Sharing another snippet.I have alot of old paper items. I did not realize how many vintage candy boxes I had accumulated until I set them all up on the top of my china hutch.
Quite a few of them are made specifically for Halloween candy and have Halloween graphics on the box.
These two old paper cutouts are from a local meat market that closed some time ago. They live on top of hutch in my living room.
Vintage paper decorations are often really easy to store as they fold flat. Here are some old paper honeycomb balls in my front window.
I added an old plastic pumpkin and some bump chenille flowers.
More Halloween fun!
Love the flowers in the pumpkin along with all the other goodies.
Hope you are having fun on your road trip!

You are so thoughtful - putting up all of these post for us so we wouldn't go into Magpie withdrawal. Hope you're having a blast with your Mom.

Your big bumpy chenille! Love it! Laurie, if you don't have Krispy Kreme where you are you must let me know. They have the most amazing vintage inspired 12 doz donut box. Completely orange with black silos (don't make me spell!) It's such fun to see your vintage collections come to life for the holidays! Thank you so much for sharing! Elizabeth
