Anne Marie's Halloween Home Tour

 

 

 

 

 

 Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!

 
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
 
 
 
ANNOUNCEMENT
 
I am now posting 3 times a week !!!
 
 I will be posting on TUESDAY, THURSDAY and SATURDAY
 
With the beginning of Fall, the HOLIDAY SEASON starts for me....
 
 
I consider the Holiday Season from September until after Easter as I decorate for all the Holidays and Seasons in between those months....

So I usually have a lot to share....


 As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....
 
 
Today, I have a special Treat for you.....
 
I will be sharing my dear friend Anne Marie's home decorated for Halloween....
 
 
In my last post, I shared my October Rudolph Day post, some new Christmas Buys and some Crafting that I have been doing along with a sneak peek of things to come!!

 

 

 

 


Click HERE if you missed that post.....

 
And now for a few Personal Notes...
 
 
Food of the Week
 
This week's Reheat and Eat Dinners from the WB Scranton Pens Food Service.....
 
 The 3 of us split 2 Chicken Parmesan with Cavatappi Pasta & Oven Roasted Broccoli 
 
 
And 1 Caribbean Jerk Chicken Thighs/Garlic & Herb Red Potatoes & Grilled Seasonal Vegetables
 
 
 
 We had enough for another dinner the next day.....


And now we will start Anne Marie's Halloween Home Tour for this year....

Anne Marie was kind enough to send me the pictures and the descriptions are her own words.....
 
  We will start at her front door.....
 
 Feather tree by the front door
 
 
 
 

 Skeleton sitting on the seat of the hall tree
 

 


 
 
 
The skeleton is looking at the cemetery book that both Debbie and I have
 

 
 
 
 
  His foot is resting on a pile of black books
 

Next to his other foot are a pair of Victorian black boots filled with fall flowers


 Antique “Franklin” typewriter on the “safe” table by the steps

 
 
The dome is on a table by the cellar-way.
 
 
 
  The two bears are on a small chair by one end of the sofa table.
 
 

Pictures are of the sofa table.
 
 



 
 The side by side.
 
 
 
 

On top, a funeral basket with two Halloween figures and two “boo” pumpkins.



The big pumpkin is vintage paper mache.









 This is on the tables between the pink chair and the side by side

 

 A witch book.
 
 

 The hat, that I love, that Debbie gifted me and a broom of course!



  More Bearington bears and another antique doll
 

 
 
 

 The organ
 
 
 Similar to last year
 
 
 
   The difference is I have four cats and a honeycomb base going across. 
 
Last year I only had two.
 
 
 
 
 
 
  

Organ with the lights on


 The wall unit.
 
 
 
 I did this with the cats this year
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
The big cat is scaredy ghoul cat and close ups of the nesting boxes next to him
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 These two masked girls and the cat are from Etsy.
 
 
 
 
 
 
  This is the crib Debbie gave me filled with pumpkins and a scaredy cat pillow
 
 
 
 
 


 
I also added the potion bottles Debbie gifted me here.
 
 
 Next to the wall unit....
 



 
 Antique bridal basket with felt pumpkins on my coffee table
 


The Dining Room

The China Hutch
 
 
 

 
 
Inside the Hutch
 
 







 I added the book Debbie gave me and I have another book of my own that I put on the other side



I added the skeleton key Debbie gave me on one knob and a bat to the other knob on the China hutch
 
 
  




Dining Room table
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 





I added the two pumpkin cups Debbie gifted me to my table.
 
 
 My haunted house set up on the buffet table in the Dining Room
 
 
  
The three big ghosts are from Grandin Road.
 
 
 I got them three years ago after the Season knowing I would do a ghost theme at some point!
 
 




Vintage Halloween costume
 
 
 
Viintage paper hat and butterfinger Halloween candy box from 1956.


These are on top of a chest next to the fireplace

 
The Mantle
 
 
 
All vintage
 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Steiff bat from 1950
  


 
  

Diecut cat from Germany, 2 vintage pumpkin nut cups (2 different styles)
 

 


Biestle diecuts from 20’s/30’s



Royal Bayreuth black cat creamer
  

 
3 vintage devil elfs




These are called skittles.
 

They are pieces from a vintage game


 I only have the cats but there’s a witch, pumpkin and an owl
  
With the lights on
  

 
 
 Cones on the fireplace screen
 


On top of the victrola
 

 I had to position the mirror Debbie gave me so the pumpkin could see his reflection

 
An antique apothecary jar on my kitchen counter filled with popcorn, a Halloween postcard and a spider!


Of course my favorite Halloweener!
 
 
 


Anne Marie and Tony's Sweet little pup, Autumn!!!

I hope you enjoyed seeing Anne Marie's beautiful home all decked out for Halloween!!

She does a magnificent job every year and it is because of her that I started to decorate for Halloween again after I gave away a lot of my decorations when my sons grew older....

Please take the time to comment to let Anne Marie know how much you appreciated her sharing her home with all of us.....

In my next post on SATURDAY, I will be sharing Minerva's new look for the upcoming Holidays.....



And Joe's trip to Pittsburgh.....


And a tour of a Historic Church that the PPG Paints Arena was built right next to.....


So I hope you will stop by to visit again on  SATURDAY.... 
 
 
 Stay safe, healthy and most of all, HAPPY!!

Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!
