So Saturday night we had our annual Halloween party. Handsome Hubby and I love doing this every year. He was especially pleased this year, because I finally relented and told him that he could be a Scary Clown… something he’s wanted to dress up as for years. Since the only companion costume to a scary […]

Pottery Barn inspired Bone Hand Skeleton Vase.
A few weeks ago I was in Pottery Barn, admiring their Halloween decor and decided that I could make something similar at home. I particularly liked this Bone Hand Vase, but did not want to pay $100 for it… so I decided to try and make my own version for a lot less. Here’s my […]
A blinged out Crow Pumpkin
Yesterday I shared the chic Crown Pumpkin that I made for my BFF. I also made her a second pumpkin and wanted to show you that one today. I love crows and ravens at Halloween time, so I made a blingy metallic pumpkin and added this fun black and green crow. (Because who doesn’t […]
Make a spooky sangria with Turning Leaf Refresh wines.
Fall. Crisp, cool, and still a good time for a refreshing beverage. I tried Turning Leaf Refresh wines over the summer and they were quite good. I don’t typically enjoy sparkling (or sweet) wines but these were a nice surprise. I was pleasantly surprised by the Crisp White blend. It was not too sweet, and […]
DIY cloche from a soda bottle.
Yesterday I shared my creepy apothecary bookcase, and today I wanted to show you how to make the quick and easy craft project I added to the vignette: a diy cloche from a soda bottle. For me, the most difficult part of this project was trying to get a photo of the finished project that […]
A creepy “apothecary” bookcase.
I have several beautiful glass bottles and decanters and I like to bring them out at Halloween. Last year I showed you how to make spooky spirits and potions using items you already have in your own kitchen. I decided to set them up in my beachy bookcase and make it look a bit like […]
Easy Halloween party invitations.
Each year I hand make the invitations for our Halloween Party. I enjoy doing it, and I usually try to come up with something a little different each time I make them. However, this year I was so pressed for time that I just did an even easier version of the Halloween party invitations I […]
Halloween decor in my entryway and dining room.
I have definitely gotten the house well on its way to being ready for Halloween. I shared the mantel and the front porch this week and today I wanted to show you the dining room and one of the tables in my entryway. I love the bat wall that we put up in our dining […]
A simple black & white Halloween Mantel
The mantel. That asymmetrical beast… that off-center design challenge… that quirky non-focal point of the room… ugh. I decided that rather than fight with it this year, I’m going for super simple and uncluttered. Just an easy black and white Halloween mantel. I tend to like a classic black, white and orange color scheme at […]
