SPOOKTASTIC!

Halloween is the time of year where everyone embraces the the darker side of life and set out to create their own macabre manors. I say, why hang a witch on the door once a year when you can add a little bit of witch to your decor? You don't have to be a Goth or a Vampire to frolic with the musty chic of unsettling decor. Add some taxidermy, a gilded skull, a Victorian portrait, a medical print, or a vase of white Calla Lilies and Voila! You are on your way to adding a little unrest to your nest. There are many wonderful examples that range from subtle to downright kitsch. In celebration of this wicked season, let's remember to inject a little bit of subversive humor into our surroundings and have a little fun.
