Do you love Halloween? My mom hates it but I’ve always loved it! I love cute Halloween, not gory or anything like that. This year as I was going through my Halloween decor I found a few “spooky” things and decided to use “spooky” as a cute Halloween theme.

Add Spooky Signs

Matilda is back! She really wanted to add a little skeleton flair to the spooky mantel. We added a skeleton sign and a skeleton hand to go without spooky theme.

Spooky Banner

This spooky banner is from My Minds Eye. I draped it across the mantel and it cements the spooky theme!

Spooky Wreath

Black feather wreath is a find from HomeGoods this week and I am in love!! It certainly has a spooky element but also it is just so beautiful and eye-catching. I added it to the side of the mantel.

Spooky Blocks

These spooky blocks echo the spooky theme on the banner. I found them a couple of years ago at JCPenny. I will compile a source list at the bottom of the post of things I used or substitutions if the exact items aren’t available.

Spooky Bats

I love using these PVC bats. I think that about 180 bats were in the package I bought for under $10. Using these plastic bats gives ANY room in your home a spooky vibe!

Pumpkins and Sign on the Hearth

I added a couple of lanterns, small pumpkins and a 1 and 3 sign that I have had for about 10 years.

Add Spooky Flair to Shelves

I also decorated the shelves over our couch with some spooky elements. So if you don’t have a fireplace, you can take these ideas and spookify a shelf in your home!

Spooky Signs

I also found this cute enamel “spooky” sign. Last year I hung it on my front door. This year I hung it above the top shelf.

Spooky Paper Medallions

Paper medallions are an inexpensive way to add Halloween cheer to your home inexpensively. I placed the medallions around the spooky sign and shelves. I filled in empty space with a small spooky black cat frame and a pumpkin.

Add a Spooky Banner

I tied the two spaces together with a spooky banner. These striped banners are also from My Minds Eye and the paper materials mean that they are eye-catching but also inexpensive.

Spooky Pillows

I also found a spooky pillows. My long lumbar pillow that is orange adds a little Halloween boho vibes to the couch!
