Halloween 2014

The weather is brisk and fall-like, the leaves are falling and turning their brilliant colors, and the days are shorter.  Then why do I still feel like I'm in summer mode?  Guess I just don't want to give it up.  But, time waits for no man (or woman) and it's here whether I like it or not.  I have had some Halloween decor up since late September, and I even thought about having a Halloween party, but just can't get in the mood. Most of the decor is the same as last year, but I did add a few things, which I will show you below:

I bought three of these little posable creatures from Party City.  They were very affordable and were a great size for decoration.  Same mantle decor as last year, with my cute little lady added, as well as orange lights.

Another view, with the orange lights on.

Here is another, colors went great in my dining room.  I changed up my Halloween tree a bit and put it in a silver vase.

Here is the third creature, trying to get out of the shower.

I added a few pumpkins, a cute witch shoe, and owl candelabra on the range mantle.

My jack-o-lantern sits in the urn on the table outside.

Moving back into the dining room, I used a small witch's hat as the focal point for this arrangement.

A closer look...

My dining room tablescape--I found this big pumpkin at Marshall's and tried to find another but didn't have any luck.  I think I got the witch at Marshall's as well, but can't really remember.

I used my silver goblets, (and didn't polish them) as well as some very old silver flatware.

The napkin rings also hold a placecard.

Smaller pumpkins were purchased at Pier 1.

I bought glittery purple candles, but the color was off, so I didn't use them on the table.  Instead, these black ones are battery-operated with a timer, and they flicker and look sorta old.  

On the server, I added a small bud vase with purple roses.

The candles are awesome, but color wasn't right...

But they worked ok over here, sorry for the blurred picture.

Happy Halloween!
