Quick announcement before I get started here… The Utah Craft Night date has been set!! It will be Thursday, October 13th. Place TBD but it will be in the Bountiful, UT area. I’m so excited! I also think we will be doing one in Logan, UT on the 15th. So mark your calendars all you good people of Utah! We will be doing almost the exact same projects we did HERE. I do think we will switch out a Thanksgiving board for a Halloween one and add some Christmas fabric to the styroballs but otherwise, it will be the same (I’ll post the final projects next week)! Have a look HERE and see what you’d like to come and make. I’d love to meet you!
K, moving on…. Halloween decor. ::big ginorm sigh:: I have a love/hate relationship with it. I love it because you can get as cheesy and over-the-top as you want but I hate it because the color scheme doesn’t always gel with what I’ve got going on. Case-in-point is my entry way. I really wanted to add some Halloween decor there but I painted it all a fun turquoise/robin’s egg blue a while ago and now the orange and black just aren’t working. Not to mention that the whole “feel” of the place doesn’t exactly scream spider webs and witches.
Regardless of all that, I did want to do SOMETHING in this space to celebrate the upcoming season. So I decided to make a wreath. I had pinned this fabulous wreath from Desiree at The 36th Ave. and was beyond excited to find the same fabric she had used at JoAnn’s!

I love your wreath! I have some of that orange fabric too:) I made my burlap table runner with it!! Awesome job!!
I love that it is understated and just whispers halloween! 😉
I love your reuse of the same straw wreath, all three are fabulous ( I would have a hard time taking them apart!). I have moved 6 times in the last 4 years and this is a great seasonal decor piece that wouldn’t take up much space when being packed around (it’s not like ribbon takes up much space!). Thanks so much for the rad idea!
I love your wreath! I am not sure how to (or whether) to decorate the house for Halloween. It has never been a French tradition, but now that I live in England… Definitely some inspiration here. And Brynn’s wreath is also super cool!
