Witches' Roses

Even the sunshine can't help this Halloween scene become less scary...At night, add candle votives and be prepared to have the sudden urge to jump on a broomstick and fly towards the moon. ;)

Combine orange roses into a rusted pot. I found this great cast iron pot (or is an authentic old witches cauldron? I'm kind of hoping so, lol) at a garage sale and I thought, "Halloween!" But if you don't have one, any vintage sugar canister or apothecary jar, would work great also. Trim the roses down to size to fit the pot. Tie the end of the stems with a rubber band, to make it a tight little bunch. Add in twigs and water. Complete the scene by adding skulls, bugs, mini pumpkins and ripped up, tattered cloth. A black cat and a broom always helps. ;)
