This 1970's Kimple Haunted House ceramic mold was an estate sale find this past summer. It was fairly cheap, so I picked it up.
It's not signed anywhere, but I'm sure it was a ceramics class project.
I've seen these with a Jack O' Lantern carved in the moon. I'd prefer that to the smiling moon. A witch silouette would have been good too.
I used it to create a little scene as part of my decorations. Here we find a pair of square dancers out trick or treating.
Coming upon the house, they contemplate knocking. |
Phew I was worried for those square dancers. I thought their little porcelain heads might get smashed to bits.
ReplyDeleteWell, they came close. Drac fell over yesterday and created a domino effect. Fortunately, there were no casualties.
DeleteCute piece, and love your little play. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe. It kind of just evolved. I set up the haunted house. Then I added the Trick or Treaters. Then I saw my Frankenstein and Dracula figures and the wheels started turning.
