Now that September is here, is only natural to start thinking about.... Halloween!!! My boys are at that age range where they are getting into the spooky fun of Halloween, but yet a bit too scared of the horror & gore scary stuff. It's tough to decorate for this type of level because you seem to either find cutesy Halloween decorations or uber scary haunted house decor. So this year I am attempting to mix the two. Luckily, Oriental Trading has me covered with their huge assortment of Halloween decor, props, candy, costumes, and much more! So to begin our decorating, I ordered this adorable parrot skeleton along with one of their black birdcages (typically used for holding wedding cards), and some black gauze to add a slight creepy factor. My boys love our new pet parrot and aren't scared in the least bit. We received countless compliments on him! On Halloween night, we will have a haunted house backdrop set up against our garage, with our two pumpkin towers on each side. We will be sitting in the middle, keeping warm by he fire pit, and handing out candy. Other items we have for this year is a hurricane mirrored glass skeleton head and creepy black cloth for our mantel. These cute spiders and ghosts that will hang from our tree during October and be moved to the the awning above our garage on Halloween night to accent our haunted house backdrop. We also ordered this skeleton ground breaker with awesome LED light-up eyes. Originally he was going in out front yard, but I think we might wrap him around our candy bowl.
