Yep, I make up words all the time! :) "Halloweeny-fied" has a mighty fine ring to it if I don't say so myself!
So, as promised (although a little late today), I finally got pictures of my front porch all Halloweeny-fied!
My $2 candleabra from the Christmas Tree Shoppe! I LOVE that place! :)
WAIT! Before I show you anymore pictures, you know I always feel the need to point out my shortcoming and beg for designer forgiveness!
Yes, my pillows are still all summery looking! I actually have outdoor fall looking fabric I got on clearance at Joanne's a couple months ago recently that I haven't gotten around to making slipcovers out of of!
And yes, I do have a bright green extension cord for my lights! I had good intentions to replace it with an appropriate one...but you know time gets away from you and before you know it's two weeks before Halloween and your all like...f-it. Yeah, that's pretty much where I am with the green extension cord now.
Oh...and mums! Yep, I actually do plan to buy a mum for my red planter I moved by the door. But it could easily slip into the green extension cord category. ;)
Ok, phew....I fell better!! Moving on:
My Halloween Ribbon Wreath from this post, I forgot needed something to HANG from, duh, so I added this bow and some ribbon to hang it from.
Here's some of the goodies spread throughout my flower bed:
My little mum that was transplanted last year. We weren't sure if it was truly a mum, but saved it anyway just in case...last year it sprouted one flower. This year, she's growing up. ;)
And a Praying Mantis even stopped by to add to the outdoor fun!!
Ok, so there you have it! My Halloweeny-fied front porch and flower bed! :) Most of the stuff in the pictures I've had for years. I just add one or two items to it ever year.
One last thing...Melissa at Bursts of Creativity is having a Halloween tag giveaway!! She did 5 tags everyday this week and they are FABULOUS! Stop by and check them out and tell her which one you'l like to win! :)
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!! :)
Until next time...

ReplyDeleteI really love that wreath! The whole porch and flower bed looks sooo spooky-cute! I am ashamed to say that I have not one meager Fall decoration on my porch as of right now. Matter of fact, I still have all of my patriotic stuff from Labor Day out! Oh well, I suppose it will get done now that I have some help at home each day. (wish it wasn't for the reason it is...)
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job overall with everything you did inside as well. And you made most of that in a week! So I wouldn't be apologizing for anything if I was you there missy! lol
Have a wonderful weekend!
