hallow's eve up in here

i decorated for halloween.

i love getting my house ready for the holidays.

especially this time of year.

i think it makes my house feel more homey.

pumpkins, fall leaves, mums...

and then in october i add spiders,

ghosts and jack-o-lanterns.

i still need to buy a mum and get

out my milk carton ghosts,

but things are definitely looking fall around here.

 

i have sunflowers on my mantel,

with leaf garland and orange lights.

i have pumpkin, gourds and my

sparkly jack-o-lantern on the island.

fake pumpkins and gourds with fall sprigs

and orange candles on the dining room table.

spider webs and spiders across the door.

 

 

 

 

next up,

i have a few fun crafts for brette and i to

work on to finish things up.

today i had her paint her pumpkin and

and old egg carton.

i put her name in stickers on the pumpkin

so it would show up through the paint when she was done.

unfortunately, some of the paint peeled off too.

 

 

 

as for the egg carton,

i plan on making some fun bats to hang from our light fixture.

 

 

i want to take our fake bowl of oranges and

turn them into eyeballs! ew.

i've been considering also decorating my front door.
