Our Haunted Halloween Home Tour continues today in the entry foyer! Kindly step all the way in please, and make room for everyone. There’s no turning back now.
I used a lacy table cloth that usually goes in the dining room as a topper to the “everyday” skirt on my entry table. I really like how the spiders and webs pop! I switched out the chandelier shades for these black and white DIY shades from a while back. Finally, I put down a black and white outdoor rug that I’ve been using for a couple of years.
Bats are flying high on the mirror. The clings are over 10 years old! They were originally from Michael’s.
I added the cutest little hand made ghosts from Third Bowl Pottery to my collection this year. They are so darling that I wanted a prime spot for them. Inside each is a battery operated flickering tea light that really adds to the ambiance at night. A put one of my favorite candies – Werther’s Originals – in a sterling compote that Mother gave me decades ago.
As always at this time of year, you’ll find rats scampering up and down the stairs. These are cardstock cut outs that I use painters tape to stick to the risers. Like the bats, I’ve used them for many years. Decorations like this are great because they are inexpensive and store flat!
Another thing I enjoy doing is using props for the boys’ costumes in the decor. For example, I tucked this axe in umbrella stand for an unexpected fright.
Overall, it is a pared down scene from normal, but I just wasn’t feeling clutter this year.
The tour continues tomorrow!
