I love Halloween. It’s low-pressure and all about fun, costumes, and candy. What’s not to like about that?
Because October 1st happened to be on a Saturday, I pulled out all of the spooky goodies and spent the day putting everything out. I did a lot of it during Hudson’s afternoon nap and his little face and smile when he came downstairs and saw everything – adorable.
Some of these pieces are a few years old, others are new. I linked the decorations that are shoppable at the bottom of this post. I applied the paper bats with painter’s tape and the hats are hung with mini command hooks.
I love seeing over-the-top decorations at other houses! We have a more relaxed approach over here, but it’s still festive enough to feel special. I usually move Hector (the skeleton) outside the week of Halloween and if the weather’s nice, we will put a tie on him or a hat. Hudson likes helping me move him around. Hudson talks to Hector like he’s a real person, it’s so funny.
I can’t wait to share the boys costumes this year! Little kids in costume is just too cute. Thanks so much for reading and if you have a favorite Halloween item, I’d love to hear about it! XO –
Just the right amount of spooky and fun!! The witches hat with butterflies is awesome- im sure hector loves it
Love these chic spooky vibes! I may have to get that skeleton corvid! And make a few bats for the apartment…!
I love this idea!! What is the wall color in the foyer? It is perfect!
Thank you! This was the color when we moved in, we didn’t paint it ourselves –
We are a fan of Halloween too! It’s just so fun and I love that it doesn’t have to be scary. You did a beautiful job decorating. I need to try those hanging witches hat. They would be perfect in our living room!

Hi Kathleen! Are your white flowers and greenery in your large vase real or fake? They’re beautiful and would love to recreate that. Your house looks great for Halloween! Have a blast with your boys tonight.
I had an interior designer style it for me from Dutchmans in Athens!
