House is decorated but still got some crafts to do next half term week. Don't normally decorate the house but lack of trick or treating pushed me to make it special for dd

We have put our decs up for the kids and I may have attempted to crochet some cute ghosts but I’m not very good Blush

chunkyrun · 22/10/2020 22:03

justasking111 · 22/10/2020 22:06

Holothane · 22/10/2020 22:08

I’ve got pumpkin lights for the bedroom and we’ve got Halloween ducks for the living room.

Viv0321 · 22/10/2020 22:11

What type of decorations did you do? Did you go all out?

We have half done ours here.

No. We don't really decorate for Halloween anyway, but will stick some things in the window next week. Will probably make some crafts next week just for something to do with DC and carve a pumpkin.

Oldraver · 23/10/2020 08:38

Is this a new thing decorating a week before Halloween ?

Viv0321 · 23/10/2020 09:28

Oldraver- they’ve been up in our area for a few weeks.

Think people are doing more of it this year for obvious reasons. There's a fantastic giant spider on someone's garage door I drove past the other day.

LunaNorth · 23/10/2020 09:44

I’ve cross-stitched this little chap

Yep the kids wanted to do it and it brightens up the house. More autumn the moment, pumpkins / wreaths. Halloween stuff will go up this weekend.

There is a Halloween trail locally that has been organised so we can take the kids out to look at the decorations instead of trick or treating.

Oblomov20 · 23/10/2020 09:49

Luna, they are really cool!

LunaNorth · 23/10/2020 09:59

Haha, we did ours start of week (to be fair, its because DC is spending half term week, thus the build up to halloween at his dads)
We go proper OTT. I love halloween and autumn.

We even have a projector that we put on at night.

I have scary things in the upstairs windows, things hanging up outside, the dining room is decorated.

Dc has been having themed foods & little bits (drinks in halloween glasses, chocolate covered apples, halloween bath bomb etc)

Ive made a pumpkin into a vase... did an autumn wreath a couple of weeks ago (none halloween related)...

People probably think we are actually crazy. I should imagine our house is getting called all sorts of things... havent seen any other houses really dressed, a couple up the road with Halloween themed stickers in window, but haven't seen any on school run.

Its the only time I wish we lived on a busier road.. all that effort and not many people see it.

I'm sure the neighbours think I've lost the plot GrinHalloween Grin

We are going pumpkin picking this weekend, so will carve and add to display :)

We did ours first week in October, every room in the house has been spookified. Just some crafts left to do
