Decorating for Halloween

Meows from Mudpie!

Last week on our Etsy post I mentioned that Mommy had begun decorating for Halloween. She's found some really cool things this year and we thought you might like to take a look at some of our favorite cat-related pieces (because of course that's all she buys!)

Our Truffles memorial table contains a pair of Day of the Dead figurines, mugs from HomeGoods and Christmas Tree Shop, Yankee Candle's Sophia Fishtini Tea Light Candle Holder, and an Annalee cat we've had for several years.


We were up *way* past midnight to order the Boney Bunch Cat Nap Cat Lady from Yankee Candle on the night it was released...


Speaking of cat lady figurines, we also got the new Former Cat Lady from the Lemax Spooky Town collection...


A pair of black cat signs from AC Moore...


Cat in a witch's boot from TJ Maxx and Black Cat's Hiss bottle from Michaels...


Another mug from HomeGoods...


Shirts from Walmart...


And for the little girls room, Purrfect Pumpkin body cream from Bath & Body Works.


One new item this year Mommy hasn't bought that she adores but it's way too expensive is the Black Cat Shack from Department 56. It's probably going on her Christmas list :) 


Do you like to decorate for Halloween? Do you have any favorite pieces?

No tasty whole chickens?!?! What says Halloween more than tasty whole chick ... uh oh. Wrong holiday. Sorry. This stuff is cool though! Maybe not cooler than tasty whole chickens ... but then, not much is, except for a certain tortie who shall remain anonymous :) ~Bear Cat

We love to decorate for Halloween. In fact, we would be decorated already if it wasn't for nasty Mr. Matthew. Mom has 2 of those shirts from Walmart! She didn't see the green one at our store or she would have gotten that too!

Wow, what great decorations for Halloween. The black cats are terrific and we love the one of Granny. You sure look ready for Halloween.

Oh my goodness, your house must look beyond pawesome with all of these decorations! We, too, love to decorate for Halloween. We have been decorating on and off since the beginning of October. We like to savor it, and we have so many things to put up that it takes more than one sitting. Some of our favorite decorations are of course black cat pieces, a lot of them simply from garage sales. We really love your decorations, Mudpie and Melissa! Purrfectly spooktacular!

We love your cat decorations for Halloween. Mom actually put up her pumpkins -- she really lost the desire to decorate for anything after losing Abby. Maybe this year Christmas might be a bit more festive. WE'll see if we can inspire her.

I LOVE Halloween and everything in this post. I want that Dept. 56 house now. I got the former cat lady from Michael's too :)

Except for last year when Pop’s back was really barking, he decorates every year. Unfortunately we don’t got no money anymore to buy new decorations and TW says at their age, they should be downsizing anyway.

Mom has two or three Halloween pieces for decorating. She often forgets to put them out. With eight of us, decorative items often become casualties of cat play and aggression. But she sure enjoys seeing all the cool things Mom Melissa has. She thinks that Dept. 56 item is a must have! XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Nice! Everything is almost final for the Halloweens party. I have picked up one of the best San Francisco venues and have invited all my friends and relatives. I am extremely happy to find this post as it will become easy for me to decorate the place with this.
