Happy Halloween Witch Metal Sign Halloween Welcome Sign

The hat brim carries the greeting.

A dark-haired witch is shown from the shoulders up in profile, eyes closed, chin slightly down. Her hat is wide and pale sage with a soft crown that folds over at the tip, and the words Happy Halloween sit right on the brim in thin white script. A carved heart pendant hangs at her throat on a beaded chain.

Everything around her is gold: curling vines, oversized maple and oak leaves, twisting bare branches, all layered across a mottled black and teal ground. A small bat crosses the upper left, and a horned creature curls into the lower right corner. Her hair spills black and heavy across the lower half of the panel. The gilding and the vine work are printed to look like raised metal on a flat sheet.

It works over a console table or a mantel through October, and the palette runs closer to antique gold than orange, so it does not fight with everyday decor. Buy it for the person who starts decorating for Halloween in August.
