We are having a debate over here with pumpkin spice latte as it is that time of year! That said how do you feel about fall and/or Halloween décor? When can you start decorating for the season? What can be included and what should be off the table! Here goes! We know this could be controversial.
First pumpkins definitely fall into the fall (autumn) category. They are NOT just for carving at Halloween. One of us has a beautiful collection of glass pumpkins. They deserve to be displayed and yeah don't feel they are Halloween décor. So if you decorate for the season the consensus here is early September is when the fall décor should come out. That gives us at least two months to enjoy our treasures. Our pumpkins, wreathes, fall pillows, blankets and fall candles.
Closer to Halloween you can add fun stuff like bats and/or Halloween décor. Say around October 20th. Fall and/or Halloween décor rolls into November which we all know what comes after that. We are not talking about what comes after that right now. Just not ready for that. Back to fall.
Some people LOVE Halloween and want to decorate as soon as possible. Say October 1st - if that is your bag go for it. We just felt September was a tad too early for the bats to appear. But pumpkins! Put them out.
So what is your take on fall and/or Halloween décor? When is too early? Late? Mix it up? Let us know. This is all in fun. The main thing is you do you and love your home at every season.
