My friend Shannah is another bridesmaid in my pal Melissa’s wedding, and last night we met up at Artco to brainstorm about centerpieces because somehow we offered to do them. But this post isn’t about the centerpieces, because I was too enraptured by the Halloween decorations! I love them! I even bought the special Martha Stewart Halloween magazine at Barnes and Noble.

Anyway, I thought I’d share some of my favorite glamorous Halloween ideas from Martha Stewart.

As soon as we get moved in (10 days!) I want to tackle some of these Halloween projects! Do you decorate for Halloween? How crazy do you get? My old favorite from growing up in the country was a Barbie on the chopping block with her head off to the side. Looooots of ketchup. And making “cobwebs” out of cheesecloth (the ones up above are from white nylon stockings! Clever!). What tricks do you have in store this year?

    Martha DOES IT RIGHT for Halloween, no? I just love her! Is your friends wedding this fall? I had a fall wedding (Oct.) and I did a lot of my own flowers, I didn’t do the centerpieces, but the idea was mine and I just let the florist execute it… but it was a really easy (and inexpensive!!!) look and I got tons of compliments. Let me know over email if you want more details and I can send pics/info! I love (LOVE!!!) brainstorming about flowers, so happy to help!

    i definitely like the black wreath, b/c i normally don’t do themed decorations but i think the wreath is decorative enough w/out being too much.

    I don’t think I’ve seen such an elegant execution of Halloween theme. These beautiful decors will make you wish it’s Halloween all year long. Of course, we can also count on her to create many more holiday theme. She is truly an inspiration.

    Is it wrong that I wish my house could look like this year-round? I just love how dramatic it all is- like some gothic novel.
