Silhouettes by Jordan

Speaking of silhouettes...

I met Jordan Monsell, an extremely nice guy and incredibly talented artist, at Scare LA back in August and I absolutely love his work!

Keep updated with new silhouettes, events, and more when you "Like" his Facebook page, Silhouettes by Jordan

And don't forget to check out Silhouette's by Jordan on Etsy and purchase your favorites.

Here's one of the silhouettes I just couldn't resist!

While at Scare LA, my friend Angela (obsessed with the Scream series) spoke with Jordan and mentioned that Ghost Face would be an awesome silhouette to have. A little while later, I checked my Facebook updates on my phone. Being a fan of Jordan's Facebook page already, this happened to be the first thing I saw when I logged on:

Of course, Angela and I dashed back to Jordan's booth to purchase Ghost Face!

Halloween 2013 Decor

Had an amazing time putting up the decorations this year. It's many of the same decorations we have all seen on my Flickr and Blog before, but each year I try to mix it up a bit. 

Probably my favorite part of the decor was creating the bloody walls. I basically did the same thing I did last year for my windows. Contact paper, red acrylic paint, and a sponge brush to splash the paint is really all you need. 

Also bought some cute purple and orange lights for the dining room, which kind of brought the room to life!

Definitely enjoyed this year's decor. It was simplified in many ways compared to previous years, but I decided to go with my gut and just put things out that really popped in the room. Lets just say blood splatter was the perfect example.

Witch Lantern

Fell in love with this little lantern I bought at World Market (which I am still used to calling Cost Plus). They have such cool things for Halloween this year, only they don't seem to show it all on their website. You'll just have to take my word for it and head out to World Market!

If you'd like to make your own vellum lanterns, just follow Martha Stewart's instructions for hanging lanterns and table lanterns.
