A spooky front porch from Martha Stewart.









Another wonderful Halloween postcard.

A very cool Dennison die-cut 1920's.

Spooky Vintage Halloween Light Ups

These blown mold decorations are a great addition to a spooky front porch! Many were made by Empire in the 60's, 70's and 80's. They are easy to find on ebay and etsy. They are being reproduced but I prefer the vintage ones.
