Halloween Decor

I put together my Halloween decorations this weekend!!! I wanted to do something that would be fun for my 2 year old son. He definitely enjoys the lights and colors. Hope you enjoy the photos too! :)



I made this banner out of beadboard and ghosts from a table runner I haven't used in a couple years.





I love the Frankenstein trim!!




I bought this banner from Target last year.


These are my son's favorites
