Creating a rustic Halloween porch is a piece of cake! Let me show you how you to transform your porch into an inviting display for the fall season.

It’s so awesome when your little one gets older, and then starts understanding what each of the different holidays is for. It’s just too cute seeing the recognition on their face when they finally can put two and two together!

    For instance, with Miss Ava, she knows that she gets to dress up really spookyyyy (as she says it) and wear crazy make-up OUTSIDE of our home.  I don’t care if she dresses up like a circus clown as we head out to our local supermarket, but I do put my foot down on letting her venture out into public looking like one of the natives on Avatar.

    But you know… that’s just me πŸ˜‰

    How to Create a Rustic Halloween Porch

    So, for this year, I decided to let Ava pick out whateverrrrrr she wanted to be for Halloween.

    A little bit of a risk, but I figured… how bad could it really be?

    Thankfully that little turkey was pretty mild in her choice, and decided to stick with her favorite character from the movie Hotel Transylvania.

    Nooooo… she’s not going as the “Toilet Paper Man” as she calls the mummy character. πŸ˜‰

    She’s going as Dracula’s daughter Mavis, or as he calls her, Mavey Wavey. Such a cute movie. You definitely need to rent it ASAP!

    Which brings me to Miss Ava’s favorite word of the holiday season. That’s right, you guessed it. It’s BOO!

    How cute this little guy turn out? And you know what I use to light him up? An Outdoor/Indoor Rechargeable LED Ball Light!

    Seriously. It’s the coolest thing ever! This particular one even has a remote that went with it, and it changes colors however which way you want it to.

    I’m just a tad bit obsessed. Plus, it’s rechargeable. Can you hear me swooning over here?

    Day 21 - Is the start of the sea life section of t Day 21 - Is the start of the sea life section of this amazing challenge! If you haven't noticed... I've been using a lot of warm tones as much as I can. I tend to be a very cold-natured person so during the winter months, I do my very best to think all things summer to get me through! Plus, doesn't this seahorse just look so warm and toasty in its environment?
    Day 19 - Stargazer Lilies. While I might love... t Day 19 - Stargazer Lilies. While I might love... truly love... all flowers, the stargazer lily has always held a very special place in my heart. How do I even explain? They're just a wonderful combination of tropical yet southern, but exotic yet familiar. Happy, playful, soothing, and fragrant. πŸ₯°
    Day 17 - Have you ever grown Sweet Pea Flowers? I Day 17 - Have you ever grown Sweet Pea Flowers? I have not, but after doing my research for this piece I'm tempted to try my hand at it this coming season. They are so pretty and come in such a lovely color palette!
    Day 15 - Bumblebees. I have countless videos of th Day 15 - Bumblebees. I have countless videos of these gorgeous insects buzzing around my azaleas in vibrant shades of magenta every spring. With that being said, I just couldn't resist capturing a similar illustration to remind me of those delectable and much warmer days.
    Day 13 - Today's challenge was a moth, and one of Day 13 - Today's challenge was a moth, and one of my favorites is the Luna Moth. Those lime greens always have me swooning! Now, if I only I could see one in person... that would definitely make my day! πŸ’š
    Day 11 - During the cold months of the year I like Day 11 - During the cold months of the year I like to think/dream about the beautiful creatures that decide to visit us once it gets warmer. We've had a lot of cold days this winter in NC (not super typical) so I figured the use of warm colors on these butterflies would be the most ideal fit! Hope you're staying warm and cozy ❀
