With this week’s trip to a Florida, I’ll be missing some Halloween time, so I figured that I’d take advantage of friends visiting to spook up my house a bit.
The black and white violins that Guncle Randy and I made on his visit are still on the table, so I used them as part of the decor, added pumpkins, ravens, and then hung the ballerina bats above it all on the chandelier.
And anything looks better under glass. I love to fill my cloches with seasonal things.
The mushrooms have been renamed “poison toadstools” for October.
And OMG, look at the gourd shaped like a swan! It’s a dark, almost black green that I’ll keep for now. Next month, I’ll paint her pearl white and add a crown for winter.
My decorations were pretty easy. I have one drawer that holds my autumn stuff, plus a few pumpkins I also use to give my Good Juju booth some fall flair.
Just enough to give the house a little pick me up. That helps on these days that are getting a little chilly and shorter so that I’m inside more.
