Not So Spooky Halloween Decor

We’ve been getting in the Halloween spirit around here with some not-too-spooky décor.  I didn’t go crazy with a bunch of decorations this year, but I did add a few Halloween decorations to my front porch and entryway area.
Outside of the house, I added a few Halloween touches to the front door area.

I skipped carving pumpkins this year and instead opted for a faux jack-o-lantern bought a few years ago at Walmart.  It looks cute next to my newly painted red urns (although the mums are starting to look sad).

A cutesy spider hung from an outdoor light greets guests:

And a friendly skeleton (a 25 cent garage sale find) welcomes trick-or-treaters.

I also opted for a chalk doormat again (you can read about my first one here):

Inside of the house, visitors may be spooked by a ghost hanging from the ceiling.

Our entryway has a few Halloween touches too:

Like a creepy spider waiting by the doorknob:

A Halloween ready witch hanging from a coat hook:

And a sneaky skeleton on our console table:

Last year, I went a little cobweb crazy in our dining room and previous year the entryway table got cobwebbed.  How are you decorating for Halloween this year?
