I LOVE Halloween...Decor.
Monday, October 14, 2013 at 6:00AM I wasn't going to go crazy this year. I'm not having anyone over and I don't even have my kids 2 weekends this month. I was just going to be chill about Halloween decor... maybe put out a few bowls of candy corn and a spider web or two?
HAHAHAHA. Who was I kidding?
Seriously. I LOVE Halloween and nothing makes me happier than decorating. And a total bonus? This year since Lucas and Zoe are a little older, I can finally move away from "cutesie" decor and into a more macabre theme.
Vanilla Moose got creepy this year as I went for more spiders, bats and skulls inside the house.
One of my favorite parts of decorating is pulling out the boxes from the garage and re-discovering all the goodies I have! I had forgotten about my headless horseman and sparkly pumpkin from last year, and pulling them out actually physically, made me happy.
Then there is the outside...
My inspiration this year? Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds.
I had been obsessing about birds for a few weeks. So imagine my delight when I walked into Michaels and they were 60% off! I think I bought them out of birds. Sorry Encinitas/Carlsbad - you can not steal my idea because there are NO MORE BIRDS TO BE HAD. And if there were, I may have bought those as well.

Love the zombie moose!
Those birds are AMAZING!
I love the orange color with the teal of our wall. Also? OMG those birds are creepy!!!
DUDE I love your decorations! Where did you get the birds? I remember ages ago I went to this shop, it was somewhere in the OC with hands down the best Halloween decorations I have ever seen. Gah I wish I could remember the name of it!
The birds look way better than I expected!! They look awesome! Love them on the iron gate. Just perfect.
