Its just a bunch of Hocus Pocus!

I absolutely LOVE decorating for the holidays. Every holiday has a space in my attic with organized plastic bins and labels. From Valentine's day to Easter and on through Christmas I make sure to have a unique display for each one. Halloween is no different!

I have a tried and true method for decorating a house during the holidays. It requires careful concentration and extreme organization. I call it: dump it on the floor!

Unpack the boxes and survey the damage!

What better way to see what you have and make decisions about where it will all go? Unpack all the boxes and survey the damage. I have been collecting seasonal decor since I was 18 years old. It's impossible to remember every piece and exactly where it lived in the house last year. Sometimes I buy a pumpkin at Goodwill in July and completely forget about it. The best way to get a handle of what I'm working with is to spread it out on the floor. From here I pick up each piece and place it in my home.

In reality, I prefer to be more organized than what you see in that picture. This year I took photos of all the rooms so I would have some direction in the future. 2017 was the first full year in our home so I was still figuring out how and when I would put out my fall/ Halloween/ Thanksgiving decorations. In 2018 I made some concrete decisions, took photo evidence and made notes!
