The Manor - Day of the dead decorating

Autumn Fun at The Manor

I can’t believe how much fun they’ve been having at The Manor of late! Day of the Dead and Halloween celebrations – don’t be alarmed by the scissors in the head – a rather too realistic fancy dress prop! Pumpkins carving, cake baking and decorating, and Trick or Treating! And plenty of arts and crafts – painting dry leaves and driftwood for Autumn hanging baskets. Wonderful!Painting pinecones and driftwood at The Manor Exeter Pumpkin decoration at The Manor Exeter
