Halloween In The Living Room




 Ghosts, candy corn and pumpkins have found
 their way to the coffee table. 
The rather ghostly appearance of the sofa is thanks to Shelley Puppy.
 He thinks all sofas belong to him so I threw this old chenille spread over it.


Ghost candles


Ghost cupcakes that I will never make.


I wonder how long the candy will last in the glass jar?


joy and peace

  4. I'm laughing a the "cupcakes I'll never make". I'm going to do a reality check on all the recipes I've saved and clear them out. I don't think those cute ghost candles have you going too far over on the dark side. lol ~ Maureen

  9. I love your coffee table...It looks great with all your things. That bowl of candy corn looks so nice on the table with the magazines. I could curl up on that sofa with a magazine, your book and that jar of candy and be quite content.

  10. I hobbled out to the shed far in the back yard yesterday and surveyed the situation to see if I could see my plastic containers full of Halloween stuff. Couldn't even locate them, so hobbled back in...

  12. Very cute seasonal display. That candy corn wouldn't last long if I was around. There's something about it that I can't stop at just one...handful that is!

  14. What a cute Halloween vignette Olive! I don't like candy corn so you don't have to worry about me eating it but I sure could eat me some of those cupcakes though!! Hope you're feeling better, Gail

  15. Well, if it was here, maybe a day or two. I love the white as a backdrop to all the color in your vignette - see Shelley has done you a favor and added to the Halloween decor. Ann

  21. Ohhhhhhhhh! We love Halloween!!!! She was holding back until October 1st....now maybe she will have an excuse to do it sooner!!! I really like your ghost sofa! How creative of Shelley to help you with that ;) Now if Clovis is as smart as I think he is (he is a cat after all) he will lay in wait UNDER the sheet for Shelley....MOL Sorry but you wouldn't expect anything less from me would you?!?!?!

    Purrs!

  22. How cute! Love your ghostly sofa and the cute coffee table arrangement. I always like the look of candy corn, but never acquired a taste for it, so I would stay a looong time at my house.

  24. Love your little Halloween arrangement Olive. I really did like your comment about cupcakes that you will never make! I'm just like this. I always tear all these recipes out of magazines and keep, knowing that I will probably never get round to trying them. Hope you're feeling a little better today my friend. Hugs.

  30. Cute Halloween touches. I'm jealous of your candy corn. I already ate my black and orange peanut butter candy, so I'm trying not to buy any more Halloween candy. It is so hard!

  31. You always have a funny way with words. Love you, girlie and hope you are feeling better. Love the white candle holder. I want! The photo of the candy corn is adorable.
    Thanks for the hug today. I needed it.
