Just here revisiting today. Always resets my focus into a joyful place. Doesn’t it seem like a whole world away but also just yesterday. Our kids grow up but this is where we’re from. ☺️
We are a witches family - we decorate with witches, even my 84 year old mother, daughter and grand daughter - we all dress up as witches. In my daughter's neighborhood they close up all the streets to cars and everybody dresses up, even those who stay to give out candy. Her neighbors set up haunted houses, project scary movies on their walls, and set up photo booths on their front lawns! This year may be different - but I'm sure her neighbors will still go out. Have a safe and happy Halloween.
Are you a real witch? I love being pagan and do rituals for humanity n all living beings and yes fall is my season to dress up in my real witch 🧙🏽♀️ outfits ppl say love your costume how authentic it looks 😂I just know it’s not a costume!
Wow that is fantastic. I used to go huge at Halloween. Then the high school started planning football games on that date, so very few show up now. Destroyed Halloween.
Re: Spider's Web--When your kids come home and say THEY LOVE IT! It's a keeper ( at least for this year! lol) You are making wonderful memories for them. The porch looks great. Would love to see Day of the Dead.
love that you are in an older home! we have a 1906 Victorian (edwardian?) folk style house in my hometown. the lady who lived here before us was the queen of Halloween! trying to live up to her legacy!
I'm into witches and have been for a few yrs. Last yr I had an altar with potion bottles and spell book (I DIY'd all of it) I had painted baby doll parts hanging from the ceiling of my porch. In my yard I made a circle of ghosts that lit up on one side of yard and on other side I had a diy cemetery and a witch standing over a cauldron stirring. I had 2 cages hanging with skeletons in them. It was awesome. Lots of people would slow down or pull over to check it out.
I personally love that spider web and if it makes your kids happy then even better! I just found your channel during this fall season and I'm so glad I did. Your decorating videos are so my style. 🖤
What a fun addition to not only your own home, but the neighborhood as well. Your decorating style is ever evolving which keeps the looks fresh and fun. I especially like the way you give both yourself and your viewers grace by not being determined to stick to a plan if it is not working out. In fact, from what I can tell, many times you do not really have a real plan, but just jump in and see what looks good to you. Thanks for sharing your creativity and love for all things fun. Your love for your kiddos and your desire to make lasting memories for them just comes shining through. I am fairly new to your channel, and I am enjoying going back and seeing what you have done in the past. I am a retired elementary teacher which some disabilities that limit what I can do. In addition, my kids are all grown with families of their own, so decorating on a large scale is no longer possible. I do still really enjoy seeing what others are doing.
Wow!! Lauren!! It is fabulous!! That giant skeleton is like WOW!!! I love the entire porch! You are an amazing decorator!! Such a fun porch!! Love it!! Your house is gorgeous!! Love all the details!! Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day!
I just came across your video and can't wait to check out your channel. The porch looks fabulous! It's cohesive, classy yet hauntingly festive. As a Halloween baby, our property is very nicely decorated. I choose to stay with a supernatural theme and not include gory images. The little details, such as the skeleton hand coming out of the cauldron, add so much realism to the decor. My front porch is typically decorated with bats hanging from the portico ceiling, a four-tiered garland with metal jack-o-lanterns, and a very frightening witch wreath greeting visitors. My husband is setting up Skelly this year for the very first time. I love how your Skelly is leaning on a massive urn. You may want to consider having a few sinister creatures coming out of the urn and on its sides.
This year I will be using animal skeletons...lights, and orange ribbons! We live out in the Arizona desert. I like the spider web, and I am sure your kids did too. Your yard is awesome!
😂oh Lauren your table scape was just bewitching🥰😍I loved using the out side branches it makes everything look more authentic. That skeleton looks awesome. We have someone who has one and I love to look at it when we pass by😬you have some great ideas and I know your kids love it. I do👏👏👏🎃🙀👻
Excellant job decorating the front porch! Love love love the spider web!!! The 12 foot skeleton is amazing!! Yes please on decorating the day of the dead!
I’m definatly saving this video to get ideas next year. Love the witch area and the skeleton and the black flame and Salem pillows are a nice touch to the dead and breakfast sign
Love, Love your decorating videos! ! You are so good at what you do! I love Halloween its my favorite holiday and please leave the big spider web it looks awesome! !
I love to do witch theme. It's my favorite theme for the house. I love Hocus Pocus! I'm also really into vampire stuff and the old school monsters like Frankenstein and Werewolves. I got a bunch of witchy stuff and a really cool skull cookie jar from the At Home Store this year. 🎃😄 Decorating in September!!!
Wow girl you really did a wonderful job decorating your porch for Halloween. Your kids must love this. I like the giant spider web and the witches hats and that 12 foot skeleton is amazing. Great job.
I love the giant spiderweb! I actually do the same motif on my front porch and my giant spiderweb is the focal point! I add the white pain in the butt pull apart webbing and it tones it down some and makes it more realistic! Try that and you might like it better
Everything looks Amazing!! I was thinking I bet dry ice would look really cool in that fountain on Halloween with smoke rolling out of it like a caldron lol
I take the large skeletons and attach them to my side gutters like they are climbing up the house! I have a corner house ,it really gets Cars driving by slow checking it out.
Wow!! that skeleton is the best thing I have ever seen!! I bought a 5ft one this year and my little boy is scared of it so I have had to hide him behind a bush in the garden. I would love to have my house smelling of cinnamon but we have stupid wasps in the UK still in October that would just be attracted to the smell sadly. I also have a severe allergy to them so have to be extra careful! Great decorating so glad I found your channel.xx
Lauren you're killing me with those hilarious skeltons!!! Then at the end the one in the rocking chair has it's mouth hanging open!! Hahahaa so dog gone funny!! 😂
Love your porch decor! The spider web looks great! Fun for your kids! That skeleton is awesome! I'm really glad I found your video. Your home is gorgeous.
I like the witch hats, brooms and real pumpkins. I would take away the skulls, spiders, bats and most signs with words. I like the orange accent of the pillows, but would rather have plain orange accent pillows to decorated pillows. After taking away lots of decor, I would add some up lights for drama.
You are so creative! I am so glad that I found your channel I love your whole Halloween theme! The witches hats hanging on your porch are awesome! I would definitely steal that idea if I had a front porch. Love the spider web, especially if your kids love it. After all that is the fun of it🎃
I’d also like to see the brooms floating in mid air hun but wires like the witches hat.....so it looks like the witched jumped off her broom and her hat stayed behind....I love the spider wed...and most importantly your kids love it....I would leave it...it’s great
Omg yes!!! i would love to see a decorate for the day of the dead.. my mother passed away 10 years ago and sadly my father passed away in September due to Covid i need inspiration because my alter is going to be bigger this year 😔 thank you!
Elizabeth! I am so sorry! I wish we could celebrate together! I will be sharing our celebration with you and hopefully we can be closer to our loved ones this year. XOXO
@@LaurenNicholsen Aww Lauren... you are an amazing person 😥 thank you... so much! I would love that.. in spirit we will celebrate together, next to our love one's that left us to soon... that one day we will see again ❤ thank you for being you!!
Oh my gosh that Halloween skeleton is perfect for your yard. That looks absolutely fantastic. I know this is from last year but it never gets old. Love the witches hats flying so creative🍁🍂🧌🧙🏼🎃😻
Loved the end result. Halloween is not as big here in Australia but my little monsters love it. That 12ft skeleton is insane , looks great in front of your big house. Keep the giant spiderweb perfect spot for it there, looks great with the white verandah.
