You all know I love Halloween, but this time I went a bit bananas. Ha. I hosted my neighborhood bunko group for the month of October, and I saw it as a perfect opportunity to do so. In the past I’ve picked a room to spookify (the library and the dining room) and gone all out in that space, but this year I wanted to add a bit of haunt to all of the main rooms. Aside from my Miss Havisham set up, here is how I added some creep. Unfortunately most of these items are old or are sold out, but you can get bones, cobwebs, and candlesticks just about anywhere Halloween decor is sold. Those are my go-to for cheap, easy, and chic decor!
And I have to brag on my sister-in-law for a minute, because she cooked for the 12 of us Bunko Babes, and she knocked it out of the park, per usual. Steak Diane, roasted root vegetables, goat cheese stuffed figs, dark chocolate cake with blackberry ganache, and eerily beautiful blackberry gin and tonics.
Hope you all have the happiest of Halloweens!

Love the creepiness! It’s chic and subtle at times and SUPER in other places. I want a soaring owl for my house!

Everything is stunning. I love how romantically spooky it looks. The white owl is a show stopper and candles remind me of a Harry Potter scene. The food is amazing looking and that cake ..deliciousness to my eyes 👌🏼…

I love it! Everything looks so great! My sister is a big cobweb user during this time of year, but it deters me. Her use of them is so overboard. I love how your understated look seems so realistic. I may be doing this real soon!
