I showed Halloween decorations a bit backwards this year and am ending with where you start out at my house...at the entrance.
This is my front window peeking in from the street. I have all my blow molds smiling out at people walking by. Honeycomb decorations hang from above.
The past couple of years I have used vintage tattered black umbrellas on my front porch. This year I used the same umbrellas and hunted the neighborhood for a new spooky branch.
I hung a collection of plastic skeletons from the branches.
There are orange lights that brighten the porch at night. I also had three old cardboard skeletons that I clustered on the one side of the front window. You can see them peeking out.
I think that pretty much concludes Halloween decorations for the year. One more week and those trick or treaters will be ringing my doorbell!
Really too cute. You do a fab-u-lous job...and yes, it makes me smile!

Fabulous decor! I always look forward to this post. Love the tattered umbrellas and skeletons. I'll be pulling another all-nighter to get the final touches ready for our Friday party. Halloween hugs!

You have to win the prize for most unique porch decor! The orange lights really add to the ambience! I have my porch cluttered up with all my blowmolds...maybe next year less will be more. lol!

You don't have an age limit do you...I mean I am petite enough to maybe just sneak in. This is a house that would be right at the top of my list.

Wow Laurie you really outdid yourself with this Halloween decor. I've never seen anything quite like it.

I love how you used the stools to change the elevation of the blowmolds to add interest to the scene in your front window. I think the tattered umbrellas are really unique and fun. I can image trying to explain why I need to store broken umbrellas and what I plan on using them for at my home. Well it all looks great together. Sheryl

Of course I love all your decorations but my favorites are the blow molds greeters! Are the hanging honeycombs vintage? I saw some very similar at an antique mall the other day but they were reproductions.
