Black and White for Halloween

I like to use Black and white for Halloween without the addition of orange!! No surprise there! I have some fun black and white ideas in my files that I have collected that I thought you might enjoy seeing.
NO FABRIC SHADE (300x400)
What a fun idea!! No fabric on the lampshade and an addition of the silhouettes makes it perfect for Halloween.
CANDLES IN MOSS (300x300) (300x300)
Black candles in simple green moss.
BATS (300x333)
These would be fun going up your walk-way to greet guest!
CHANDELIER NAPKIN TIES (300x400)
Cute napkin holders.
FAMILY TREE (300x400) (300x400)
The Family tree out of felt or construction paper.
HAT (300x300) (300x300)
This would be great at the front door. Did you notice the thread and buttons on the chippy stool?
MOUSE AND CAT SILHOUETTE (300x400) (300x400)
A little addition of black trip and silhouettes of a cat and mouse chase and you have an instant decoration for Halloween.
OUTDOOR STEPS (300x300) (300x300)
Notice that this is a temporary addition to the steps so after Halloween is over you can take them off. How about a sign that says, “Enter if You DARE!!!”
PARTY (300x400) (300x400)
PILLOW (300x300) (300x300)
PUMPKIN (300x300) (300x300)
SCONCE (300x400) (300x400)
SCRAP BOOK PAPER BACKING (300x250) (300x250)
SILHOUETTE (300x400) (300x400)
untitled (300x250) (2) (300x250)
Get some Thrift store vases and paint flat black add a crow and Voila! It is a Halloween decoration!!
I lean more towards the fun or cute side of Halloween instead of the scary side. I even think some of these ideas can fall into the category of sophisticated. I thought it would be really cool to have a huge over-sized silhouette of a chandelier in the front window.
I hope this gives you all some fun and inspiring ideas for the up-coming Halloween celebrations.
