It’s Spooky Season, Halloween Decor

No Comments

 

It’s spooky season, and I love this time of year. Halloween is such a fun time for kids and adults alike. I get together with a group of friends and we participate in a Witches Walk. We are quite the sight all going out in costume. It is so much fun and I am looking forward to it this year. My costume is all ready to go. I enjoy seeing all of the kids running around the neighborhood dressed up and having a great time. The dogs have new Halloween outfits too.

My house is all decorated for Fall and I don’t want to take tablescapes and vignettes apart or down for Halloween. I just add to what is already there. The family room shelves get a little makeover with webbing and spooky decor. The fireplace area a spooky caldron I picked up looks so cool at night. The entryway does as well.

In the dining room, I added a witch boot floral arrangement and skulls to the table. A few little touches turned the space from Fall to Halloween.

My staircase is always a focal point. I have had the light-up black web garland for years and I love the look. A few years ago I added the ghosts that I picked up at the DollarTree, and I think they added the perfect finishing touch to the staircase.

I sprinkled a little more spooky decor throughout the rest of the house and we are ready for Halloween. Enjoy!

Everyday Life

Halloween 2020

Halloween is one of my favorite days of the year. I love decorating the house super spooky and the dogs too. We live on a small street with not too many kids. On Halloween night I usually have some spooky music on and make up goodie bags for the kids. I always add a mix of candy, toys, and stickers. I enjoy seeing all of the neighborhood kids and they always look so cute.

When our son was younger the kids on the street usually went Trick or Treating together and then into town. They always were creative with their costumes and many years coordinating with a specific theme. The year they did the show Deal or no Deal was a great one. We spent many freezing cold nights Trick or Treating.

This year I really hope the kids can have a night where they can enjoy being a kid again and have some fun. The kids have missed out on so much this year due to COVID. Our area is giving people the option to participate or not, and I hope people do. I know I will miss seeing the kids enjoying the night as much as they will.

Happy Haunting!

Fall Holiday Decor

Happy Fall Y’All

I really enjoy decorating for each season. Each season has its own feel, color schemes, and scents For fall, I like to bring in some richer colors, metallics, and lots of candles. You can never have enough candles. My favorites are ones on timers or with remote controls so you don’t even need to worry about them. Everything looks better with the glow of candlelight, especially with it getting darker earlier in the evening.

A few things I like to do is to concentrate the bulk of my decor in just a few spaces and sprinkle a little throughout the rest of the house. Create a big bang in a few areas. I usually concentrate on my foyer, mantle, fireplace, and shelving in my family room, staircase, and dining table. I will pair some of my high-end Mackenzie-Childs pieces with pieces I find at DollarTree, Walmart, Target, and HomeGoods. They always have a fabulous selection and I frequent them often. All of the box stores have really stepped up their game in the last few years.

As always, decorate however it makes you happy. If you love your decor, it’s perfect. Just have fun with it and hopefully, I can inspire and give you some fresh ideas. Happy decorating.
