What a fun day today is. It’s my return to Good Things Utah! It may not sound like that big of a deal, and you may not have even noticed that I haven’t been on, but I took a little bit of a break from GTU and I’m happy to be back in the saddle.

As I have said before, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to decorate for. I kind of like the juxtaposition of elegance and spookiness that decorating with fake skulls, spiders, and damask creates. I like to decorate with black, white, silver with a dash of khaki and orange. It’s especially striking against my all white walls. Somehow it subdues the inherent garishness that comes with decorating for Halloween and leaves elegance. Weird, I know.

After having worked on Happy Haunting from the beginning, I am thrilled to have it in my hands and decorate using Happy Haunting. Did you know it’s one of the most popular Halloween lines this year? Janet Hopkins outdid herself!

One of my FAVORITE things about this Happy Haunting is the 8 x 10 Ready to Frame Décor Pieces! Isn’t it to die for (pun intended) – Glittered chalk art! Ready to frame and enjoy in your space!

I created this fabulous door hanging. Seriously, I smile when I drive up and see it.

    I love everything about Halloween! I love creating new decorations every year and adding to my collection and then figuring out where everything is going. 😀
    I get so excited when the new Halloween scrapbooking stuff is finally available and I can start a new decor project. As long as there’s glitter, I’m a happy gal!
