{personal} halloween

My husband absolutely loves Halloween and has gotten me into the Halloween spirit more since I met him. Every year we decorate for Halloween and this year was our first in our new apartment. We have many more decorations, but these are a few of my favorites! I love adding to our collection each year and making it last as long as possible (we start decorating the first week of September). Happy Halloween!

PS. In continuation of our mutual love of LEGOs, we've collected almost all of the LEGO Minifigures Monsters Series (the trick-or-treating skeleton is my favorite).

{personal} halloween collection

As stated in my last post, I love Halloween decorations that are spooky and eclectic. Bell jars, apothecary jars, laboratory jars, spiders, hands, bones, eyeballs, a heart that actually beats... This creepy collection has grown a lot since two years ago!

{personal} black magic

My husband is a huge fan of Halloween and his immense enjoyment of the holiday has rubbed off on me since our first Halloween together eleven years ago. We love to decorate and our collection has steadily grown over the years. While he leans towards all things colorful and silly and fun, I gravitate towards all things spooky and eclectic and darkly beautiful (this was our setup two years ago). I slowly built the above collection on our dining table over the past few weeks and I love how it turned out!

Happy Halloween!

{personal} skulls

In addition to our Halloween collections, we've slowly formed quite a collection of skulls. Drug store skulls, party store skulls, candle skulls, brass skulls, crystal skulls, alcohol bottle skulls, skull dice... We don't know what it is about them, but skulls are cool, and we actually keep a few of them out all year round!
