"Milo the Pumpkin
Imp"
By Sarah J. Arruda
Faery Haven
For Sale: $75

Milo is a pumpkin imp, or more commonly known as a Jack. Jacks live in pumpkin patches, and will often make their home in an oddly shaped pumpkin. Many Jacks make their way to human homes from the patches during the fall, when people are buying pumpkins to carve. Jacks are odd little creatures, who often dress in browns and greens and whose faces resemble that of a carved Jack O' Lantern. Jacks are normally friendly wee folk and love Halloween, but they do not like pumpkin smashers! Beware if you are a prankster who thinks it's funny to smash Halloween pumpkins, because you may just have a Jack on your tail! Jacks have been known to bury people up to their heads in pumpkin patches while they sleep for smashing pumpkins.

Milo is very serious for a Jack.
While the others play and throw pumpkin seeds at unsuspecting humans, Milo
sits in his pumpkin and learns new Halloween poems and riddles. He
loves to have conversations about Halloween tales and folklore or just sit
in a Jack O' Lantern and watch the trick-or-treaters.
Milo is completely hand sculpted from polymer clay without the use of molds. He is sculpted over a wire armature for added strength. Milo has been painted with professional grade paint and sealed. His head is sculpted and painted to resemble that of a pumpkin. Milo is one of a kind and comes with his own certificate of authenticity which includes his number of creation, photo id, and the artist's signature.
