About this

A Halloween home décor tour post in which blogger Linda shows off bat-themed decorating carried from her front porch into her living room and dining room, then links out to friends' décor ideas over a three-day blog tour. She shares her DIY bat project (made from a stencil and hung with Command strips), other pumpkin and chandelier décor, and a set of Halloween mason jar crafts. The post also lists the schedule of participating blogs on Oct 9, 10 and 11.

The plan

Blogger friends invited Linda to join a shared Halloween home décor tour and she signed up.
Once signed up she realized her existing décor was only a front porch with bats flying across the door.
To have enough to share, she moved the outdoor bat décor indoors for the tour.
Three days (Oct 9, 10 and 11) — The tour ran across three days with a set of blogs posting each day.
Readers are asked to visit and like all the participating blogs.
She linked back to her burlap wreath tutorial as part of the front door décor.
