Sahara Tann :

Yes I do, I love all holiday but Halloween is my Favorite. lol I have lots of vintage and homemade decor items. I put up a 6 foot long table with a Halloween village with all the trimmings. The houses are all metal and candles illuminate from within. The tops of book shelves and all tables have something that has to do with Halloween as well, Lots of displays. I have a witch collection that is put out. And my favorite is the treat table as it’s become to be know as. All sorts of jars filled with treats and lots of decorations as well. The outside gets some but not a lot as it rains considerably in Seattle. So the front porch has jack o lanterns, spider webs etc. I can’t wait for the Oct 1st because that’s when the decorating begins so we can enjoy it all month long.

Absolutely! I put up purple lights, hanging candles on stakes along the front walk, a black-leaf wreath on the door (with glowing skull centerpiece!) and hang bats from the ceiling of the entryway. The trick-or-treaters always like looking up and seeing the bats overhead! Every year I try to add something new and fun.
