Or at least it is starting to look like it from in here. Actually, we are getting some storms, and the temperatures have dropped so maybe I am channeling fall after all. So I broke out my Halloween decor and started going to town in my house. I still have lots to put out. I didn't realize I had so much, but while going through all of it, I realized that my tastes have changed. I am wanting a more elegant classic Halloween look, rather than the light up plastic jack-o-lantern look of before. So I may have to add some of this stuff to my garage sale pile. I took some pics of what I have put out so far. What do you think?
Okay, I got a fabulous deal... well okay, not fabulous, but a whole heck of a lot better deal than it was priced at... on this cloche. Michaels had them on clearance for $19. I had a 40% off coupon and I asked if I could use it on this. The guy said sure, so I got it for a little over $11. Cha-ching!!! The pedestal was 50% off at HobLob. I love how it looks.
Okay, see this spider web and spider? Yeah...$4 at Big Lots. Run people, don't walk. How cute is this?
And here is a look at our family room with some of the decor up. I plan to change the candles on the mantle to urns with pumpkins. I'm going thrifting with my sis on Wednesday, so I will be in search of the perfect urns then.
So that is it for now. I still have more to put out, but that will have to wait for tomorrow. I am way tired, and since there are storms on the way, I have a feeling we will be visited by some little people at some point tonight. Ahhh, the joys of sleeping on 6 inches of bed, and getting kneed in the back. Don't you love it?
Have a great night.

Hi Deb,
Love all your fall stuff. It all looks wonderful in your home.
Have a great day,

Your house looks so pretty! I know what you mean about tastes changing about your Halloween decor. My husband LOVES to decorate outside with all the typical tacky light up plastic pumpkins, etc. I let him. Yuck. lol Your Happy Halloween garland came out great! I want to make one... someday!
All your stuff is so pretty!! I love it all! Especially your banner, great cloche, and the little man riding on the pumpkin. SO CUTE!
Hey Deb, everything looks so cute. I really need to get busy with my stuff.
What cute and inspiring fall decor! You did a wonderful job, everything is so pretty! ~Rhonda :)
It all looks FABULOUS!!! What a touch you have.
I am going to go back and look at your photos a little longer so I can take away an idea or two.
Hope you are having a wonderful week,
Krista
PS I did my list of 6 tag
PSS Last night I was telling my neighbor about how you are painting your grout. She had to see it to believe me! We are both going to do this sometime this year to our homes ~ you are so inspiring.
Oh my gosh. I loved every.single.thing! That cloche? I was JUST at Michaels, and I didn't see it. Guess who's going back to Michaels? ;)
I LOVE ALL of your Halloween decorations! You did a great job putting it all together. I would share mine with you but I don't have any :-( Happy Fall!
I want the little guy riding the cat on the pumpkin. That's just too cute. I like your theme with the decorations and I know my tastes have changed. And I've only been decorating my house for a few years! I just love your decorations!!!

I'm like you, I like my Fall/Halloween decor to be a little more elegant. However, for some reason, I love spiders for Halloween. I guess there is nothing creepier...that can be real anyway.
Every time I come to your blog and see the twilight widget my heart skips a beat. I'm so darn excited for that movie! :-)
I love your decor! The trick or treat sign is fabulous!
love all your cute stuff!
Great decorations!! I must have that cloche!!! Knowing my luck I'll get a cashier how won't want to give me a deal like you got!!!
The fall decorations are great copycat or not! Jackie
Cuz, you are WAY too creative and productive. You need to come to my house. We need ALL kinds of help!
All your decorations are so pretty, you've done a great job. I'm in love with the mirror with the big spider web. Loved the earlier post, with the BOO pumpkins.
Love everything. It's looking great.
You have to love those 40% coupons of Michaels and we have them daily at Roberts! Everything looks so nice and beautiful. Your home is lovely and looks ready for fall. I enjoyed my visit!

I'm so going to copy your "Happy Halloween" string on the mantel! I found your blog through a friends and It's great!!!
I looked than I went back and looked AGAIN..it is all sooo gorgeous. Now remember if you have any old Fall stuff that you are tired of see if you can spray paint it first and make it more sophisticated. I did that with a few cutesy pumpkins and it worked. I know you said you got the Marie blocks at Michaels but I couldn't find them...in the diff. sizes. Do you have the cricut expressions? I have the older model. Lots of questions sorry. rofl, cherry
What fun Halloween decor! Your spooky blocks look awesome...aawww, it all looks awesome!
Great decor! Man, I think everyone but me has a cloche! That will be put on my want list...don't want to be left out! LOL
Now you got me wanting to go to Big Lots, lol..have not been there in a couple of months, I guess it's time for a trip back :)
Bella
Great Decor!! Very clever1
I love everything! I actually have the same web but had no idea where to hang it. I think I may try it over a mirror as well. Thanks for sharing!
I love everything it looks great I have that same spider web I usually use outside but now I may use it on a mirrors!
WoW!
I love it all.
