Martha's Fans Celebrate the Special Halloween Issue

I recently asked the members of the Martha Moments Facebook Group to submit photos of their copies of the special Martha Stewart Halloween issue that was recently published, and I knew I would be impressed. Martha's fans really come through - not only in their support of Martha's ventures but in their creative expressions of enthusiasm for them. Below are the entries I received from Martha fans celebrating the publication of this splendid Halloween issue. Thank you to everyone who participated!

Bernie Wong and Dennis Landon displayed their copy on a Martha Stewart Collection wire rack from Macy's. Next to it is a very realistic faux skull that Dennis received as a complimentary studio audience gift he was given as an audience member at the Martha Stewart Show in New York City, perched on a black Mosser glass cake stand, a gift from fellow Martha Moments member Paul Neumann. Homegrown Kiefer pears are displayed in a French iron urn, and all presented on a Victorian marble-topped table the couple bought from Martha at her tag sale. In the background is a cabinet from Martha's Signature furniture line with Bernhardt from her Skylands collection, purchased with the help of fellow Martha Moments member Aimee Spencer.

Tim Obert displayed his copy in his cabinet, which is filled with his collection of Uranium glass, one that was inspired by Martha. Tim was inspired by the article in the October, 2008, issue of Martha Stewart Living magazine called "Night Visions" in which black light, coloured bulbs and fluorescent paint and tape were used to create projects that literally glow in the dark. 

Anthony Picozzi photographed his copy surrounded by ghoulish looking Halloween decorations - a perfect setting!

Jeremy Lambertson submitted this photo of his beloved Emma reading the issue against a backdrop of some of his Halloween collectibles. Emma recently passed away and we all send Jeremy our love and support as he grieves her loss. Please check out this post featuring Jeremy's extensive vintage Jack-o-Lantern collection.

Brian Utz is shown holding his copy with the six-foot high skeleton topiaries he is building to use as decorations later this fall. Brian has always done Halloween justice. Click here to see how he celebrates!
