Happy Thursday! Happy Halloween! Yes, it is already Halloween! Where has the time gone? After a rushed morning of getting kids dressed in costumes for school, helping my husband with his costume and making lunches, and feeding the baby, alas no shower but…. I am finally sitting down to write! And yes, it is only 7:54 in the morning! I wanted to share some quick and super inexpensive decorating ideas for………… well next Halloween! Tomorrow when everything gets clearanced out, go make a run for the store and stock up! I always do that and I think it makes the most sense. AND bonus the candy goes on sale too! Hey, come January, those little chocolates are awesome! I try to have a little holiday décor in every room. It just adds to the whole excitement of whatever holiday it is at the time. I hope you enjoy them! They are just fun to do and the kids and in my case my husband are so thrilled when things are decorated towards the season. I feel like it just makes it a bit more special! They really don’t take much time! HELPFUL HINT: Once you have it decorated and you love it, take a picture of how you like it and store it in the decorations, it makes it a lot easier the next year when you are trying to remember how you had it! My friend taught me that and it really is just a fabulous idea!! Have a Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!!
This is a simple and yet cute idea, my kids love it! Total cost $2.00, I got the sign and the little holder at the dollar store. I put it on the counter in the kitchen.
Hanging hats! I actually saw this on pinterest… had to copy! Just took our old witch hats, and used a thumbtack to stick them up, I had dark thumbtacks, but I did go and but clear ones yesterday so next year…. it will be perfect. I also had a little witch hat up there, but hey someone needed it and down it comes!
This another super easy one, I love jars, I love to go to thrift stores and buy the jars! You can use and reuse for so much! This is just a candle, with the skulls on a string, again from the dollar store! You can do a few in a row, very fun!
Scary lights! Just take the spiderwebs and wrap your lights,make a few crooked for an even scarier look! Super easy and there is always a ton of that leftover at the stores, super cheap!
Another shot with the lights, I think they look great even when the lights are off!
I love the spider webs! You can turn anything spooky! This is a large mirror, there are a few spiders mixed in the web!
This is one of my favorite things to do! Last year it was a piece of chocolate cake, this year cinnamon rolls! I put it on my little butcher block. I just took a little plate , placed on top of tiny bowl underneath to give some height, put a cinnamon roll on it and added mice! Again, all the mice were from the dollar store, I leave it up the whole season off Halloween décor, so use something that won’t mold…. People always love this one! Display it in your kitchen!
Cute,hungry little mouse! Make them look like they are really eating it!
