Halloween Mantel

I've added a few spooky touches to my existing fall mantel including my nevermore raven (made last year),

and a framed witch silhouette,


I also replaced my bookpage wreath with this doily 'spiderweb'.



It's pretty much the same as my fall mantel but with a couple of added creepy touches.

Also around the house, I added some numbers to glass bottles found thrifting, and stacked them on some old black books.



And an old metal "O" spells out a common Halloween greeting!
 

I think we are all ready for Halloween around here.  Now we get to have fun!  We have several Halloween parties in the next few days, including one for our neighborhood, a family one, and my kids' school parties on Monday. I hope you're having fun too!


keep primping,
