It is getting spooky over here! We turned our fall porch into our Halloween porch! I love Halloween and my kids are still at the fun age where they appreciate all the decorations! Welcome to our Halloween porch!
We left all of our fall pumpkins and added in some jack-o lantern buckets I got at Walmart last year (similar here), some inexpensive Styrofoam tomb stones, some skeletons, some bats and now we have a Halloween porch. Simple as that!
We host a pre trick-or-treating get together at our house every year, so I like it to be festive! I will share our full Halloween home tour later this week.
I get most of my pumpkins at Trader Joes, Walmart and a local feed store! Mums were from Lowes this year.
Have you started decorating for Halloween this year? I like to put everything up October 1st so we can enjoy it as long as possible! My job is funny though. . .the house is Halloween, but part of the living room is now Christmas! I am working on some new ideas to share with yall soon so you can order and have in time to decorate your homes! ๐

Awe thanks so much! I actually had them made here locally. Dumpster Diva is a local shop who can make anything. I told her what I was looking for and she made them out of old scrap wood. Etsy is a great place or if you have any local handy people that could make them out of old wood. Best of luck!

How did you adhere your bats to your door. I am planning on using bats on my front door, just wondering what is the best way to keep them from falling down.

I used painters tape so it could easily peel off. It has been working great
