How's the Halloween decor shaping up for you?

Hope you all aren't as conflicted as I am over what to make next, and where to put it.  As the years have passed I've gotten more and more into holiday decorating.  There was a time however that I wondered what the big deal was.  For the love!

I cannot walk into Hobby Lobby without feeling inundated, INUNDATED I tell you, with ideas.  I think I need therapy to rid my head of the creative voices competing for my attention.

At any rate, I have some fun stuff to show ya.  Courtesy of their 50% off Halloween sale, I finished this little vignette in my kitchen last night.  Love this pumpkin vine and folk artsy bowl there now.



I also added the fabulous BOO printable I told you guys about from The Graphics Fairy.  It's attached with magnets to an old washboard that's been in my family for years.  Uh huh.  It's the real deal.  My great, great, great and maybe even greater grandmother actually used that thing!



Also.  That black and white gingham pumpkin?  $1 aisle makeover!!!  I found it at Target with some hideous red plaid fabric tied around the top.  Took that off and added ribbon and this darling zinc tag (which says Fall by the way, it kind of looks like it says Fail, lol).  Wish I'd taken a before picture so you could see the difference... I thought I might find one on google images (I'd seen another random blogger makeover the same $1 fabric pumpkin), but google just brought me back to my own blog!  Go figure.

So how are things shaping up at your house?  Do you need an intervention too? ;)

Lots more Halloween to come, I'm afraid (bwahahahahahaha)!

I do not enjoy decorating for any holiday other than Christmas, although I do love the things you've done!
