Halloween Black and White Shelves
I realize we aren’t even in October yet,
but have you seen all the decoration goodies in the stores?
I just couldn’t resist. 🙂
and this is how it turned out.
For this spooky display,
I brought together a mixture of things around the house
with a few things I picked up on sale.
I found the Happy Halloween banner at HomeGoods.
It just opened in my town and I am in love!
I having a sneaky feeling we are going to be great friends. 🙂
The haunted house I found at the Dollar Store.
I love the depth and 3-D look this black cut out brings to the whole display.
I grabbed the candles from a cabinet and just wrapped them
with some spiderweb scrap paper.
My white pumpkin got a little bling thanks to Michaels 40% off sale. 🙂
Aren’t my bats the coolest?!
I found these at Michael’s too.
Although they weren’t on sale, I had a coupon for 40% off.
My owl silhouettes were a find at the Dollar Store.
I just grabbed a willow branch from my bedroom and
glued a few owls to their new home.
For the picture frame, I removed the back and
placed my Martha Stewart spider web clings from last year
on to the glass to sneak in a little creepy spider.
Every Halloween display needs a spider, don’t you agree?
And of course, the large white pumpkin had to be bling-ified too.
(Yes, I just made that word up.)

To complete the look, I added to both shelves some dried Spanish moss
from last years Pumpkin topiary.
This is how my shelves look with my patio curtains in place.
I love the shadow play that happens with the bats and the haunted house.
So cool, oh and of course– a little spooky. 🙂

For fun,
I took a little crazy photo.
This whole spooky look came together for less than $13 bucks.
A great look for a super great price!
And you know what?
I’m actually glad I put it up a little early this year
because now I get to enjoy it even longer! 🙂

Love it!!! I’m a sucker for black and white Halloween decor 🙂 Those 3-D bats are way fun too! Stopping by from the Shabby Nest link party!
Love this! I’ve been holding off on getting my Halloween decor out, and I usually don’t even do a Halloween mantel, but I’m thinking I might have to try something this year. 🙂
Loving the black and white! I especially love the bats. I think that I need to hit up my Michael’s. Thanks for the inspiration!

Fantastic mantel! My weekly linky party–One Creative Weekend–has gone spooky this week in honor of my thirteenth party. If you haven’t already, I hope you’ll visit “One Creative Weekend” on OneCreativeMommy.com (open every Fri-Wed) and link up this idea and anything else you’d like to share. (You can include non-Halloween posts as well, but feel free to link up as many Halloween-themed posts as you like.) There are two categories—one for Halloween and one for everything else.
This looks fantastic. I really like the spiderweb frame. If you get a chance I would love for you to come link up to my Halloween Edition Pin Party.

First of all…I just love the shelves! But I really like the idea of adding scrapbook paper to change up the candles. Love the house…everyone else seems to have better luck than me at the dollar store. Oh well…your bats rock and the whole display is awesome!

Found this through Pinterest! I love the white/black colors you kept and you did an amazing job on it! Will you do it again this year or change it up?
You did an amazing job for $ 13!! I cant wait to try and recreate next year but I know it wont be this cute! Thanks for sharing pictures and giving all the details on each item! It really helps us creatively-challenged people decorate!
I love you idea of using black and white to decorate for Halloween. Pinning this and using it next year. Thanks!
That’s a great color combination for Halloween. I love the white pumkins and that spider web picture frame is a great idea. Thanks for sharing with us at the #homeMattersParty link party.
Your black and white Halloween decor looks fabulous with lots of fun elements. Thanks for sharing at Snickerdoodle. I’ll be featuring this at tomorrow’s party. Hope to see you there!
Creepy cool! Love the bats on the wall. I tend to stick with more cutesy pumpkins so I enjoy seeing others spooky setup! Visiting from Inspiration Galore party.
