With 4 teenagers now between the two of us, Halloween is just not what it used to be...
How cute are they???? This was Halloween 1997...
How cute are they???? This was Halloween 1997...
With time, even our decor has changed.No more spider webs or scary moving rats or talking skeletons...
Now we decorate with a less scary but more sophisticated look...
Are you up for a tour? Come in, let us show you what we mean...
Welcome to Clara's house...
where subtle touches in the entryway will let you know that this family is ready for the Season...
The dining room table:Pearls, crystals, and rhinestones happily mixed with burlap and straw...
Shells are replaced by a collection of "fall" paintings, pumpkins and gourds...
More black and orange on the mantle...
and under the cloches...
Yes, things and times change...and as we look back, of course we feel a little nostalgic, but we choose to look forward and get excited for the good things to come because..."If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies"

what a great quote...Clara's home looks adorable...i love the "eek" sign and the little pumpkin gal!!!
I'm not a big Halloween decorator, but your little touches are wonderful. My children are still young, but things are nonetheless starting to change - I do love that quote.
Great touches! I love the pumpkins best...and the kiddos were oh so cute!
beautiful decor! I love the small touches of fall (and Halloween).

When my girls were young we had the most fun at Halloween, now they are grown-ups and I miss the good ole days. Your Halloween decor is lovely, great mix of simplified and sophisticated! Have a good one!
