    Your Halloween posts always make me smile. I adore all of your creative ideas, such fun! My favorite sign of yours is “Yes, I can drive a stick”; love it! Thanks for a fun-filled post.

    I always enjoy your Halloween posts, Mary, and I find it staggering how many supplies you have for this holiday. Honestly, I think you have more than the local stores. I do like those fans. They strike me as being new this year, but perhaps I’m wrong.

    Mary, Your love of Halloween is infectious! I’ve become a “cute spooky” fan and started decorating more over the years for my grands. They look forward to seeing what “Nana” has added to the front porch and kitchen each year. Thank you for the smiles this morning. 🎃👻🧹🧡

    I’m firing up my broom right now to fly over to HomeGoods to see what kind of trouble I can get into! You are so clever, I thoroughly got a kick out of this post and dialogue: “Extra sharp and 100% organic for the maximum Hocus Pocus!”

    Oh Mary… you outdo yourself with every post! I am almost finished decorating and can’t wait to turn the lights on my villages on. I set our dining table with my dear skeletons and didn’t tell Hubby. Poor guy almost fell over when he saw them! Our dog, Cinnamon is quite sure what to make of them. Happy Flying!

  12. September 24, 2025 at 1:42 pm

    Mary your Halloween collection never ceases to amaze me…I agree with the others, you could open your own store you have such a variety. I like how you display your collection each year as you come up with new ways that are so creative. Have a wonderful September….Thanksgiving will be here before we know it. Kari @ Me and My Captain

    Love every single picture. My girls would LOVE those so so much. I no longer decorate for Halloween as all the children in my neighborhood are grown now and we don’t really get much Trick-or-Treaters so I gave away all my Halloween stuff but boy does this inspo make me wish I hadn’t!!! But my girls take turns hosting our annual Pumpkin Carving party and have collected some awesome Halloween things. The witchy stuff is their fav. And I agree with Jenn – your blog is hands down my favorite too. Love everything you do too! Every pic is Pin worthy!!!!

  18. September 24, 2025 at 9:32 pm

    Mary, you are the Queen of Halloween. I am amazed of all the really cool things you have! Cool spooky!

    Hi Mary, I truly appreciate your decorating talents. I , too , get lots of ideas from you ,and love your posts!

  24. October 7, 2025 at 9:43 am

    I feel as if I’ve been Trick or Treating at the best spot in the neighborhood! As a child, I was always spellbound at the homes that went the extra step to set the stage. Today, my neighborhood doesn’t even “trick or tread” door to door. Parents organized block parties years ago, bring in food trucks, jumpy houses, music, etc. It’s always a major event on several streets, but not mine. So I don’t even get the children stopping by.
    I always love seeing how you transform the shed for holidays. I know it takes endless hours, but oh what fun! The collection of signs alone is iconic! Did you make all the fans? Fabulous! I often have good intentions to create decorations, but slow to produce. F
    Fun, fun, fun to visit here with those darling place setting amid this very special setting for Halloween.
    Happy Halloween, Mary!
