Deck the Counters, Halls, Windows and Walls



Halloween at our house:

This is our motion-activated screaming mummy that hangs in the hallway.  We turn him off most of the time.  
He tends to freak small children (and some adults) out.

I couldn't resist the white pumpkins.  Not painted, just white.


My treat jar after dark.  Everything's creepier in the dark.


The glowing skull.  I think skulls must be my fave, since I seem to have a lot.

On my windows... saved from last year.

The great pumpkin.

The dust is purely for effect.

Autumn Leaves Yankee Candle.

The latest addition to my scary collection:  salt and pepper shakers.

Yep, other than finishing off Mauri's costume, and purchasing candy to hand out (which I have, actually... I've we've just eaten it all), we're ready.

And because I promised to share Taylor's job hunt news:  he is now employed at Toys R Us and Dominos.  Sweet.

  1. It looks great. I really love your window, did you make that or buy it somewhere?

  2. Mindy,

    I bought it last year at Party America... I haven't been in this year to see if they still have them (or something better). They are definitely reusable... I plan to keep mine for as long as it will last. I bet it has another 3 or 4 years at least. Happy Halloween!
