Hi friends, welcome back and come on in! Our new place is coming together and I enjoyed the challenge of decorating for Halloween. I do miss my deep windowsills that I used to be able to decorate, but I like how it turned out this year. In our entryway I have my usual styled table. Thankfully all my fragile pumpkins survived the move. Violet gets so excited every night when I turn all the candles and lights on and she usually says “night night pumpkins” as she makes her way upstairs for bedtime.
The foyer at nighttime.
I had to take all our usual decorations off the bookshelf to fit all my Halloween decorations nicely. My grandpa painted these fall pictures.
These poor ghost pillows are taking a beating this year.
I’m excited to have a fireplace and mantel! It’s gas so I envision us turning it on a lot this winter. (Don’t mind all the cords…they’re a work in progress)
I put these kid friendly pumpkins and lantern in Violet’s corner.
I got these coasters for this year, I am a sucker for anything dog and holiday related.
The other new things this year is this tray and Jon’s mom got me this cute pumpkin. I don’t think our counters have been this clear since the day before we moved in. Hopefully we can keep it this way ha.
I love how this pumpkin and sign look in the corner. I realize these bowls have a very random assortment of candy in here. I average about 3 pieces of candy corn a week, it’s more of a decoration. My top three candy is Snickers, Peanut M&Ms, and Reese’s.
One of the casualties of the move was the lid to this vase. I know that I had an extra lid from a prior vase breaking, but I haven’t found it yet…
My morning latte seems to taste better with a festive coffee cup.
Upstairs I have some spooky sheets for Violet and I love decorating her bookshelves with all her Halloween books. Her favorites right now are Franklin’s Halloween and Little Blue Truck’s Halloween.
I put a little pumpkin on her shelves and some gnomes on her painting.
Outside I just have this rug so far, next year I will figure out a cute pumpkin display. I forgot to take a picture so this is just from the stock photo – I’m not that creative yet ha!
Now that we have a basement I have this cabinet that I store some of my holiday décor. We also have a closet under the stairs that I keep my big holiday bins. I think Violet is happy not to have to share her closet with all my holiday décor.
Thanks for stopping by! I made it into the city to see the Upper East Side Halloween decorations so that’ll be up next 🙂
