Halloween Decorating...

 I absolutely love Halloween. I love haunted houses, scary movies (as long as the hubby isn't out of town), the creepy decorations and I love dressing in costume to hand out candy.
My two oldest, who love Halloween as much as I do, are away at college so I find that I decorate less each year...this pleases my one remaining child as he just plain ol' hates Halloween and forbids me to put out anything too scary...he must get that from his dad's side of the family.  I guess that just means there's less junk to put away in the end!

I made a few paper mache witch hats, this little bat boy and a glow-in-the-dark spider wreath...I'm going for a glow-in-the-dark theme this year for the trick-or-treaters.
 
Now, if only I could stop myself from eating all the Halloween candy!

Treasures...

This arrived in the mail yesterday...can't tell you how happy I am about it.  I've been wanting this book for some time now (love the movie Out of Africa) but I didn't want to pay a ton of money for it...seems that everyone wants it now because of the zebra stripe cover.  I scored mine for mere pennies (okay, maybe mere dollars, but nowhere near what they go for on Etsy or Ebay)
I got the fantastic antique typewriter at this weekend's flea market for only $5.00...only down fall is that it's REALLY, REALLY heavy.
And these are my other flea market treasures...didn't find a ton of stuff but I'm so happy with what I did find!  $4.00 doll head anyone?  No??
