Under a Blue Moon

Decor, cooking, organization, all the pretty things

Well is this not the perfect skull or what?

Skull

It's from Pottery Barn and it's COVERED in German glass glitter!  My kind of skull. 

I've been in a Halloween preparation mood.  It started out with this rubber stamp from Tim Holz – It's going to be incorporated into the Halloween Party invitation (hey family – is it okay that I have completely taken over the whole invitation business?  It's not like we discussed it or anything). I'm going for a Victorian/Goth/Haunted Mansion kind of feel:

Chandelier stamp  

I'm trying to find a ghostly image to put behind it.

The mornings are getting cooler – when I wake up in the morning I can hear the wind in the trees and the wind chimes gently tinkling.  Even though we will have a good month or two of hot weather during the days I can definitely feel Fall trying to make a presence.  That's probably what is making me think of Halloween.

Speaking of chandeliers I think this would make a great Halloween Party decoration:

Chandelier

We always have the party outside and have a big long buffet table under the eaves.  I think this would be great hanging over that table.  It's a bit pricy for Halloween decoration but so in line with my Haunted Mansion theme.  It's from Gumps.  Who knew they were getting into the Halloween business?

    What do you think of cutting out two box cardboard pieces and spray painting it to make the chandelier (at a more reasonable price?)
