. The time away does her good. It’s a Studio Ghibli movie.
