Hello!
I wanted to share a little peak of what I have been working on.
I have been busy making some vintage inspired Halloween decorations.
I LOVE any excuse to decorate!
And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE decorating for holidays!
These are not just any decorations, because they are for my Halloween tree!
Yes, you read that right... It is like a Christmas tree, but with Halloween decorations.
I have a vintage looking silvery tinsel tree that I like to decorate for different holidays.
Don't you just love the combination of the black and white and orange with the old book pages and glitter?
I also love all of the different patterns of paper and the textures with all of the fun ribbons.
I didn't realize that I had dropped a bunch of black glitter on the ground. Then, Ella came over and was crawling around my feet for a bit before I noticed she was covered, head to toe, in black sparkly glitter!! Oh my. What a cutie pie. Good thing it was non-toxic!
Needless to say, she got a nice long bath after that, which, of course, she loved.
I can't wait to share my Halloween tree, and the rest of my Halloween decor!
Do you know anyone else who puts up a Halloween tree?

I always put up a Halloween tree. It's my favorite holiday for decorating.

I really love the vintage look of these. The muted colors very nice...not IN YOUR FACE. 🙂
Do you have a stack of old beat up books you take pages from?

Love your decorations! Love your site & blog! My Mom used to put up trees for several different Holidays -- I should definitely continue that tradition!

Those are great! I really love the one that ribbon/award one.
Do you decorate your tree for easter, too? Fun!

Love your decorations! I also have a small black tree that I decorate for halloween. I add a couple of new ornaments (Halloween) every year to my collection.

LOVE these Kristen!! You did an excellent job!
I use to have a little Halloween tree too, maybe I'll have to dig it out of the garage now. 🙂
Thanks for the wonderful inspiration and have a lovely weekend.

You've done a really splendid job on your decorations for your tree.. I can't wait to see it finished..
I have a small (about two feet tall) tree that I sprayed black and put purple lights on it.. It doesn't have any decorations though.. It sits on my mantel with one of my Jim Shore witches.. The witch has a small mirrow behind her.
I'll bet Ella looked cute all done up in black giltter.. What's a craft Mom to do ?
Have a happy weekend..
Hugs,

these decorations are stunning ( as usual, your a clever girl!). We spotted a Halloween Tree when we were on holiday in Alaska last year in a tiny wee coffe shop in the back of beyond . It was really fun but I think yours will have much more style. Can't wait to see it

I have a small black halloween tree and I would like to have a thanksgiving tree too. I love your craft project. Wish we all could live near each other, that way we can have craft days b

These are adorable! I've got one of those old silver tinsel trees from the 1960's. That must be what you use for a Halloween tree? I can't wait to see it! What a fun idea.

Cutest Halloween decor I've seen today. I can't wait to see your tree. That's so funny that you have a Halloween tree, but I can just see those adorable decorations on a tree.
