I have a sneaking suspicion that as time goes on, it will become considerably more universal. Though it wasn't observed much in Italy when Tony was growing up there, he says it's gained in popularity there in recent years, too. I'm just like you - no spiders (unless they're fake, tiny, and super cute!) either. Real or fake, the big guys are not my cup of tea at all! <br /><br />Happy decorating and start of the witching season! :)<br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-33011663283903714422013-10-12T03:37:18.801-07:002013-10-12T03:37:18.801-07:00What a lovely post.

We simply needed some fun in the middle of autumn, so we made our decorations ourselves, and I still have it all, so nice. I especially love the orange pumpkins, skulls, skeletons, bats, witches, but not the spiders, ough! I will decorate tomorrow and can hardly wait. Most Danes think it is a silly American tradition, but I love it. Also because it is so different from all other holiday traditions. Happy Halloween to you, dear. :)SANNEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973437247117000140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-30454810068343211802013-10-08T13:54:47.722-07:002013-10-08T13:54:47.722-07:00I grew up watching the show Home Improvement with ...I grew up watching the show Home Improvement with the fam, it was Dad's favorite show, and between Tim's annual war of the Christmas decorating contest with the doctor on the block and the hilarious spooky episodes where Brad, Randy, and Mark always were scared by their old man was perfect!<br /><br />We have never decorated for Halloween, or really any other holiday other than Christmas and even that was minimal, but the couple across the street have a spectacular theme for their house every year. Unfortunately one of the guys was in a horrible car accident and now they are unable to decorate as outlandish as they once did. I miss it. :-(seannaapprovedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09546047220109216505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-51116871142517636182013-10-08T02:56:12.515-07:002013-10-08T02:56:12.515-07:00Wonderful inspiration, sweet Jessica!

I'm starting to prepare my home this Halloween with great enthusiasm, as you know, this party is not very popular here in Spain, but I am determined to bring it to my family and neighbors and enjoy wonderful pumpkin pie, sweet chocolate and fun Halloween decoration this year. Yes! I too am excited about that!

Sad as I am to see Halloween come and go again on the morn of November 1st, I swear, I'm already thinking ahead to the next Halloween.

I'm always looking for new Halloween-themed films and activities and you've left me feeling so inspired. <br />I adore Halloween, and I always wish it were more widely celebrated in Australia. I imagine that if I lived in Canada or the U.S I'd be one of those people who goes totally overboard with decorations, costumes and sweet treats. As it is, I usually decorate my loungeroom, watch some scary films and hold a costume party for my family and friends.Vanessahttp://www.nessbow.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-85802425178658959152013-10-06T22:53:11.219-07:002013-10-06T22:53:11.219-07:00Oh I love love Halloween!

Until recently it just wasn't a thing here in Australia - but a few years ago we started getting trick or treaters and now my girls are obsessed with it. They put so much effort into making their costumes each year. It just seems so bizarre to me as it was something I only ever saw in movies/tv. <br /><br />Now all I want to do is watch home improvement LOL.
