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!

My Must Watch Spooky Season Movies
One of my favorite things to do during this season besides decorating is to snuggle up and watch my favorite movies! I am not a horror movie person and I have to be in the mood for a thriller. I don’t like to be scared or anything. I love feel-good nostalgic movies that bring me back to a simpler time. All I need is my favorite beverage and a snack and I am in heaven! I posted about all of my favorite Christmas movies here so I thought this year it would be fun to share with you my favorite movies to watch during Spooky Season! Spooky Season Movies I…

Decorating for Halloween
If you know me or have looked at my Instagram around the holidays you would know that I LOVE decorating. Beginning in September I get all my fall décor out and mix it in with my Halloween decorations! My philosophy with decorations is to ALWAYS go for the bargain unless there is a piece that you absolutely love and cannot live without. The clearance section and the discount bins at stores like JoAnn’s, Michaels, and Target are my jam for every decorating occasion! I also like to do holiday crafts when time permits. I don’t really have a theme when it comes to my decorating, I just use what I…
