About this
A short post from Between Naps on the Porch sharing a simply decorated Halloween front porch, published November 1, 2011. The only concrete decorating detail given is that the front door was covered with "creepy cloth" that had previously been used as a tablecloth in an earlier Halloween tablescape. The author notes Halloween is one of her favorite holidays and that she decorated the porch simply this year. The post body is cut off behind a "Read more" link, so the page delivers only a brief glimpse rather than full instructions.
Tips
- The "creepy cloth" draped over the front door was the very same cloth used as a tablecloth in an earlier Halloween tablescape, so it can serve double duty.
