Spooky Nesting with PartyLite

Fall is a time of bringing our bodies and our thoughts inside, so naturally I want to make our indoor living spaces cozy and festive for the season.

Soren and I spent some time making decorations and pulling out the ones from the attic.  It was a nice way to spend an afternoon with my preschooler.

He absolutely LOVES Halloween (and asks when it's coming all year long) so he enjoyed cutting out paper jack-o-lanterns for the windows (I'm not so good at taking full window shots that aren't washed out, so no sadly I have no pics of them).  I had fun cutting out some construction paper masks to put on our family portrait.

We've added pumpkins

and Indian corn

and general Halloween decor.

Our favorite decorations are ones that bring light into the darkening evenings, and we've recently added a creepy-cool Spooky Eyes Hurricane candle from PartyLite.

It is such a whimsical design, with glowing eyes flickering from the three tea light candles that fit inside on the tea light tree, which is sold separately.  You could also put a pillar candle inside the hurricane.

I was sent a set of lime green and purple tea lights, Hocus Pocus and Abracadabra scents, which have a mysterious and woodsy scent.

I'm eager to display the Spooky Eyes Hurricane throughout the month and most especially on Halloween.  I'm sure the trick-or-treaters will get a scare out of it.  It will definitely be a decoration that we look forward to putting out in years to come.

During October, PartyLite is giving away candles and gift certificates to their Facebook fans in their Glow for a Cause promotion that raises funds for the American Cancer Society.
