Who says you can't decorate early for this occasion?!
In our old place, we very rarely got trick-or-treaters, even if we decorated. Hopefully, since there are kids on our new street, we might get to pass out some candies!
Anywho, I wanted to share our decorations with you. We sort of went all-out this year! I'll start with the outside!
So, I had this genius idea to cover the garage in caution tape. On Halloween night, we're going to have a strobe light going in there so it looks like a flashing horror house. We're also going to have our fog machine going, with this wicked zombie attachment that we bought; it's going to look like the zombie's mouth is oozing fog. SO COOL.
The tree right outside the office was the perfect place to put our newly purchased tombstones, complete with creepy zombie girl floating in the trees above it, of course. Every time I tried to take a picture, she turned around. Trust me, it's better this way, she's awful looking, LOL.
The skeleton hanging thing to the left makes noise and cackles when you walk past it. IT'S HORRIBLE and we love it! We also covered the bushes in spider webs!
Josh and I made this spider egg sack years ago and it still holds up today. We used a stocking, a Styrofoam ball, plastic spiders, and cobwebs. It looks really cool in the corner of the front patio.
Bloody hand prints on the front window. And Josh in the background! LOL
More cobwebs!
New tombstones near the front path. They look really neat by all the rocks and plants.
A zombie crawling out of the dirt by his tombstone. Love the way this looks! Now, moving on to the mantle in the living room!
I like to "feature" candles on these little pedestals according to the season. Well, for fall, I picked Applewood Bonfire. It smells delicious, like apple and smoldering logs.
I've had this Yankee Candle votive holder for about 3 years. It's cutesy, but I love it. Very acceptable through Thanksgiving, I think.
SKULL!!!
My grandma just gave Josh and I this Halloween "Christmas" tree as a housewarming gift, complete with ornaments and glitters! It's so adorable, and it fits perfectly right in the middle of the mantle.
She also gave us this glittery picture frame. We're going to take a photo of us in our Halloween costumes and put it in there after we attend our friend's Halloween party.
Cauldron!
This is a mini candle holder from Bath & Body Works I bought about two years ago. Love the cat!
The other candle I am "featuring" for fall is Cinnamon & Clove Buds. This one is classic fall, in my opinion.
Finally on the mantle, Josh found this cool color changing skeleton candle at Party City. It runs on a battery and is super awesome. We turn it on at night and it puts off a good amount of light.
Lastly, my grandma gave us this vase filler with pumpkins and leaves and berries. It's another one of those things we can keep out through Thanksgiving! I love the way it looks on our coffee table!
Do you have any decorations out for Halloween? I'd love to see them!
