Goodie - Goodie - Goodie

I found these cute bags at Wal-Mart a few weeks back, there are 15 in a set and were about 3 dollars! They came with those bendy tie things, they remind me of the grocery store!
I had some green ribbon from my Christmas stash! Did just the Trick!
Lil Pumpkins

Hope I made enough! Enjoy!

The Last of the Spooky-ness

I Love My Haunted Houses, I've been given them over the years. Although they are quite a pain to store, they sure look very cute all displayed! This is on top of my entertainment center! I put all different colors of twinkle lights in the houses to make a really neat effect. I found my large web at Beverley's Last year I think it's the perfect place for it!
You can really fill every corner with sweet treats that remind you of Halloween!
I'm working on my collection of glass jars, I love when I can find new ways to use them!

Enjoy the Season!

Spooky Mantle

Here's My Spooky Mantle I hope to add to It next year with some fun wall decals! I really like the Martha Stewart ones, but I think I'll wait tell they go on sale and add them to my collection for next year!!!


Every Year I wish I have a bigger mantle. Trav is working on it let me tell you. I'm just not feeling like tearing into the house when a new baby's on the way! We shall See!


Here I took Old Shutters (painted Black of course), used Big Thick Orange Ribbon to secure my wicker wreath which is usually outdoors, found some Christmas lights to back light the shutters as well as jars. I found these Jars assorted in different sizes forever ago, they really have a ton of different uses! I filled these with water, food die and anything creepy I could get my hands on!


Trav and I found this Glitter Skull head Last year at Pottery Barn we just had to have it:)



Here's a Close up of the Wreath, I'm thinking of using this idea through out the holidays. Very simple to change the ribbon and give it a totally new feel!



I absolutely Love Halloween, I'm a October B-Day so it makes it that much better!!!


Spooky - Spooky

Here's My Spooky Spooky ( as Layla Calls It) Table Scape. I Love this Witch she usually sits on my counter but this year I found I new home for her on my much longer dining table. I found branches out at my dad's orchard and arranged them in two small glass vases filled with moss. I took Spider webs and covered the branches, I then attached spiders to the webs! I found Big chunky candle sticks at a decor store a few weeks back, I'm so excited to finally put them to use!
I filled every candle on the table with a flicker light so it looks very Spooky in the Evening!



If you Ever need a cheap alternative to a table cloth tulle always does the trick and at less then 2.00 dollars a yard you can't beat the price!
Tip: When storing your Tulle it always seems to get wrinkled, best way to re- fluff is to throw in the dryer for a minute or so on a medium to low temp gets it back to new in no time!

I went on a hunt for Black bond old books at the thrift store to give my Candle Sticks some height!

I gathered an assortment of candlesticks, all purchased at second hand stores.



They look very spooky backed by my HUGE spider web purchased at Pottery Barn a few Years Back!
Happy Haunting
