Halloween
It seems like more people are decorating for Halloween now than 50 years ago.
Do you decorate for Halloween? If you do - how much decorating do you do? A related question - how many people/countries celebrate/observe Halloween? (I do like some of the Halloween fabrics - I have some great ones in my stash - but that's about as far as I/we go with our "observance/decorating" for the day.) |
Used to decorate when had the little ones. Nowadays, I put a few streamers outside so the little trick-or-treaters will know to come by and I do some loot bags. That's all I do. No Halloween fabric in my stash.

Not much, although when my kids were little we set up a haunted “path” for tricker treaters a few years. Nowadays we are lucky if we get a dozen tricks treaters. I do have costumes for my dogs and last year we dressed them up and they helped us hand out candy.
ive thought about getting a Halloween pin for mt pin cushion, does that count? |
It was lots of fun when my boys were little. I don't anymore. My husband hates anything Halloween, except
for the little kids and he doesn't hate much or request much so I don't bother with it. To be honest I don't like Halloween colors. My sister said one of these days she's going to get the ugliest thing JAF has and give it to Paul lol |
I actually think it's less celebrated now than it used to be, even though the stores already have the Halloween merchandise out, 3 months in advance. I don't decorate. I did make a Halloween quilt once, but it was a donation.

I do quite a bit Halloween decorating. We have lots of trick or treaters (over 100) as we live in a newer subdivision. I keep the decorations more on the cute side rather than scary. Most of the trick or treaters are pretty young.

speaking of halloween won't be long if not already the halloween candy will be in the stores .......I don't decorate anymore all the halloween stuff i made through years just sit in the storage binn

I have a cute Halloween panel that I want to quilt for the fall. I don’t decorate much now that my children are grown. I am disappointed that the children no longer carry unicef boxes here. I used to get mine almost full every year and it gave me a good feeling to know the money collected would help others.

No, I don't decorate for Halloween. I don't make Halloween quilts, either. Nowadays the kids seem to go to the church Harvest Festivals, rather than door to door. It's safer.

I still decorate. I have a Halloween table runner and place pumpkins, leaves etc on that. I have two Halloween wall hangings that I use. I enjoy changing with the seasons, and love the fall. I have a fall wreath with a few Halloween things on it. For the day itself, we have a big lighted pumpkin we put outside, on the off chance we'll get a few trick-or-treaters. We live on a short, 3 block long, not very well lit street, that has a dead end, and is kind of hard to find! Plus, there are no youngsters in our neighborhood. Getting 10-12 kids is a lot for us!
