Early Haunts
Even though I started to voice my excitement for Halloween, oh about two weeks back, now that it’s officially October, I think it’s finally acceptable to share how I’ve begun to decorate.
In an unpredictable blend of black and dark reds, this feather wreath is such an ominous addition to the front door. I won’t be getting any trick-or-treaters this year, but at least my place looks like it would be a prime location for scoring some good candy.
Martha Stewart does everything right, including these bat mirror clings that are a subtle addition to my living room. I love the eerie effect they create and since they’re made of black vinyl, I can use them year after year.
These skull candle holders aren’t available online, but I’ve been enjoying their playfully creepy ambiance for the past few nights. Z. Gallery’s metallic skull and Pottery Barn’s glitter skull are other fabulous options, but since they’re on the pricier side, I might just have to stop in after the 31st for a post Halloween sale.

those skulls are really cool. I love the bat details on the mirror as well. have fun, Emily!
I love that you decorated for Halloween. You’ve inspired me to do the same.
Also: this is totally off topic but didn’t you buy those gorgeous caramel brown Loeffler Randall knee high boots some time back? Or something very similar? If you did, can you send me the link to that post — I want them too!
Thanks
I’m not ususally into Halloween decor, but I have to say that your feather wreath is quite possibly the most tasteful touch I’ve ever seen!
Those skull candle holders are my fav! They look perfect on the drinkie bar!
you’re too cute.
this is very nostalgic.
they don’t even really celebrate Halloween here! So double celebrate for me.
martha definitely does everything right. did you see the latest issue of martha stewart living? i always love their halloween ideas, so creative and stylishly ghoulish. i like your bar set-up, too
mmmh.. batman
The feather wreath looks loooooovely!!! I’d actually have that all year round lol.
The decorations look great, but the Scotch and gin collection looks even better.
Wow, I’m envious. We don’t really decorate for Halloween over here. I’m sad about that!
That feather wreath is awesome! I’ve never seen something quite like it, but it makes so much sense.
I love the bat reflection in the mirror and those glowing skulls! Perfect next to the bar for a Halloween party
i love your decorating and design sense. and i’m totally loving that feather wreath (i’m thinking i need to stop by target after work today). seeing your decorations makes me even more excited about fall!

Great idea with the feather wreath! You’ve gotten me so excited for Halloween!!!
Ahhh Halloween! I hate/love this time of the year when holidays start hitting you left and right. Things always seem to fly by this time of the year, and before you know it it’s New Years Eve! I have an exciting Halloween school project that I’ll be sharing on my blog later when I finish it!
nice idea !! good job
yes, loving the feather wreaths!
emily, great job with the decor! just enough to get you excited for the holiday. p.s. the liquor stash is pretty sweet too.
Halloween! Yes it is here. It is one of my clients biggest times of the year and the collection for costumes this year is AMAZING!
Anyone have plans?
