Yes, it's still September and Halloween is over a month away but the Parks have started Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Parties, which means the decorations are up and I just love them.
If you follow me on Twitter you'll know that I've love all the seasons but I've been longing for crunchy leaves and chunky jumpers for a few weeks now, so I'm ready to embrace Autumn and Halloween.
I only decorate my own house for Halloween on the day. I know in other parts of the world decorations for Halloween are more like decorations for Christmas and go up weeks in advance but my neighbours would just think I was confused or really strange.
On this basis, I don't want to spend too much money on something that only comes out once a year although I found these lights on the Disney Store (US) website and I love them. Plus, I've just found a way to get them shipped to the UK - this is dangerous and certainly going to mean a lot of online shopping.
I especially like these because they look so friendly, having a small child, I don't want Halloween to be too scary.
Another favourite activity to Disneyfy (is that a word??) is pumpkin carving. There are lots of fab templates and stencils out there and I've tried a few. This one is definitely my favourite. This was last years effort. I also did Mickey and Minnie but they didn't turn out too well.
I also have a bit of a cheat which is a Jack Skellington tea light holder. It comes out every year (about 5 years now) and it so much less time, effort and mess than a pumpkin.
