A look at some of Swirly's favorite collectibles



Here at Swirly we live for the holidays... unfortunately when a holiday is here we are on to the next. So now that Halloween is coming in the next few weeks we are busy working and designing our Christmas collection. So when it comes to decorating, if we had more time we would go all out. This year we settled for a smaller display above. It's an old black amorie we picked up a few years ago at the historical Brimfield Antique show in Brimfield, MA. It makes for a perfect display case for us were we can display our items and still be able to keep them away from little hands.
Here are a few of our favorite pieces













This charming little guy reminded us of our son.
This is a reproduction piece from Lori Mitchell.


This pumpkin boy is from the Jennifer Murphy licensed designs from Midwest of Cannon Falls.



This little witch pail is from the Johanna Parker designs reproduction folk art collection.

  3. I love the little ghost on the black basket at the top of this post. Is that what we can learn to make? I'll have to stop back by.

    Happy Halloween.
