I am trying my best to focus on invitations, cake, decorations, and treat bags so that I will forget that he is turning 8 and that he only barely fits in my lap now. Because that would make me sad and I might just tear up a little. Kind of like I'm doing right now.
I thought I would share some more of our decorations - nothing too original, but fun nonetheless! And a lot of stolen ideas! If I can remember where I found the idea, I'll be sure to give a link.

You may remember my Spray Paint Addiction? Well, this is how we used one of our black urns. We borrowed an idea from Susie at Bienvenue and made a not-so-spooky Halloween tree. We spray painted (again!) the branches black and added some ribbon and our friend, the crow (Drew named him "Freedom" - still not sure why!). The glitter pumpkins were inspired by Martha, of course!

Here's our other urn holding one of our glitter pumpkins.


I covered some napkin rings in cheese cloth and added googly eyes for our mummy napkin rings. I got this idea from Matthew Mead's Halloween magazine.

I've had such a good time making our home just a little spookier for Drew's big day! I'll be back with photos soon!

Cute stuff! It sets the mood perfectly. I love the glitter pumpkins especially.
Awe...happy b-day to your big baby:)
Love the decorations...that finger candle is cool...never seen that one.
Hey Stephanie! I actually made your wreath. It looked so cute with all of the fall ribbon. I wanted to post a picture but I gave one to my secret pal, so I couldn't. I love all of your ideas- keep sharing! Miss you!
I love the "craft project gone wrong"...it is perfect for halloween! Usually mine aren't even salvageable!
