A Halloween Tree

 October is here.

The month of Halloween!


Hello my friends!
I started planning my store Halloween room back in May.
Once I decided on my theme of witches/ witchcraft,
the colors I chose were purple and green.
I knew then I wanted a purple Christmas tree.
I tucked in Spanish moss, black feathers
and gray wood beads for garland.


So for this purple tree,
I then added purple and green lights.


It is hard to see in this pic, but the wall here
I added a witches brew scene I found.
Also hung an adult witch hat from the ceiling.


I had these wire baskets and realized they would fit
perfectly from the dresser drawers.
I just used bakers twine to hang them
 from the  door pulls.

Fun witch hats



These fun tags I made from black cardstock
and metallic letters.


Another tag.
I also made some Cheshire cats,
but forgot to take a close up of those.
You can see them in my second pic.


In the baskets I added witches burrs.
AKA sweet gum pods.
I use these all of the time mixed in with other items.
Great bowl fillers!
Also dried palm artichokes.
 Another item I use in my bowls.


Things were selling so fast, I changed the one
basket to sage smudge.


The palm artichokes up close.


These witch sugar cookies I made.
Sprinkles are in black, orange,
purple and green.

Also these cats. Background is really 

gray and white, but the green lights show this color.


You probably wont believe this,

but I already have my theme for net year.

Halloween Tree Blessings To All!

  1. Bet your hard work will pay off with good sales. Like several things but the black and white cat face in the basket is the 'cat's meow!!!!'

  2. It shows that you love what you do. Hope you have lots of sales. Halloween is a non event here, especially since we have no kids in the neighbourhood.
