mixed up

I'm mixed up.  Heart says its Fall/Harvest time, outside says its spring.  House says its Fall/Harvest time, blog says its spring.  Don't worry-we just have the best of both worlds I guess. Holla!  Yes, I have done it.  It's not even October yet and I've done it.  Decorating for Halloween = finished.  It was actually a realy fast process thanks to our newly-wed sized abode.  I'm not complaining!  Have you ever shopped for Halloween decor/items in Australia?  Prices are crazy mister!  But I didn't let that stop me.

Of course, we have lovely Mom to thank for some of our holiday spirit.  Thank you dollar tree and USPS!  We recieved a spooky package and you'd better believe that we decorated that night.

Here is our Halloween-ified bookshelf.  Not over the top, but the orange definitely stands out and gives it an October feel.  The second pic is a zoomed shot of the candle near the top of the bookshelf.  Dollar tree container + black candle = easy decor.

Our ghost banner was a tricky one. It was hard to find a place for it, but we made it work.  I like the texture it gives the wall.  And also, our lovely pumpkins (yes, that is the Amazing Race).  Three is the perfect decorating number. 

Maybe our decorating is low budget, but we still love it and gives us the Halloween feel.  My favorite of all are my TP Pumpkins though!

They are so simple and cheap!  I got the idea from this blog.  Easy Peasy!

I put them just about everywhere in our flat.

Ha-and because they're toilet paper, they work in the bathroom too! Woot!

I made five total, although I probably would've made heaps if there was room in the house!  They turned out perfect. Voila!

(I love my orange fattie)
