\"6301077870_b15d1cc35b_o\"<\/a>‘Pumpkin head’ is one of the most often heard pet names around the house. And, I mean for the pets. I have no idea\u00a0why I started calling\u00a0my dog and\u00a0cat ‘pumpkin head’, and I never really visualized what the phrase meant. But, now I have!<\/p>\n

This all too cute and beautifully painted pumpkin headed creature comes straight from the imagination of sculptor, illustrator and toy designer, Chris Ryniak<\/a>. The paint work on this is really detailed, and the expression is fantastic. Don’t you just want to cuddle and comfort those poor little guys beside him. What faces!<\/p>\n

Although, I couldn’t find a reference to the materials used in this particular set, resin and epoxy painted with acrylics are\u00a0the most commonly listed material in other similar items I found by\u00a0Chris. He\u00a0has a lot of similar work he shares on his website <\/a>and Flickr pages<\/a>. All of it is incredibly adorable. If you are up for some ohs and ahs, click through and enjoy!<\/p>\n

So a very spirited\u00a0Halloween, Day of the Dead, Samhain, All Saints Eve, or whatever it is you do celebrate today. Enjoy it and stay safe!<\/p>\n
