I love the time between Halloween and Valentine’s Day, especially when it comes to decorating around the house. Unfortunately, with a ‘normal’ size home and a family full of artists there isn’t a lot of room left for decorations, which are primarily relegated to our front door and living room mantle.
This year I am going for old school look. The plan is to buy the vases, paper mache’ and real pumpkins, and make the lighted tree branches and felt ‘Halloween Candy Bag’ banner. With any luck, I can get my mantle tricked out by next weekend – which really will be a treat!
