Halloween Decorations
Pumpkins and ghosts. We are gearing up for Halloween in our neighborhood. My beautiful girls have kindly asked me “if I could be a little bit more scary with our Halloween props”. Forget that! I am not into skeletons, grave yards and chopped off fingers. But I did invest in 12 new furry rats and 2 large bats!
The leaves outside our home are turning into rich fall colors. I love fall!
Inside the house I do not decorate that much. But we have had this Halloween tree for years. You may call it tacky, yes, go ahead! – but we love it! It is so festive and fun. All the ornaments are handmade.
Call me lazy, but this is all I musted for this year’s Halloween. (Although I pulled out strings of orange mini lights for the boxwood hedges).
No skeleton here folks. Only feathers.
Here are a few of our new furry friends!
Charlie kept me company while I was battling pumpkins, crows and rats.
Now I am ready for all those hords of trick or treaters!
Next year I might try these brilliant Halloween decorations. (Below).

You have done so well Mon! I love the feather wreath, and the home-made tree decorations!
Charlie is fabulous how he is doing the ‘Tyra fierce eye pose’ whilst looking so part of the set – furry rat (adorable too) et all!
Well done sister.

Thank you for the ideas to decorate! I did not know that a Halloween tree dos exist!

Charlotta, Charlie is the perfect cat. Always prepared to be part of any new setting. The other cat always gives me the cold shoulder!
Greet, I am not sure there are actual Halloween trees everywhere – but many people spray paint branches in black and use them as props.
Lovely home and lovely cat (and rats). Did not expect anything else from you!
I love your Halloween tree – what a great idea! And Charlie looks like the sweetest cat, and he fits right in with Halloween decor.

And so do you Kiki Dear! Can’t wait to see what new, modern things you are bringing to your store. Mon.
I’ve never seen a Halloween tree before! It’s cute but I have to say I was more drawn to those antique looking books behind them. They are gorgeous. I love old books!
Charlie looks pretty perfect in that shot – you think he’ll cooperate on Halloween night?
And I love the Halloween tree – what a great idea!
