The other day as I was hanging up a ‘Happy Halloween’ banner I purchased, I got to thinking about Halloween decorations and new ways to DIY them. I have also been trying to dream up unique Halloween food ideas. And this is when I had that A-HA moment! Why not combine the two? Iced sugar […]

First off, I would like to say thank you to Minted for sponsoring this post and providing me with several pieces of art that I was able to use in my built-in bookcase shelves. I’ve been a huge fan of theirs for quite a while, and am excited to be collaborating with them on this […]

Hi everyone! I so excited to share with you that my fun paper fan DIY is up on the Eighteen25 blog! Head on over there to see how I used napkins from the Target $1 spot to make these fun Halloween decorations. Can you believe that I was able to make all of these fans […]

Apparently it has become my mission to inject more color into decor. I am not sure what it is about color (and pattern) that I love so much, but it may stem from my mother and our Jackson Pollock inspired splatter painted living room floor growing up. Whatever it is, I am definitely not one […]

By now you may know that I love color. Like LOVE it. So it should be no surprise that despite the season change from summer to fall, color is still very well alive in my house. There is no such thing as neutral decor from my perspective and fall decor is no exception. After redecorating […]

We all know that sweets and Halloween go hand in hand and there are no shortage of fun (albeit complicated) themed desserts out there. Sometimes though, you just want to throw together a fun Halloween treat without a lot of fuss. That is where these easy spider web cupcakes come into play. Just store bought […]

I hope you all had a great weekend! I spent the weekend hanging with family and friends at several birthday parties, but also managed to squeeze in a little craft time. One of the many crafts that I started was this cute Jack-O-Lantern serving tray. It is a fairly quick craft (just a little paint […]

I am so excited to share my Halloween S’mores recipe with you all today. You may recall a month or so ago when I posted about how to make swirly mint chocolate S’mores. This recipe is a take on those, but with a Halloween twist. Who says S’mores are just for the summer anyway?! To […]

When it comes to Halloween inspired breakfasts, you can always pumpkin spicify your pancakes or toast. But I have some ideas on how you can eat a spooky Halloween breakfast beyond the pumpkin. First is this fun green monster take on the smoothie bowl. Don’t you think your kids would love to eat this? And […]

Today’s post is just a quick reminder to think outside the box when decorating for any holiday. Just because something is in your normal decor, doesn’t mean it needs to be removed when decorating for a holiday or special occasion. Take this bat in a cage for example. This blue orb and gold tray are […]

I don’t know about you but to me there is something a little sinister and creepy about the ink blot images of the Rorschach tests. Oops, maybe that lets you read more into my psyche than you should. Anyhow, something about the black and white ink blot screams to be interpreted for Halloween. And that […]

I realize that I have had Halloween on the brain lately (and there is plenty more of that to come), but before Halloween comes fall. Technically it is still summer and here in central Texas it sure doesn’t feel like fall yet, but I figured I would go ahead and rearrange my living room decor […]
