I am not a huge fan of decorating for Halloween. Something about spiders and other creepy creatures just doesn't give the house that homey feel I'm going for. So, for my birthday I spent a chunk of time doing what? Decorating for Halloween! And fall.
Several years ago I came up with the idea of decorating the entry as The Bat Cave since a lot of my family like to claim that they are Batman.
The "real" Bat Cave entrance is hidden but I wasn't going for "real" and I just think it's funny, kind of like in
Megamind when Minion puts a welcome mat at the entrance of the secret lair so that he can find it. I figure we spend our time in the "Batcave" getting ready to go out and fight evil or stand for the right.
The inside of the door is also decorated. I rather enjoy the times that my boys have given a hearty "To the rescue!" as they go out the door.
Then there are the bats. They are toasting over the fireplace -- hopefully not melting.
