Halloween Decor
Happy Halloween friends! Are you getting all dolled up or is that just for the kids? My little guy will be a Star Wars Stormtrooper, but we are expecting a major rainfall, so we might just have a little party inside. I got a few goodies, some black and orange balloons, a scavenger hunt skeleton and I’ll be making these fun Mummy Hotdogs.

I put up a tiny bit of Halloween decorating this year, which is more than I can say for the last three years combined. But, I’ve had this giant spider forever (in anticipation of decorating for Halloween that never happens) and I felt like he finally needed to be showcased somewhere. The webbing was found in the grocery store Halloween aisle for a couple bucks and is just pinned to the wall. I affixed the spider to the wall with a piece of ribbon around his neck that I also pinned with thumbtacks to the wall.
I found a Halloween metallic spiderweb runner at Homegoods and liked it because it goes with our giant spider. Maybe it’s his baby;)
Ceramic orange elephants have nothing to do with Halloween, except the color, and I thought he looked cute here. Candy corn, on the other hand, is kind of a Halloween staple- except I don’t like it, do you? It’s sitting inside a glass nut bowl. Easy access if you want some.
We don’t get many trick-or-treaters, but for those that come knocking, my son thought they would like Angry Bird gummies.
Oh my gosh, there’s a teeny ghost stealing the candy now! Hmm . . . .
Have a safe and fun Halloween!

love the spider!!
Loving your table girl! So adorable and festive! Happy Halloween and stay dry! We're floating away up here! Pretty sure there will be no trick or treating. May have to set up a spooky dance party in the garage for the girlies! xxoo
Careful, Cassie might eat all that candy corn…or myself. My son absolutely loves it! It's been raining for three days straight here, but that's not going to stop us! Happy Halloween and be safe.
watching the pouring rain outside and hoping it stops for the kiddos! those orange elephants are so so sweet 🙂
Cute set up. I especially like the picture of your little "ghost". I am not a big fan of candy corn either, or at least I used to not be. Now I have some every year. I mix my candy corn with peanuts and if you eat a peanut and a candy corn together it tastes just like a payday candy bar. Delicious. You should try it. You will be hooked on candy corn forever, I promise you that. Anyway, I hope you and yours has a lovely halloween.
I like your cute but spooky vignette! I don't decorate much for Halloween though I feel like its becoming more a big deal (maybe due to all the great ideas on Pinterest?). Watch out for that ghost. Looks like he might sneak away all the candy when you're not looking 😉
Love your little Halloween runner! I'm really hoping that it doesn't rain because I've got a bucket full of candy to pass out!
Love the orange Halloween elephant! So cute!
