So Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. And I admit, I’m using Jayden as an excuse to relive my childhood, only like 10x’s better, lol. I really like decorating our home according to season. It just makes life at home more exciting! I had the opportunity to shop Kmart’s Totally Ghoul selection using Kmart’s 50ft Party and Dawn’s Kmart Halloween Party Bluprint as inspiration.
Halloween Shopping List
Plush Pirate Mickey Treat Bowl
Assorted Candy
3 Hanging Heads
20pk Bats
4pk Spiders
Command Hooks
Freaky Fabric
Pumpkin Lights
Purple Icicle Lights (couldn’t figure out what to do with them)
With a budget of $100, I was able to get everything on my Halloween Shopping List, with enough left over to buy this super cute sorceress costume (which, by the way fits super nice)!
So. How did I incorporate my Kmart finds in our home?
Well, I decorated our front door using the freaky fabric, spiders, bats, and some glow in the dark skeletons I had on hand. I attached the fabric to the door using the Command Hooks and carefully glued the spiders, bats, and skeletons on to the fabric with tacky and hot glue. It was so much fun!
Using the hanging heads and some of the bats, I decorated our Living Room banister which compliment the garland and lights I already had on hand. *makes witch face*
I had enough freaky fabric left over to cover a bench in our entry way. I glued some leaves that I already had to the fabric to compliment our metal tree and jackolantern arrangement. Assorted candies were added to our mini treat buckets to complete the look, but of course we can’t leave them in there! Candy lovin’ toddler on the prowl!
Our plush Mickey went on top of the credenza. It currently houses our cellphones. I strung the pumpkin lights across the credenza. It’s as close as we’re getting to a decorated mantel, lol. Ignore the fingerprints on the photo frame… it is touch screen.
Ahh, that was so invigorating.
