Simple and Chic Halloween Style

Our family loves and appreciates each holiday!

Halloween is a holiday I've loved since I was a baby thanks to my grandpa the ultimate holiday lover!

When it comes to decorating our home I don't over do the decorations.

I like to keep it simple and chic!

The majority of the decor is from Target dollars spot over the years!

I hope you enjoy my take on Halloween home decor.

When I saw these black, grey and white pumpkins I knew exactly where they could go!

The floating shelf in the entrance of our home is where we display our wedding canvas! 

So these pumpkins just scream elegant to me so it compliments the space so well.


The second floating shelf in our living room is rather high up so the kids can't access it!
So I placed the items that would easily fall over if you tap them up here to avoid any accidents.

The center "P" wooden monogram I purchased from Michael's unfinished about three years ago for less than 50 cents! 


It is almost impossible to photograph this area with out tv glare!

The candle sticks lit up at night is the prettiest sight.

Family Costumes

Halloween is just a few days away and I am taking a look back at my favorite Family Costumes we have worn throughout the years.

It has always been so fun putting together our family costumes and I am a bit sad this year we aren't doing a family costume but have no fear I'll convince everyone next year!

In 2012 we attended our first Mickey's Halloween Party and we dressed up like Wendy, John and Nana! These costumes were so easy to put together I literally got everything accounted for in two days!


In 2015 we dressed up like Max, Alison, Dani and Thackery Binx from Hocus Pocus!
My oldest picked these costumes for us and it was by far my favorite! 
Cailee's Dani costume took me some time to put together but it was so worth it!
Find the tutorial for the Dani costume here
I promise it is easy just a little time consuming!



In 2016 Cailee wanted to dress up as The Chipettes from Alvin and the Chipmunks!
She didn't want just any chipette costume she wanted the outfits from the "single ladies" number they did in the movie. 
Putting together this costume was way more difficult for me because I had to sew the top wraps we wore. I had to research how to make these in the easiest way possible. I got it done and was so proud of the results and my little one was over the moon! Well worth the hours of frustration.



This year my girls made costumes easy for me Charlotte is dressing up as Tinkerbell and Cailee is dressing up as rainbow dash!

What should we dress up next year as?!
