halloween in the hood

October 31, 2011 By Linda Leave a Comment

Happy Halloween!

One of the many things I love about my neighborhood is the number of kids who show up to trick-or-treat at our house. I also love that my neighbors embrace Halloween and get creative with their decorations. 
Ernie the beagle and I took a walk around the ‘hood’ and snapped pics of some of our favorites . . .

I love this webbed fence that our contractor neighbor constructed. Very original.
halloween-porch-decor
This neighbor always displays picture-perfect outdoor decor.

Ernie growled at this in full daylight. I can only imagine the scare factor at night.    
halloween-cobweb-decorations
This was definitely a two-person job …
 
halloween-skeleton-lights
… and I’m “digging” this skeleton vignette out front.
 
I want that giant spiderweb and spiders.
This thing is like a train wreck — weird and creepy and I can’t stop staring.
This house was the first to get all decked out.
I’m loving these spider pumpkins.
My neighbor next door always jump starts my decorating …
… and the neighbor across the street ups the ante …
 
… she’s definitely going for that spooky vibe …
 
… and seems to add more layers and details every year.
I’ll bring this post to a close with some shots of my Halloween house:
 
I snapped this before adding the bats around the door …  
 
 
I added some dollar store skeletons to my DIY drop cloth wreath.
 
The mums no longer look so healthy … I definitely have a black thumb.
And yes, the witch is “out” — and about — snapping pics for the blog …
