I've been slowly decorating for Halloween. We enjoy decorating for Halloween around here and I've added a lot to our Halloween decor over the years but this year I am trying to simplify and not buy anything new. I like the challenge of working with what I have.
Last year our mantle looked like this.. I liked the art I made but didn't really dig the rest of the thrown together look. Funny how you look back at things.
This year I just removed our large art, left the toparies and candles I already had up. I pulled a mirror that was in storage, added a few pumpkins, an EEK I made by simply mod podging (is that a word?) paper to letters from Jo Ann's and hung a Halloween banner. I'm liking it..for now! haha!

Wow ... your style really evolved in just a year - I love it! Great banner too! I read your comment over on Emily Clark's blog about motherhood and just wanted to say how much I appreciated your thoughts. I have 5 kids too - best gifts ever! (How do you have a 17 year old? You don't look much older than that yourself, seriously?!)
