Who doesn’t love decorating for Halloween? I know I love it! Every year, I like to decorate a little different. This year, I started by replacing the pictures around the house with pictures from past autumns/Halloweens. This picture I added to my living room mantle is one of my all time favorites (from back in 2001) of my husband playing with the kids before he headed off for a fall hunting trip. I added some gourds and spider web, and fall’s officially here!
I also might’ve added in a creepy picture of some witches (bought on Etsy) …. just to see who notices!
I then placed a few random pumpkins and gourds around the house …
… and some seasonal flowers from the garden.
But it wouldn’t be Halloween without my 3 little friends on the kitchen windowsill (I love these guys!)
For the first time, I added some spiders crawling up the pantry door. The fact that some fell off during the night made it much more realistic (and, yes… they scared the be-gee-baa’s outta me the next morning!)
It wouldn’t be home during October without this guy welcoming visitors …
Some outside pumpkins …
My autumn window box didn’t work out quite as planned! The Texas heat has it a little sparse at the moment.
Thanks goodness I still have a few more weeks to get it in shape!
Happy Halloween!
