All Dressed Up

Getting Spooky Around Here



As we continue to enjoy our baby (I can't believe he is almost 5 weeks), we are slowly getting our house ready for the fall!!! We have Halloween things up and will be getting pumpkins and corn stalks next week to further spread the autumn cheer throughout our home! I just love this time of year – I love the colors of fall, mixing spooky decorations with simple autumn items, the crispness in the air, pumpkins, and I’ll admit it – dressing up!!! 


Once Halloween is over, the creepier decorations are put away and the simplicity of pumpkins, Indian corn, and wonderful autumn colors all help us usher in the most thankful of times! I love decorating for both!



"The Witches Inn" - where you will find all sorts of poison and items to make the most amazing spells come true!!!


Bones, bouncy ball eyeballs, and skulls surrounded by Spanish moss make for a very witchy display


Crows have found their way to the topiaries!
 


Bones are found throughout the house!

Just a note to you – almost all of the decorations that we enjoy for Halloween were found at the dollar store or the 99 cent store. Very affordable indeed.  
 
Happy Decorating to You,

You always have the best Halloween decorations! In fact, I keep checking your blog to see if you've added a new post so that I wouldn't feel so guilty about not having many decorations myself. Lacking money, time, and skill. Want to come decorate MY house? Eh?

@Bethanne - I seriously got almost all decorations at the $ store. I maybe spent about $10 last year and a few dollars this year (with the miniature skulls). Even the jars are from the 99cent store (except the tall one - I used a 50% off coupon at Michael's for that bad boy).

Good to hear from you :-)
