Happy October 1st! And a giveaway!~

 Happy October 1, my friends! The month when autumn truly unfurls, when the cool nights come and even a frost creeps in— leaves change, pumpkins appear on every stoop and roadside stand, and there is something slightly spooky in the air.
   I’m going to ignore the fact that its going to be 90 degrees today and that we’re all weary from some serious teething that has led to some exhausting days (and nights) lately. Everything is better in October, isn’t it?

   I feel like in order to properly welcome in this most beloved month…there needs to be a giveaway. Don’t you? It seems only right. So I filed through my autumn prints and I thought “who better fits October than this miss from “The Enchanted Pumpkin Patch?” 

   And so there we have it! All you need to do is leave a comment on this post (and if you share on facebook, instagram, etc. feel free to leave an extra comment here to let me know you’ve done so and increase your change of winning!) and you will be entered!
   This print is 8×10″, is professionally printed on beautiful and sturdy linen paper, and comes mailed to you in a celo sleeve with a backing board. Perhaps the perfect addition to a spooky fall mantle, or hung on your wall to watch for trick-or-treaters?

   The giveaway will run til next Wednesday— October 8. Good luck!~!   

   Incidentally– the little 4×4″ square paintings with it are still for sale in the etsy shop!~

   And so, I wish you: Happy Autumn! I hope you have a wonderful October!~
