Fabulous Fridays: Get in the Halloween Decorating Spirit

Halloween is round the bend! Spooky spooky! What a fun time of year. I am telling you, I think starting about now is probably my favorite time of year. No more summer vacations for me, so I just uped this to my favorite time of year spot. I’m a huge fan of fun and creative décor for Halloween. A little creepy and a little creative touch around your home to honor this time of year is awesome. I am super into the funny and spooky part of the Halloween. The sexually oppressed part where people want to express themselves one day that year, not so much. Hopefully one day, the ladies and gents will leave their Little Bo Peep delicates in the closet.J Here are a few home decorating inpspirations for your home. Enjoy!

So back in the day, Pagans used to burn jack-o-lanterns on Samhain to ward off evil spirits. Samhain, being on the night of the 31 of October. Not to name names, but cultures, religions plunked other holidays, such as Halloween on top of Pagan holidays to crowd out and overshadow Pagan celebrations. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Christmas and Halloween, but come on dudes, that’s mean. Anyways, if you are interested in a little history of the jack-o-lantern, Better Homes and Gardens has a very interesting (and short) article.

How do you like to decorate for Halloween?

Fancy Fridays: Halloween Kicking off the Holiday Season

First off, can anyone believe it’s already starting to be that time? I feel like I’m watching my life flash before my eyes. That said, oooooh I love Halloween time and I love it when people really get into it! There’s just something really cool about those cobwebs, crows, and creepy flowers. Absolutely adore the dark and rich colors. All fun stuff. Not going to lie, but tough times when I got too big for trick or treating. Probably drug it out longer than I’m proud to admit. JHere are a few little pearls of inspiration to make your place extra special for Halloween this year.
