Halloween Corner Cabinet


Halloween decorating has begun here at Love and Life at Leadora.  I am hosting October BUNCO, so I am forcing myself to get my decorating groove on.

My corner cabinet in the dining room is always the easiest spot to start.  Plus, it's a great place to showcase my favorite and easiest Halloween decorations: black construction paper silhouettes!  I must give thanks to Martha Stewart for this idea, especially since I found all the templates for the mice and owl on her website.  So if you're having trouble like me getting into Halloween decorating, go visit Martha.  Just bring along your black paper, scissors and tape!

  6. Heather,
    Glad you're back! Your cabinet looks fabulous as usual! Love it all! Bunco, how fun! We haven't had a group in ages, it was a lot of fun, I usually did Christmas, that was some pressure!

  7. Darling corner cabinet. I love all your special details. Those black mice are simply adorable. I think I need to cut out some black mice and pose our two kitties near them.

    Halloween hugs!

Me and my daughters started a new blog, and we would love it if you could visit us and follow. I would enjoy coming backa to visit with you and seeing all your creative ideas.

  17. I shall try to cut some mice this year as well:) Here in Finland we have borrowed your idea of Halloween even if we have an own traditional celebration a bit like that, too. In my family we like to mix these two and the children love it. This year we even have some pumpkins!
