Horace the Pumpkin

Meet Horace. He's a little spooky, a little silly, and impossible to walk past without smiling.

This whimsical pumpkin is hand-stitched by an East Coast Canadian artist. He has a soft, weathered-white body and a crooked twine grin, and his triangle eyes are outlined in jute stitching. A slightly rumpled black top hat sits at a jaunty angle above them. Below, his long striped legs dangle off the edge of any shelf, ending in pointy black witch shoes tied with a bit of twine. Every detail looks like he's been waiting for Halloween for a hundred years.
