Hey there!  Get ready for picture overload because I am sharing our Halloween decor today…finally!  This post has been in the works for a while — the first batch of photos I took I wasn’t happy with, and then I moved some things around and zhushed some things anyway, so I’m glad I waited to share.  🙂

Welcome!  🙂

So, I really like how this vignette ended up turning out, but it took some time.  That web was more difficult to get “right” than I thought it would be!  It was tricky, but I think I learned some things for next time.  🙂  The spider is from Target, and I ended up gluing a small hair clip to the back of him so that I could clip him to the mirror and make it look like he was scurrying down.  I used E6000 — hot glue did not work, just FYI.  Much like my DIY Creepy Crawly Wreath.  The printable can be found here and I always like using a fun one in this frame.

This cloche is from Target, as well as the small skulls and the skeleton hand.  I added a bunch of moss and you should have seen me trying to get these skulls under here…  It was ridiculous, lol.

I hot glued the spider (also from Target) onto the candle votive.  I thought I could sacrifice one in my collection in the name of permanent Halloween decor.  😉

Of course I had to decorate our trays on our coffee table that are a constant staple.  I was just thinking the other day that I may be ready to do something a little bit different here.  Maybe after Christmas…  I do love it, but kind of craving something fresh.

This skull is from the Target Dollar Spot… I think it was $3?  It’s one of those easy little DIY paint projects, but I knew I wanted to keep it white.  I put black sand in the bottom so that it kind of looked like dirt, then layered the moss and placed the skull.  The spider is just an added creepy bonus.  😉

Cocktail napkins from HomeGoods, of course.  They have the best.

Fun skull candles from HomeGoods, too.  I added a little bit of moss for extra spookiness.

The orange-y pillows felt like Fall to me.  The fabric is soft and cozy, too — they are great napping pillows!

My hubby’s pipe station got a little bit decked out for the holiday, too.  He was happy about that — can’t forget him!

This is just a little display in our kitchen.  It takes up valuable counter space, but it’s cute!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you have a great rest of your week.

Hey friends, happy Monday to you!  I hope you had a great weekend.

I’m in Fall nesting mode completely now — always kind of puttering around the house and adding things here, taking away things there, etc.  It’s my favorite thing.  🙂  I had some different types of tea that were in baggies and I thought I would “make pretty.”

I love to get my teas from local places.  One of these is from the Queen Creek Olive Mill and a couple of the others are from my visits to Highland Yard Vintage.  There is an awesome couple who creates their own brews and sells them at the market and they are so so good.  I wish I could remember their name… I will get it for next time.

This is just a scrolly mirror that I use for decor around the house.  I used mason jars for the tea and snipped the ‘to, from’ off of some gift tags to label and tape to the jar lids.  In the center I have my handy tea bag squeezer to strain the bags and looseleaf tea bags that I found at Sprouts.

You’ve seen my espresso pod holder, which is really a ‘small bites’ caddy from Pottery Barn, and my li’l Duralex cups that I use for my espresso are underneath — still within easy reach.  But I’m trying to drink less coffee!  (I say that as I am on my third cup…)  But really.  Trying is the operative word here.  So I thought a pretty tea station would do the trick.  😉  I’ll keep you posted!

Have a great day, friends!
