Decking the Halls, My Way
When the House Needs a Little Haunt
These are the spooky touches I use to bring Halloween to life at home—fun, festive, and just the right amount of creepy.
At my house, we watch The Nightmare Before Christmas multiple times throughout the spooky season, and this figure fit right into our family!
Nightmare Before Christmas Jack Skellington Figure
We couldn't have Jack and not also get Sally!! We like to pose them together at the dining room table, or at the top of the stairs, out anywhere else we can!
Nightmare Before Christmas Sally Posable Figure
Our collection would be incomplete without Zero! He's actually the tree topper on our Halloween tree!!
Nightmare Before Christmas Zero Hanging Figure
This is something we actually made! I believe the cauldron came from At Home, and everything else came from Michael's. Check the pin, I believe I've also pinned the video we found that inspired and guided us!

I love these cauldron mugs I got from Target last season. Sadly they don't have this same design anymore, but check out their current styles!
Trick or Treat Cauldron Mugs
The center of our Halloween decor is the Halloween tree! The number of tree decorations available at stores like Michael's, etc., has really expanded in the last few years. It's so fun!
Pre-Lit Black Fir Christmas Tree
Just like there have always been Christmas village sets, now there are HALLOWEEN village sets!! What a time to be alive! They even have the small figurines and other accoutrements that really paint the whole picture.
Haunted Village
Another piece to our haunted village, and this one is my favorite! The colors are awesome!! You guys gotta go to your local At Home and pick some up!
Haunted House
Picked this up this year, along with the matching skeleton man portrait. Great for his and her Halloween lovers!
Skeleton Woman Portrait
This pair of pale portraits was a must have for us! We may even leave them up year round!
Skeleton Man Portrait
One of my favorite Halloween door mats! They have so many good ones though, it was a difficult decision!
Skull Branch Wreath Coir Mat
Michaels has a TON of good ornaments and decorations for the Halloween tree! And they have such good deals!
Ghost Halloween Ornament Set
More Halloween tree decorations--these look AMAZING on a black tree!
Iridescent Halloween Ball Ornaments
Our favorite these last couple years has been the picks! Michaels has a great selection of picks that really help you take your tree decorations to the next level!

Don't sleep on Kirklands for your Halloween decorations! We love their pillows!

Decking the Halls, My Way
Because Christmas isn’t complete without a little extra magic—these are the pieces I use to deck the halls my way.
I have had the best luck with these C9 LED light strands. Using these and some lamp cord, you can design a custom solution to fit your space! Plus pick whichever bulb colors you want.
C9 LED Light Strand (100 foot)
If you want that fully custom look for your Christmas lights, pick up some bulk lamp cord, and cut to length your extension cords and jumper cables.
Landscape Lighting Cable (Bulk)
To complete that custom, professional look, these vampire plugs are a necessity. This is how you properly terminate your cut to length light runs, extension cords or jumper cords. Just make sure you get SPT-1 or SPT-2, based on the cable type you got...
Female and Male Vampire Plugs
I've always really liked the look of red and white bulbs, and by getting the bulbs individually, you can create your own color patterns... Think candy cane!
Red C9 LED Bulbs
Are you team cool white or warm white? I personally prefer the cool white, which reminds me of snow. They look great with the red!
Cool White C9 LED Bulbs
These are a MUST if you want to secure your bulbs to gutters or shingles! They will stay where you put them!
Christmas Light Hangers - Gutter & Shingle Clips (Black)
I used these to dress up my front door, which has an all metal frame. SO easy to set these up, and they look great!
Magnetic Christmas Light Clips
Can't forget the yard stakes! Do NOT buy any of the yard stakes on Amazon, these are the ones that LAST. So easy to use, and they hold the bulb sockets securely.
