halloween decor

Yay, I did it!!! Not quite as extensively as I could have but the house is lookin’ very Halloweenish 😉 I still have a lot of pieces that didn’t make the cut this year and I didn’t take pictures of everything that I put out this year (gotta save stuff for next year’s blog post, right?) but I am sharing some of my faves. I hosted a Mary Kay party last night and took the entire day off to clean and make food. I was so mad at myself this morning when I realized I didn’t take pictures during the party or of the delicious food that I made and my wonderful friends made…all displayed in Halloween dishes! Oh well, like I said…save some stuff for next year’s post, lol!

I can’t forget to show you Buster and Daisy sporting their Halloween bandannas. They were groomed yesterday for the party…..they enjoyed the guests too…..although by the looks of Buster, he must have gotten into the wine!
