    My grandsons would adore this mantle. It creeps me out, even the fake ones. LOL I could do this if they were cute colors with goofy eyes and mouths. haha But I gotta say, this is the BEST Halloween mantle I have ever seen.

    So loved seeing you this past weekend. What a hoot you are!

    Your mantel is great with your jars and cloches. The sticks/branches really make it pop.
