It’s Halloween!

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. Probably only second to Christmas. Vintage Halloween decor is RED HOT and has stayed that way for years. I have selected a few of my favorite pieces to share.

These are vintage Halloween noisemakers. Probably from the 40s or 50s. They are generally made of tin and were originally very inexpensive to buy. Most of mine are well loved with a little rust and wear. I have picked up a few of these over the years, and like to tuck them in here and there in my house to create a festive atmosphere. Of course, the orange and black cat noisemaker goes perfect with vintage glassware from my favorite team, the Oklahoma State University Cowboys! Go Pokes!

Vintage Wooden Mold

I picked up these acorns at Hobby Lobby a few years ago. They look great in this vintage wood mold with a fall candle. Mixing vintage and new items is especially easy and fun during Halloween! I use the mold year round and will add Christmas balls or spring/summer decor later in the year.

My house is a pumpkin palooza! They are so festive and fun. Glass, wire, ceramic, etc. I love them all. You can easily slip a pumpkin in here and there as a tribute to Halloween!

Finally, I picked this book up many years ago! I love the color, theme, and author! Look for items that may not be mainstream to add interest to your collection and home!

Hope you’ve enjoyed seeing some of my Halloween decor! I scour sales and auctions for Halloween items. You never know when you’re going to find just the right thing!
