DIY Halloween: Trinket Pedestal
This was a last-minute addition to my DIY decor but I absolutely love the way it turned out and will likely be making more of different sizes! It was super easy to do and altogether the project cost me less than $10! The inspiration for this came from the candlestick I used for the project.

DIY Halloween: Bat Print Burlap Table Runner
Back in 2020 I did a really fun Halloween Tablescape! I always like to put some decor out in our dining room, I think it rounds out the decor spaces nicely in my house this time if year. For the last tablescape, I used various pieces of fabric that I picked up at JoAnn Fabrics. I loved the look of them but this year I decided I wanted something a little less busy! I love burlap table runners and I thought it would be so fun to create my own stamp to add a little flare! If you decide to recreate this, tag me on Instagram because I would love…

DIY Halloween: Flying Bats
One decoration I saw on Pinterest more than any other was the bat decals in various patterns on mantles, walls, and porches. Basically anywhere you can stick a bat there is a Pinterest pin for it! I looked for the decals on Etsy and Amazon and while the prices aren’t super high for them, I knew that I could do them for cheaper. I have been meaning to do this project for a few years now and I am so glad I finally got around to it! If you recreate this tag me in your photos over on Instagram!
