Hallowe'ens Past

From our Seattle days....
When we moved to the USA, I was quite taken by decorating for the different seasons/holidays.

Not something we did so much in Australia (except for Christmas!)

Do you notice the basket that was in also in my previous post? Is this going to be a trend??

Back home here in Australia, I don't decorate for Hallowe'en although the pumpkins make an appearance in my kitchen during Autumn and Winter.

In my classroom, I currently have a witch on a noticeboard. We are doing Fairy Tales at present.
The kids love her and always come up with their own stories of how she came to be in our classroom. She was a post Hallowe'en mark down in Joann or Michaels and has been a much loved purchase.

The other photos are of another Aussie expat's decorating for the Spooky Night.

Thanks for linking to my blog. Glad you enjoy reading it.

Funny Coincidences. I was passing costco when I read your blog, I was in Brisbane in the dust storm.
And I have a pile of quilts that "just need binding".
