Today was the “switch out” day.
I put away the Thanksgiving things and got out our Halloween things.
A month ago I decorated for Thanksgiving. Here is what the coffee table looked like then:
And here is what it looks like now:
I love trays.
They can make a display of items look so interesting.
This tray was a Goodwill find about 2 years ago. It cost me $7.99
I also adore displays of apothecary jars.
{I have seen so many wonderful ideas in blogland with apothecary jars.}
The two tall apothecary jars are from Walmart about 3 years ago.
The three smaller vases are from Dollarama.
This morning I hit Walmart really early to buy up a supply of rats,eyeballs, skulls and bones.
Yummy.
These gummy worms are the only edible in this collection.
I had to have at least one real treat.
The stickers are from the Martha Stewart Collection at Michaels.
The entry table looked like this earlier today:
And here it is now~
The ghost was a gift from a friend last year.
The martini bar as it looked earlier:
And now:
Just a collection of things I already had.
Displayed differently than last year.
The framed Halloween picture came from Homesense {Homegoods} 3 years ago.
The piano all ready for Thanksgiving~
And now ready for Halloween.
The tin house came from Homesense a few years ago.
The “BOO” and the pumpkin are from the grocery store about 4 years ago.
And finally the little table in the corner of the living room was changed out from this:
To this:
The “Spooky” candle holder was a Homesense find.
And new this year~ Mr. Owl.
Love him for his sparkle.
And one last shot before I head to bed for the night.
Thanks so much for letting me share my ‘project of the day’ with you.

I really like your glittery owl…it is really cute! The bats on the mirror are really fun too. I love all your great ideas!
Love all of it! Esp. your tray with jars… I have those dollarama vases! Thanks for the inspiration!
Lucky family you have – it must be so fun to live in your home with you switching up the seasonal decor. Those eyeballs are adorable!

You do an outstanding job with your vignettes – very impressive. It isn't easy to get the balance of objects in terms of height and colour, but yours look fantastic.
Everything looks fantastic! Your vignettes are beautiful. I especially like your "candy" buffet :). So cute. Thanks for linking up!
Love it, can't wait to see Christmas!
Ahhh everything is fantastic! I love the creepy "candy" display. Awesome! And your new sparkly owl…fab! Everything is fab! 🙂
O.M.G.!!! Ah-freaking-dorable!! Love it.

Love the white pitcher with sticks…very cool!
I had to do a double take when you said Thanksgiving to Halloween…you must be from Canada.
Thanks for sharing on Blog Party!

WOW!!! I love all of your Halloween decor! You've given me some inspiration with those apothecary jars and vases. You made your post very interesting by showing the "before and after's". I like it when I can relate to the timing of Thanksgiving and Halloween (Canada)!
Great job!
I love your Halloween decor. That owl is so cute. THanks for linking to We're Organized Wednesday.
I love the transition. I will be going the other way, bringing out the turkeys after Halloween. : )
You're place looks great.'
I love your jars with all the creepy goodies! I'm making a treat table for Ava's Halloween party and might just have to creep the little ones out with this idea!
Cheers!

My idea of decorating for Halloween is a bowl of candy on the little yellow stool by the front door! HA! I had a difficult time picking you out in the "Family Photo"! Too cute!
Thank you for an amuzing post!
Fondly,
Pat
You're all set for Halloween! I have some of those mice… wonder where I put them? Love the mirror over your piano!
