Halloween Mantel

Here is my mantel dressed for Halloween.  I just love the Trick or Treat blocks that I bought last year after Halloween on clearance.  I had forgotten I had them so it was a nice surprise when I started unpacking my Halloween decor.







Isn't this owl cute!?!  He was also a purchase made last year after Halloween.


This pumpkin spider is just a cupcake holder I bought and put a small pumpkin into that I already had.


These black cats I got at the antique mall.  I love the way they are both looking at the bird cage.  Do you see what they are looking at?

    This is just fabulous! I think I could even try making blocks like this. I love your use of the mirrors. Everytime I see a great Halloween mantle, I get in a panic! I feel like I am so busy trying to blog I can't get around to actually finishing the decorating!

    I love finding something that I bought and forgot about. How fun.

    Come visit and enter my giveaway, today is the last day. I am giving away a Williams Sonoma Copper soup pot.

    You finds are just beautiful.
    I love the way it all came together.
    The cloches are wonderful, I think they are my favorite.
    I was in Hobby Lobby last week and found some of the spider cupcake holders. There was only one set left and I got it. I will be giving mine away to my grandchildren with a cupcake in them, but I really enjoy seeing what you did with yours. Love that,
    Char
