Witch Trumeau
My sister and I have ben in the business together of designing and making 17th century style trumeau mirrors for the decorative arts market, and thought it would be fantastic to start an elegant line of haunted decorative mirrors, frames, and paintings. We made this one and it is available on eBay now. The moon floor lamp shown was one of a pair and both are sold, but we are already on the hunt for some more vintage floor lamps and I came accross about three the other day. These are large and cumbersome to ship, so I will be saving them for future shows. My idea is to create one of a kind large scale beautiful pieces such as lamps and these mirrors, and smaller table lamps and lanterns for the few of us who enjoy this type of look year round, or for those who have a room or entire house decorated for Halloween year round! We have a few more designs in process now and will be working on some half this size as well. The next one will be all black and orange shades and be reminiscent of the 1920's era decorative halloween graphics. I can't imagine anything more fun!
