Just right for a Halloween party or autumn home decor, the haunted house variation of my popular San Francisco Victorian paper luminary shines with spooky elegance.
Host a magical Halloween dinner party by placing one at each plate, creating an evening your guests will never forget.
Plus, I am proud to say that my entire Halloween collection is made of FSC® Certified, Green-e Certified, and Green Seal™ Certified papers made from post-consumer fiber.
DESIGN
San Francisco’s stately Victorian houses are beloved for their intricate trim, and this special version was designed and hand assembled by me to celebrate those traditional details with loads of seasonal spookiness.
I assemble every piece by hand, adding layers of meticulously cut paper until every piece is literally ready to shine. These layers also enhance the strength and durability of each piece.
And I always cut with a blade, never a laser, so you will never see a “toasted” edge in my work.
Its deep, dark, midnight gray paper is just right for showing off the elegant Victorian details surrounding the ground floor windows and door, arches around each upper window, and of course, a black cat peering silently from a front window.
Every thoughtful detail, from the boarded-up windows to the wood-grained roof, is designed to delight.
The windows are "glazed" with white vellum paper, hand-applied inside the facade. Cozy golden light radiates from an amber LED tea light, included in US shipments. When unlit, the windows appear white.
Prefer a little Halloween village? The Victorian and the House of Bats are also available as a set.
SET UP & STORAGE
Your pieces will arrive fully assembled. All you need to do is pop them up and put the tabs through the slots - no glue or tape is required. Tuck in the LED tea lights included with US shipments, and sit back to enjoy the glow.
At the end of the season, simply fold your luminaries back into their small shipping box and slip them into a drawer until next time. They take up almost no space, because no one needs more bulky stuff to store. (Because of its unique steeple, this piece is thicker than most when folded -- close to 1".)
SUSTAINABILITY
Here in Northern California, sustainability is a way of life. Please see my FAQs or About section for information on my sustainability practices. Thank you.
I ship my luminaries in a thin cello sleeve to protect from moisture. If you prefer a paper sleeve, just mention it during check out, and I will happily make that switch.
BUILT TO LAST
The primary criteria for my papers are sustainability and durability. The paper used in this luminary is thick and durable, in addition to being beautiful, eco-friendly and acid free, and the luminary is built to last for many, many Halloweens.
Use flameless, battery-operated candles only.
Listing is for one house only. Haunted house set available in the shop.
