    Default Guess how many handmade Halloween decorations are in my home?
    Here are a couple photos of some of my favorite Halloween quilts I've made! Some are crafty type of quilts.

    (It's my favorite holiday to decorate...just counted the other day b/c that is one of our trivia questions at our family Halloween party tomorrow night.)
    How many handmade Halloween decorations does Aunt Judi have in her home? answer... 97
    Mostly dolls (ghosts, Franks, pumpkins, witches, bats, dracula's and pillows)- I sold crafts throughout the US for 20 years - so that explains why I have so many... LOL
    Plus Halloween is my favorite time of the year to decorate - perhaps its the colors... Keep in mind - I have a big home... and a big family... the kids love it - I don't like that scary stuff - just the fun cute scary kind of stuff...
    Anyway just thought this would be something fun to share with everyone...

    Happy Halloween!

    What a beautiful collection! The handmade crafts mean so much more than the store bought ones. I decorated for years just like that, for the kids, and now they are gone and I have found other things to do instead of decorating for hubby and I. I do put a few things up but not nearly as many as I used to. Enjoy it all now while you can. You have some great ideas.

    Very cute. I have some halloween candles and don't always remember to set them out.
