Welcome to the Designers Craft Connection Blog Hop for the month of October. This month's theme is Hallowed Homes {Decorating the home for Halloween}.
Living in Southern California, there isn't a big seasonal change in the weather so it is hard to think of Autumn festivities when it is 94 degrees outside. But thanks to this blog hop I threw myself into the Autumn decorating spirit so here is my Halloween cupboard reveal.
I began by covering the back of my antique cupboard with old atlas pages, dictionary pages and music sheets. I did this to give everything a lighter background.
On the top shelf I have my favorite vignette with an old antler and pharmacy bottle.
On the second shelf I have two portraits that I bought several years ago. These were some of the first lenticular haunted portraits I had ever seen. More closeup photos to follow. I also have my paper mache pumpkin displayed with some old laboratory bottles.
The bottom shelf has my glove molds, another laboratory bottle, skeleton keys, vintage plastic pumpkins and my black cat teapot.
Here are closer images of the haunted portraits. They "decompose" right before your eyes. They are the scariest part of my Halloween display.
I hope you enjoyed my Halloween inspired cupboard. Please continue forward or backwards through the blog hop using the blue DCC button on the right column. There are so many inspiring ideas from the many creative designers in this group.
Oh I love it! My favorite part is the black cats- those pictures are fabulous
