Full of spooky artworks, ephemera, vintage-inspired makes, rhymes and stories, Creating your Vintage Hallowe'en celebrates the folklore and traditions surrounding this delightfully unique holiday. Read how folk used to celebrate with dressing up, fortune-telling games, parties and plenty of pleasurable spookiness, then recreate your own vintage Hallowe'en with old-fashioned projects, including a carved Jack o' lantern, a witch costume and fun decorations for your home. This book is packed full of little-known facts about the origins of Hallowe'en customs such as bobbing for apples and carving faces into pumpkins, while the charming makes and vintage artworks featuring red-cloaked witches, sleekly silhouetted black cats, cute kittens, cheery goblins and smiling spectres will inspire you to have your own vintage-style Hallowe'en celebration.
