we're in full swing halloween decorating over here so i made a fun kitchen table for the family.
the kids love all the holiday fun of course {& so does mom}.
you can see my earlier version in the year & inspiration here.
the outside of the house is 1/2 done.
the inside of the house is 1/2 done.
there's halloween bins here & there.
some bins are empty by now, while others still wait 1/2 full.
i have some fun stuff planned & hope i can get to all of it in time.
right now i just want everything done {or as done as it's gonna get this year} and the bins put away.
i've sprinkled other details throughout the kitchen & house.
{witch compliments of the diary of dave's wife & the oval frame the graphics fairy}
i know when the kids are grown & gone i won't decorate as much for this holiday so i'm embracing it full force while i can so i have no regrets later.
stay tuned, hopefully i'll have more to share by the end of the week.
skeleton man usually sits on the church pew outside greeting our guests & i simply put him here while i got myself organized but while i looked at this picture i rather liked how he looked.
i might have to check to see if costco has them again this year. best built skeletons for the best price, hands down.
happy haunting.
