Yup. I’m late. I am aware of Halloween being only two days away, but better late than never? I had the mantel ready to go and then I spotted this witch print. It had. to. be. mine.
I shopped around for the best price and purchased it at AllPosters. I used a 25% off coupon and waited ever-so-impatiently for it to arrive. Simple, creepy, bold. Exactly what I wanted.
The garland was a recent Michaels find. I contemplated making my own, but I like the idea of Michael making it. He’s so talented.
Another (old) Michaels purchase is this glittered witch on the floor. I wanted everything to compliment—but not compete with—the witch print. She’s the star of this show after all.
All the other items were just shopped from the house. Spray painting some branches from the backyard always add a spooky element to the mantel, and it’s free.
If you’d like to see some past mantels of mine (You’ll notice I like the black/white theme), click on the pictures below! Feel free to check out the progression of photo quality through the years too.

You are so much more festive than I am! I threw some pumpkins up with a fall wreath and called it a day. Maybe I can replace the pumpkins with turkeys for Thanksgiving lol

I love your mantle – so simple but so effective!
OMG that print is perfect for Halloween. What a unique thing to find. I love it:)
It’s GORGEOUS! That print is amazing…
Your Halloween mantels are the very best, I think. So yes, much better late than never!
I adore your mantle. I will do something like that for next year. (For sure!!!)
I love that print! Can’t imagine how or why it was taken… Was it a Halloween costume photo or something more spooky? The participants are so serious, too, that it makes it all the more creepy!
The print really makes it! Well worth the wait. I love the black and white theme. I did my mantel in black/white/silver, but no Halloween items since we don’t celebrate it. Can’t wait to decorate for Thanksgiving though!
That witch print is AMAZING!! I love it. Very well done. Have a great Halloween!
I love all the mantles. You are so creative.
Ooooh I’d love to have a witch print – it’s perfect! You did a great job with the whole mantel. I love black & white too and not just for Halloween.
Lobe that print! It is definitely the star of the show!
Really love all your Halloween mantels, clean and tidy, not all over the place or messy. The black and white is great. Happy Week
Well, you’ve done it again. I didn’t think you could improve your mantle over your other ones, but the Witches picture takes it to a new level . Also, the black and white theme is a winner with me too. Good job honey. Bet the kids love it! Mom
Omg! That witches print is over the top! I love it! Your kids and husband are blessed to have such a creative wife/mother in their life. I hope they realize how lucky they are. Thanks for sharing! You bring me inspiration every time I read your blog.
OMG! I love that witches print! Looks amazing:)
Beautiful!!
I really like your black/white theme. It is unique and not typical. I really like that witch picture…….I was wishing I had something different to hang over my fireplace this year but ended up with a fall wreath. I never would have thought there was a picture like that out there. I also especially like the tall branches painted black. I needed something inexpensive and tall in the same place but couldn’t think of anything. I also love your paper cut out banner. That looks like a fun project and it added so much to the scene. Good Job!
Je vous remercie. très intéressan
