Hollow's Eve

29 Oct 12


WithHalloween creeping upon us, I must show you the inspiration I found via Pinterest that has been keeping my spirits high all month for this holiday! How lovely are these whimsical gourds on display in the window?
Chevron has been huge this year as a pattern. It's a cutesy + contemporary twist to such a traditional fall decor item like a pumpkin!
Lastly, can you imagine how wonderful this candle surrounding by cinnamon sticks tied with twine must smell? The warming cinnamon sticks would warm up any home with the smell of autumn!
Wishing a wonderful + safe Halloween to all!
Salut, Yelle

    I'm not big into decorating for seasons/holidays, but I do have a single mini white pumpkin sitting on our front windowsill! Haha. That's about as creative as I get. I do like the cinnamon wrapped candles, that's so smart.

      I'm all about decorating for fall! It really makes it feel like the holidays for me. But a little white pumpkin sounds so cute!

    I seriously considered going chevron with my pumpkin this year (went another route)- but I'm definitely filing it for next year. Love the first image.

      I too wanted to do the chevron pumpkin, but the mint pumpkin I got was just too cute to paint over!

    Lovely inspiration, Yelle, I am so sad I can't find any little pumpkins in my hometown...

    Love the cinnamon sticks tied around the candles! I think I'll have to decorate my home with this for fall.

    cinnamon stick candle holders are the best! I made one as a craft in elementary school to give to my family for christmas and it STILL smells amazing each year!

    I love the painted pumpkins trend, if I had a front porch I would fill it up with those pumpkins, but on a third floor apartment no one would see them :(

    I just found your blog on BBN and I adore it! I've keep scrolling down and reading your posts! So much inspiration!

    Your newest follower!
