I can&#8217;t even tell you why. I am in love with Halloween. I just keep thinking, &#8220;<em>Halloween is the eve to the true Holiday season. Yay<\/em>!&#8221; I love, love, love fall&#8230;and not just for the great coats&#8230;and boots&#8230;and gloves&#8230;and faux fur&#8230;and well, maybe that is a part of it. But I love the look and feel of autumn. I love when it blows outside and you have to stay inside. It&#8217;s just so romantic. Maybe that&#8217;s why I love this time of year so much &#8211; <em>it is romantic<\/em>. I always wanted an autumn wedding, but that&#8217;s another story entirely.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYv-SExo9I\/AAAAAAAABBc\/i_eH4cTA4fo\/s1600-h\/34299_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257442362051896274\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYv-SExo9I\/AAAAAAAABBc\/i_eH4cTA4fo\/s400\/34299_jpg.jpg\" style=\"cursor: hand; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;\" \/><\/a><br \/>So back to my love affair with Halloween. While decorating for the bewitching holiday, I discovered gold spray glitter&#8230;and well, it was just downhill from there. I spray glittered almost every Halloween decoration in my home. First I started with the pumpkins on my front porch. (p.s. These photos do not do the glitter justice in any form.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPVW0QIbeWI\/AAAAAAAABAk\/nrb4Eu8AzEo\/s1600-h\/Untitled-46.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257203595708430690\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPVW0QIbeWI\/AAAAAAAABAk\/nrb4Eu8AzEo\/s400\/Untitled-46.jpg\" style=\"cursor: hand; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;\" \/><\/a><br \/>Then I moved on to my wreath. Quickly followed by the large pumpkins on my pot rack in the kitchen, my witch&#8217;s cauldron, scented pinecones, and then every small pumpkin in every arrangement throughout my entire home, and then I unfortunately ran out of gold glitter spray. Otherwise my lifesize skeleton and vampire would have been sparkling from head to toe.<\/p>\n<p>As fabulous as gold spray glitter is perhaps skeleton bones look more real if they don&#8217;t sparkle. Then again, the same organic argument could be used for my pumpkins and wreath&#8230;hhhmmm&#8230;maybe I will glitter the skeleton. (Yes, I bought a skeleton and vampire this year&#8230;as well as a witch&#8217;s broom. I know. I know. But I told you &#8211; I am in love with Halloween this year.)<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYq2458CvI\/AAAAAAAABBE\/pTnJcWPIY-Y\/s1600-h\/Untitled-41.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257436737478331122\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYq2458CvI\/AAAAAAAABBE\/pTnJcWPIY-Y\/s400\/Untitled-41.jpg\" style=\"cursor: hand; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;\" \/><\/a><br \/>After the gold glitter spray would no longer spray, I quickly moved on to spiderwebs. Spiderwebs are all over my home now. My cleaning ladies are going to have a fit when they come on Friday. And then I emptied out every old sauce bottle in the back of my refrigerator and labeled them with fun scary potion labels. After that, I planned to go to Walmart and pick up another bottle of spray glitter. Lee thinks it&#8217;s lucky I have not yet had time to go to the store. Little does he know that when I do have time, I am going to stock up. Christmas is just around the corner!<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYqTY4E0pI\/AAAAAAAABA8\/gfT2Mt-jLSY\/s1600-h\/Untitled-35.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257436127585161874\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYqTY4E0pI\/AAAAAAAABA8\/gfT2Mt-jLSY\/s400\/Untitled-35.jpg\" style=\"cursor: hand; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYrlpX7lVI\/AAAAAAAABBU\/JvoYe-r2jQw\/s1600-h\/Untitled-31.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257437540763014482\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYrlpX7lVI\/AAAAAAAABBU\/JvoYe-r2jQw\/s400\/Untitled-31.jpg\" style=\"cursor: hand; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYrMLuMyxI\/AAAAAAAABBM\/yvDwSe6uy9E\/s1600-h\/Untitled-36.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257437103306623762\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_OxFi9LaSt_o\/SPYrMLuMyxI\/AAAAAAAABBM\/yvDwSe6uy9E\/s400\/Untitled-36.jpg\" style=\"cursor: hand; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am so into Halloween this year.
