Halloween nostalgia


A Halloween greeting from yesteryear. I want to walk along that path with only the jack-o-lanterns to light my way. Heaven.










I want to jump into this picture and live in that house. If only...


Vintage Halloween collage...I actually smiled when I saw this.


I gotta' learn how to make this. Beautiful.



Another must-have for Halloween....spooky candles and cookies!









You can't have Halloween without Linus and the Great Pumpkin!!!











Love that moon!!






I want this red dress for a costume. And...is that an "owl hat"??









































In addition to my usual interests, I also have a love of antiques. Naturally, this includes antiques of the Halloween variety. I did a search for "vintage Halloween" and found some really cool stuff. Somehow, a lot of vintage Halloween decorations seem to capture the feel of the holiday for me more so than many modern-day ones do. I'm not quite sure why that is. There is just something about the thought of Halloweens of yesteryear that really appeals to me. I don't actually have any vintage Halloween decorations or anything, but I wouldn't mind starting to collect some.
