In years past, my Halloween decorating started and ended right here …
at the front door.
A front door with bats flying across the door …
For the tale of my DIY burlap wreath, click here. Oh, and there may have been some swearing involved … 😉
But back to the story at hand. A thrilling tale. Okay, not so thrilling …
and not much of a tale.
You see, some blogger friends of mine were all like, hey, let’s show off our Halloween decorations.
And I was all like, sure, sign me up …
and up I was signed.
After which I went, gulp.
Followed by a BIG GULP!
Clearly I couldn’t just show off my front porch bats flying across the door decor.
So the outdoor décor made it’s way indoors to be a part of my Halloween home decor …
Literally.
It’s a bat invasion. They’re in the living room …
scaring my pillows.
They’re over the fantel mantel …
scaring my wood block pumpkins.
And my dryer vent pumpkins.
They’re in my dining room …
Scaring the dining room diners away …
At eye level …
and beyond …
Those darn bats even turned my fake silk flowers black …
Wait, that’s a good thing. I am on a mission to eradicate fake foliage from my home …
Maybe those pesky bats are a good thing …

These are all such cute ideas! My whole house was decorated inside and out for Halloween. I love Halloween so much.
Me too! Can’t wait for October! 🙂
Great idea. How did you attach the bats to your walls? Inside and outside?
I used those Command strips for both.
