Halloween Vignette {Halloween Decorating}
I’ve had the black spiders for a few years now. The battery-operated tea lights are new. They were originally orange, but I fixed that with a little acrylic paint.
I made the glittery BOO sign, and later this week I’ll show you how I made it. Get. Excited.
When I spotted the bats at Target I knew had to get them and somehow use them in the vignette. I orginally planned on hanging them from the ceiling with fishing line, but I decided that I didn’t want to have to deal with rigging them I’d hang them on the mirror with zip ties instead.
You want to see what it looks like at night with the black light glowing, don’t you?
Super spooky, right?
Here’s the rundown of where I got everything in the vignette.
lamp: Bed Bath & Beyond
lampshade: Kohls
feather boas for lampshade: JoAnn Fabric ($8*)
black light: Walmart
purple boa: Hobby Lobby
owl: Target ($2.50)
spiders: Kohls?
tealights: JoAnn Fabric ($4*)
BOO sign: handmade ($14.50*)
pedestal stand: Goodwill
short purple pumpkin: Hobby Lobby
tall purple pumpkin: Target ($2.50)
bats: Target ($3)
* I used coupons
Are you decorating for Halloween this year?
Do you go with a theme of sorts?
What are your thoughts on the Target dollar spot?
I’m sharing this at the following parties: Home Stories A to Z, Tatertots and Jello, House of Hepworths, The Shabby Creek Cottage, Tidy Mom, Liz Marie Blog, Craftomaniac, The Shabby Nest, Positively Splendid, Whipperberry, Funky Junk Interiors, Classy Clutter, Today’s Creative Blog, Uncommon Designs Live Laugh Rowe, Thrifty Decor Chick, and Serenity Now.Â
I used the Target Dollar spot to decorate my fall mantle. The Dollar Spot at Target and the Dollar Tree are my go-to places for holiday decor. You can check out my mantle here:

I can’t believe you used the same items as last year. Tacky….
I wanted to just leave that but then people would think I was some internet troll. Sad, this world that we live in. I really like the purple vs. orange for Halloween. You could make this big.
Ok, seriously, come decorate my house now. K thanks. 🙂
LOOOOOOOOOOVE that!! I am not typically a fan of “Halloween” decor but I seriously love that!
That is so cute! I love your BOO letters…I just made some the other day too. But, I love how sparkly yours are, and that lamp shade rocks! The target dollar spot is addicting to me. I feel like stores in my area all have a lot of different items too. 🙂 I love your owl too. Megan
cute! love the letters.
The purple and black is super snazzy! I love the change of pace from all the orange. And I wasn’t around last year, so it counts as being brand new to me!

This is seriously so cute! I love the black and the purple and the glitter! The bats around the mirror are the perfect touch!
I really dig the purple and black instead of the typical orange. Pretty!
I love the feather boa lamp! I really don’t decorate for holidays/season (except a little for Christmas, of course) but I wish I did sometimes when I see decorations like this! It looks wonderful! 🙂
I love this! Now all I need is somewhere in my small house to decorate…you’ve inspired me to make it happen! 😉
Super cute! I got a few cute signs from Target’s dollar spot a week or so ago but I’ve yet to hang them anywhere. I’m super slacking on my Halloween decor this year haha
This is awesome! Especially love the lamp. Makes me want to get decorating for the holidays.
I love the idea of using purple and black! It looks fabulous- well done!
Adorable! I love it
This turned put so well. I usually don’t do a whole lot for Halloween, but I love your set up. And the purple.
Cher/Bob Mackie-esque!!!
I love it, this looks fabulous!
Love the black and purple together and the way it “glows” with the lights off! Fun, grown up Halloween decor! Kathy Penney @ Pinner Takes All
Ha! I bought those bats too. But just two of them. I’m trying to find something green to add to my mantle before I can have the grand reveal.
Really loving that lampshade!!!
awesome job putting it all together love it
The black and purple together look awesome! My favorite are the black glitter letters, who doesn’t love glitter. If you get a chance I would love for you to come link up at my Hallween Edition Pin Party. It’s open all month.
