FOR THE LOVE OF ORANGE

HELLO DEAR FRIENDS,
AS I HOP AROUND BLOGLAND I SEE YOU HAVE BEEN BITTEN WITH THE HALLOWEEN INSPIRATION BUG.

       I THINK I HAVE ENJOYED HALLOWEEN DECORATING MORE THAN
               USUAL, I THINK IT IS BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN SHARING
                 IT WITH YOU.  WHEN I VISIT YOUR SITES I AM
                            BLOWN AWAY BY YOUR CREATIVITY.

              THERE HAD BEEN TIMES WHEN I FELT LIKE THE ONLY
                   HALLOWEEN NUT OUT THERE.BUT NO MORE.

I WANTED TO BRING ORANGE INTO MY HALLOWEEN
DECORATING AND IT SEEMS
THAT THE BLACK AND WHITE WAS WINNING.

              CONSIDERING ORANGE IS ONE OF MY MOST
FAVORITE COLORS, I USED IT IN THE DINING
ROOM AND KITCHEN.


I SWITCHED OUT A FEW  PLATES,
DECORATED A COUPLE OF BLACK MOCK FEATHER TREES
 WITH MORE ORNAMENTS AND SMALLS AND NOW
BY MAGIC I HAVE MY ORANGE.


SOMETIMES I FIND WHAT I NEED I ALREADY HAVE.
THIS PROJECT DIDN'T COST A PENNY.

IN TRUTH I COULD PROBABLY DECORATE A
COUPLE OF HOUSES WITH WHAT
I HAVE COLLECTED OVER
THE DECADES.

WHEN YOU BRING OUT LAST YEARS DECORATIONS
IT IS ALWAYS FUN TO SEE THE
NEW THINGS I ADDED TO MY COLLECTION.  IT IS GETTING
 NOW THAT I SEEM TO FORGET
FROM YEAR TO YEAR WHAT I BUY.

I HOPE YOU HAVE BEEN HAVING A BLAST DECORATING.

  3. Your vintage jack-o-lanterns are so cute! Nice project, and it's even nicer that it was free!

  5. I just came over from "That Old House Blog" Cass loved the package.
    I figured if you picked that well for her, I would probably enjoy
    your blog too. I was right.
    You are certainly not the only Halloween nut! Great decorations.
