Halloween & Atumn Accessories

**Description** Give your Celebration Wreath a new modern look for every Halloween and autumn occasion with this collection of interchangeable crochet accessories. Mix, match, and rearrange the pieces to create a variety of seasonal displays. Choose bats for a spooky Halloween look, pumpkins and fall flowers for a warm autumn display, or add the spider and web for a touch of creepy fun. Combine the pieces in different ways to create your own unique arrangement, or change the accessories throughout the season whenever you're ready for a fresh look. Each accessory, except for the spider web, is finished with a brooch pin on the back, making it easy to attach, remove, and reposition the decorations without altering the wreath base.
