Halloween, minus the orange...

As I said in my last post, I was feeling way too orange with our Halloween decor and felt I needed to mellow it out a little. We just renovated the house and changed all of the wall colors more neutral and figured I would try something new and do the same with our Halloween decorating...




This is our entry table before....



And this is it now...

Several of the pumpkins I painted black ended up here (see previous post).

In the dining room, I used more of the painted pumpkins and a great old candelabra I found in Maine a few years ago, perfect for Halloween...

Here is our family room mantle before...

And here it is now...

I actually have had the old barn door sitting in our basement for about a year just waiting for the perfect opportunity to use it. It was a "freebie" when we bought the barn wood we used when we renovated our basement.

Using the wood gives a warmth to an otherwise all black set-up...

I found this great wooden tray at a yard sale this summer and felt it was a great opportunity to work with the warm wood tones again and balance them with the white baby pumpkins and the galvanized metal of the watering can.

Thanks for stopping by!
