A long time ago my grandma gave me all of the old family pictures. They are framed in plaster frames that are very worn. She said I should have them because there wasn't anyone else in the family who would use them. I used them all right... I placed them on my shelves for Halloween decorations. She is probably rolling in her grave. I then added a few drawings of grave yards and other creepy things in my black and white frames. I added lots of moss and spider webs. I covered purple lights in more creepy cloth (dollar store), added paper ravens around and behind them (dollar store) and put lots of bugs on the walls and shelves. I then filled in with glittering skulls.I filled my clear candle holders with rubber roaches. I added a few blood red flowers and called them complete. For now anyways. I will probably change them ten more times before Halloween.
I hung lots of bats around and on my front door. I added a few paper mice around the room on the closet doors and the base boards. I made my spider cage as I do every year.( I guess for the picture you will have to look at last years post. Sorry but this way I know you are looking! LOL) I hung a very large spider on the wall. My kids really don't like this... They think the spider is watching them! Ha ha after all that was the plan!!
I know its cheesy but I put white sheets over all my furniture. My husband doesn't like it but I think its fun. I wish I had the heart to take new white sheets and tea dye them and even shred them a little. I just can't... But its not over yet!
For my coffee table I created a grave yard. I bought tombstone candles at the dollarstore. I added some more creepy cloth with a few black flowers.
My livingroom is now ready for all the little trick or treaters! The question is.... Are they ready for my livingroom? I hope so!
