Fall-oween Decor

At lunch today my friends and I were discussing how quickly people are decorating for Christmas now that Halloween has passed. I can't say that I mind seeing the sparkly lights and garlands popping up around the city...but in our home, we try to celebrate one holiday at a time. I don't get crazy with Halloween decor, I just put out a lot of pumpkins and such that can transition from the first day of fall through Thanksgiving.

I found the big guy at Target and just loved the texture and POP that it brought to the dining room. The burlap guy was a surprising find from "at home" which is the new name for Garden Ridge (who knew? I hadn't been there in years!!!). The little guy is from last year at Target.

This little display is in our kitchen area. The painting is BG's sweet little hand print on a canvas. I got the idea from Fancy Farmer Wife! (Thanks for sharing, girl!)

I found these little pumpkins at Pier1 last year and love putting them in different spots around the house. They are a simple but festive touch!

I found this sweet little banner at a local boutique this year. I like the way it looks plus the added benefit of supporting such a great cause! After Halloween I just take the banner and witch down. And leave the "punk-in-knees" as BG says. 

Here's a close up of the tag from the banner.
