The spooky season has arrived. so don't hold back the mischief in your holiday decor. Here are some ideas.
1. Haunted Hearth A mantel adorned with candlesticks and julep cups covered in fluorescent spray paint, adds a brooding dimension to a fireplace found only in the most stylish of haunted mansions.
2. Bewitching Bar Cart Thirsty for a wicked witch's brew? Roll out a chic bar cart that's gone through a mad makeover. A skull decanter is the perfect container for sinful spirits, while a vase holding eucalyptus leaves that have been spray-painted black, sets just the right tone for mischief.
3. Ghoulish Libations.
4. Eye-Catching Candy CornThis season, don't just eat candy corn, decorate with it! Candy corn stuck into foam spheres and placed in black urns create a playful look with an edge.
