Adios to my witch's little lair...

I am putting up the Halloween haven today and I thought I would share a few pictures o the witch's lair before it was carted off until next year. Hope ya'll had a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
Now time to gear up for Thanksgiving.

out door door table....

Here is my outdoor dining table....

an old door on a table base. 

I will be taking pictures today of it dolled up

for fall this afternoon,

but I thought I would share a before picture from the end of the summer.

a bit of a before picture.

Happy Halloween, ya'll!

enter if you dare....

A few more haunts in the house...

Halloween is my favorite holiday,

if you couldn't tell already.

have yourself a haunted Halloween!

the witch's lair....

Enter if you dare....

to my witch's lair.

I creeped up the living room and dining room

by creating what I picture a witch would have in her lair.

between the chairs is a huge black wrought iron cauldron.

filled with candy to lure the prey inside.

(notice the Edgar Allen Poe pillow)

an overview of what awaits you...

loads of candles on the mantle

for those late nights spent infecting and dissecting.

specimens for the potions and lotions...

bones of  those who have been in the wrong place at the wrong time

rest on the buffet

with ravens perched around.

more to lair to come

if you dare to return!

A maw-ha-ha Halloween...

A Mwah~Ha~Ha Halloween

in a spooky stone cottage.

Come check it out if you dare...

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays!

You can be as creepy and dark as you want to be,

and it just seems inspired...

I love making staying up late

and making the house look like a haunted mansion

while the girls are sleeping.

They think it is so much fun to walk around

and see what I have done in the night.

Ms. America 1913...

Spanish moss and crows go a long way for me.

I like things to look like they might have actually came out of an old haunted mansion.

painted black hydrangea...

I did not get any good picts of it,

but I also threw old white sheets on the sofa and two chairs

in the formal living room

to look like an abandoned old house.

Boo to you!

Happy Halloween!
