A look inside {haunted} Lilac Lane

10.15.12- 

  Hello Monday & a fresh new start to the week.  This past weekend was fantastic!  Thanks to everyone who turned out to The {Fall}Hive & the amazing vendors that were part of it this time around.  I really appreciate you all. 

Hosting something like that is always thrilling, delightful & exhausting to say the least.  Oh, & thanks to everyone who showed interest in & asked about a Christmas show- I will keep you posted.  

{I'll look at my calendar to see if I can squeeze one in sometime soon- we have vacations & trips coming up so I'll let you know!} 

Since I have been a bit preoccupied with getting The Hive all up & ready I realized I haven't shared some pictures of the inside of Lilac Lane now that it is all spook-ified for Halloween before the month is over

{Is it really the middle of the month already?}

  

I just wanted to share a few of my favorite spots around our house that's all dressed up for this time of year.  

-I found these shutters a long time ago & the DI.  I've just held onto them waiting to find a purpose for them & I've enjoyed putting them up to frame the mantle for Halloween & the Fall season-  

-These wire candle wraps may just be my most favorite Halloween decor! I bought them years ago up at Swiss Days & they have been a treasure ever since.  Wish I would have bought 20 more sets to share with friends & clients who absolutely love them & always ask me about them- 

-Am loving how our orange leather couch looks all decked out with a variety of Black & White pillows & prints.  Sets the tone for the entire room- 

-A tight shot of my famous stair ledge that I love to decorate.  I fill the whole thing up with just odds & ends of this & that but I love this drawing that my little witch lover, E, drew when she was tiny. So glad I saved this out of the notebook & framed it.  *Notice the flying monkey up in the corner- sweet!- 

-Even the kitchen has to get decked out for the season. I'm a sucker for anything vintage & these tin & wood signs & cookie cutter box are some of my favs! - 

-I started collecting metal lanterns awhile ago.  It started with the little square one & the green one that I found up at Swiss Days one year.  They line our window sill in the kitchen each & every year- 

?Honeybee wants to know- 

{so leave  a comment & tell me} 

What Halloween collections do you have?

-OooOOoOh- Love they way they look every night when we light them up- 

-Just a couple of favorite little hanging things I put up in the blue bathroom.  No place is undecorated ;)- 

-Another little sweet glittery sign- 

Is your house all decorated & ready for spooky little trick & treaters to arrive soon?  I hope so.  I always love decorating our porch the night before Halloween, it's always so fun.  

I'll be back to show you a few more favorites of Halloween that I do in my decorating around here

{inside & out}  

soon so check back. I'll also tell you when & where you can "tune- in" to see some other charming decorating ideas- Excited!
