Halloween Mantel

I love reading blogs and I get such inspiration from the many blogs I follow.  One of my favorite is the mantel parties that are sponsored by Home Stories A2Z. She is currently having a Halloween Mantel Linky Party and I am excited to share my mantel with you.  I love the vintage Halloween look and my anchor is a poster by Will Moses called "Girls Night Out".  Everytime I use this picture in my decorating I smile.  This year I used some fall colored candles along with my vintage looking characters and come pumpkins and gourds in my Crate and Barrel cylinder that I purchased many years ago.  This cylinder makes a wonderful addition to any season just by changing out the filler. 



I also love Vintage inspired Halloween boxes and I have a collection of several from Rick Conant combined with some that my kids and I made many years ago after seeing them demonstrated on Martha Stewart.  I am so happy with how it turned out this year.  Hope you enjoy looking at them and hop on over to Home Stories A2Z for links to other Halloween mantels.

p.s.  I'm new to this whole blogging thing so please bear with me as I learn how to take and post pics and links.
