Thanks for looking!

Thanks, Jen! My husband had a heck of a time with the web, but did a great job. If you need any holiday decor, go to At Home (formerly Garden Ridge, off Bryant Irvin) ... they have everything! Most of my decor is very old, but we got several things there yesterday. Christmas stuff is out, too, in the store, which was very distracting. Ooo, shiny! :-D

Mr G taking one for the team .... I am NOT a fan of ladders! Nope. He had to use two different ones....

Wow I love your collections.

Thanks, Kippy! After Halloween, I'll leave everything but the specific decor, and add more fall stuff. I even use my pumpkins for Christmas ... paint them white and make snowmen, and paint some gold and silver. Then, they become compost. I get my money's worth (good thing--pumpkins are pricey this year).

Wow! So much to look at. I'll need to go back and study each photo to borrow some ideas. Thanks to sharing!

Everything looks great! That's quite a lot of work you two put in...I hope your trick or treaters enjoy it.

I noticed the tall tree in your dining room.....can you tell me about it? I'm looking for something like that for my living room. Thanks!

Thank you, nhbaskets and joaniepoanie!

Joanie, the tree is made of dried Yucca leaves attached to real cedar branches ... here it is closer:

I love your decorations. The web is awesome as is the vulture on the television. I don't decorate for Halloween so I'll have to live vicariously through your decor.

Thank you, Fun! I used to do a lot more, especially inside, but ran out of steam this year. :D

I'll bet yours is one of those homes on the tour!

It's neat that your DH is on board with this. Mine (also known as the House Guest) wouldn't notice the decorations...as I proved today when I had to point the decorations out to him after a week.

Wow, I love it all MizGG! I really don't know where to start, but I especially love the owl "hoo goes there?" sign, the indoor decorated tree (I have an Easter one, but have never seen one for Halloween!), the pot full of pumpkin & scary cat faces and the zombie scarecrow!

Over here in the UK we're still playing catch up on the Halloween front, but it's something DH and I have always been into and we decorate in our own small way......in fact I'm feeling rather sad at the moment as only today we searched the house from top to bottom to find the Halloween decs, but were unsuccessful - they seem to have vanished since our house move last December - and I'm just hoping they haven't been thrown away inadvertently as in amongst our treasures there were a couple of porcelain pumpkin tea light holders my mum (who passed away in the Spring) brought back from France about fifteen years ago :@(

Tomorrow we plan to take everything out of the garage in a last ditch attempt to find them - not looking forward to that - but if they're not there I don't feel like starting from scratch with new ones.......

Looking forward to seeing more of your wonderful Halloween/fall decorated homes guys!

Like you, GG, I love Halloween. But, it's been a too-warm beginning of Fall here and I've just put up my Fall decs 3 days ago. I won't be putting up my Halloween decs for another couple of weeks. Your DH is so sweet to help with all yours . . . and they look fantastic! I love that huge spider web and your beautiful blown glass pumpkin especially. The first year we moved here to our mountain home, my then 9 y/o son and I put out Jack-o-lanterns and all sorts of decs outside. The next morning we found most of them eaten by our local wild things. All my decs stay inside now. I love what you've done outside with yours. They're very festiveand fun!

Mustangs, mimiwestbrookgrubb, LynnNM .... thank you so much!

Mustangs, I'm sorry your husband didn't notice your decor. :(

When we were getting to know each other, I was thrilled to learn Mr G was/is just as much into holiday decor as I am .... especially Christmas lights. He goes overboard (in a good way!) with them. I'm terrified of getting on the roof, but his hobby is rock climbing (mountains), so it's nothing!

Mimi, oh, no!! I so hope you find your decor! Funny about the Owl sign .... the day after I took the picture, my husband backed over it with his truck! Mowed down some Zinnias, part of the Crape Myrtle, and sign. I was able to fix it. :-D

Lynn, I think I remember seeing your Halloween decor in years past, and LOVE what you do! Goodness, it always awes me! Please share your pics, can't wait to see. :)

Fun!

Apologies for hijacking: Linen, I've wanted to message you. Thought you were set up for it. Seems like I hadn't seen you commenting lately and was concerned, re: your parents. Everything okay?

Tibbrix, it is fun doing it.....but I never look forward to taking stuff down. :-D

I'm going to call on you soon, need your paint expertise! I'm thinking of painting our front door black, but still not sure. It'll be early next year. I like it now, but am ready for a change after 11 years.

I'm sure you'll get some great suggestions here from many. I'll be on the lookout for the thread.

You certainly go all out! Do you have kids or are you just a kid at heart?

There's a house in our neighborhood that loves the holiday too. I haven't walked by recently, but these are a few pics from last year.

CindyMac, kid at heart and have a kid (well, she's 21, and at college, but still my baby). :D

I love those pictures! Thanks for sharing! I'm jealous of their web, and cracking up at pumpkin buttcheeks. That style house is perfect for Halloween decor!

Edit to add: I'm so curious what the giant jack o' lantern is made of (last pic).

When I lived in a neighborhood, I did Halloween big time. It was my favorite crafting time! Now we live in the country, so no trick or treaters, plus our road has at least 3 Jehovah's Witness families, so they don't "celebrate".... No more fun Halloween stuff for me. I do put up my wooden painted pumpkin!

mizGG, your house is FUN!,

Love your decorations, MizGG. So much fun to see them all. We are in a rural area on a private road, so no traffic or trick or treaters. So I don't decorate outside much anymore. I got out a few things today because I love Halloween and needed to change out things for fall. Made some progress in that direction.

I can't recall the GW member who had the wonderful skeletons all over the outside of her house in various poses. It was great.

Thanks, Springroz and OutsidePlaying!

We live on a very quiet street ... 10 houses total, and mine is on the cul-de-sac. But a new family with little ones moved in, I hope they come trick or treating. :)
