WHAT'S "SPOOKY CHIC?"


Well, you know it when you see it. Spooky Chic is goulish, but glamorous... Spooky Chic Halloween decor includes lots of sparkle and glitter -- and a good measure of humor!

Most often we look to deep hues of purple, orange and limey green to create a spooky chic scene, but you don't need to limit yourself. The picture at left shows a witchy Halloween vingnette we created on a credenza in my dining room. The elements are rather simple... OK the hat's not that simple - the hat is FANTASTIC! However, it's displayed quite simply on a tall lamp stand with the shade removed. (NOTE - DO NOT turn on the light - if I showed you the back of this hat right now you'd see a burn hole.) Next I added framed pictures of Halloweens past and posed an elegant Kathrine's Collection Baba Yaga Witch doll to complete the scene. You can find some of these gorgeous hats at my witch hat page http://moonstruckgiftshop.com/witchway.html. Have fun!
