Skelly Bucket in Party Hat
- Handmade in America
- Vandolls Folk Art by Rachel Garrison
With wide orange eyes and a toothy grin thatâs a little too excited for comfort, the Skelly Bucket in Party Hat is clearly the life, or afterlife, of the party. Designed by American folk artist Rachel Garrison, this 12-inch paper mache lantern doesnât bother with subtlety. It beams with giddy Halloween energy, looking like it just heard thereâs cake and candy corn at the snack table.
The head, shaped like a slightly decayed skull, is finished in a chalky white with worn speckling for a textured, vintage vibe. Bold painted features bring out its personality, especially the oversized grin that stretches across the face like itâs caught mid-cackle. Paper inserts in the eyes and mouth mean you can drop in an electric tea light underneath and watch this skeleton light up from within, transforming it from a quirky accent to a glowing Halloween beacon.
But the real show-stealer is the removable party hat perched on top. Black and cone-shaped, itâs wrapped in vibrant orange and black crepe paper fringe and sports a classic scaredy cat image right up front. The hat adds just enough chaos to make it feel like this guyâs been dancing on a haunted table since 1923. And he has no plans to stop.
At the base, more fringe echoes the topâs color and texture, tying the whole look together in a way that feels intentionally playful and a little reckless. This bucket fits right in with other vintage-inspired decorations or makes a loud and spooky statement all on its own. Whether itâs resting on a mantel or anchoring a Halloween table display, the Skelly Bucket doesnât need much help to grab a spot in your seasonal rotation. Just give it a light and let that grin do the rest.
