For those who like to shop early for Halloween decorations, these are from Grandin Road.

#1 So fun!

#8 Rug/Mat

#9 Fun Halloween Headbands

If you decorate for Halloween, do you have your Halloween decorating planned yet?

@Desert Lily Great ideas. I was looking for a project for the grandkids. #3 is perfect. Thank you!

I love the animal pumpkins! So cute and different, and probably not as scarey to the little kiddos that trick-or-treat. I only put out fall decorations instead of Halloween items.

What a great group of Halloween decorations!!!!!! I especially love the animal pumpkins! I couldn't choose just one decoration, want them all!!!!!

I am clearing out my summer decor and preparing for Fall/Halloween decorating. I am ready for Fall and eager to display my many decorations. I usually have everything down pat as to where it belongs, what tables, which rooms I have been downsizing a bit and try very hard not to add any more Fall decorations. We'll see!!!! Thanks for the great photos of some very appealing decor!

I do decorate for Halloween. Not quite as much inside as I used to inside. (I have many pumpkins/jack-o-lanterns and ceramic Halloween trees).

But outside, I do go a bit crazy and change it up every year. My entire neighborhood decorates for Halloween and most houses are pretty serious about thier displays. You will see everything from animatronics displays to blow-ups. One house down the street from me decorates the entire front to look like a pirate ship (the folks who live there dress as pirates), complete with fog cannons, and a lookout perch that they raise and lower to give candy to the kids.

This year I plan to put out an animated 6 foot Witch and an animated Grim Reaper on the porch along other decorations (lighted jack-o-lanterns etc). I did get some new orange and purple lights to string on the porch railing, a lighted "Happy Halloween" sign and "eyeball" lights that I will place in the large bush at the side of the porch. I live in a twin and my neighbors will put up orange lights that extend along both sides of the porch eves. (which I do appreciate, as I would have a hard time trying to do that). They always have great decorations for holidays so I am guessing they will have some fun stuff out on the lawn.

If I had a large house I would really get crazy. I love the 12 foot animated Skeleton that Home Depot sells (yep, one of the neighbors had one of these last year) and the new-this-year 12 foot flying Witch with broom. I am betting someone on the block is going to have one.

Can you tell I love Halloween?

Grandin Road always has the BEST Halloween decorations! I never saw a Southwest pumpkin before so I must check that out. Thanks for posting.

I have my Halloween decorations mostly planned. We always put up orange and purple lights on our front porch and my Halloween village in the bay window. Will work on the rest.

Grandin Road has so many different from pretty, strange, weird and everything in between.

I'm surprised how much I like all the different pumpkins!

And the headbands!

I love reading about everyone's neighborhoods.

We have a pretty good one around here.Lots of outside things covering the house and yards🕸

Halloween and Christmas are my favorite holidays!

Thanks for posting these @Desert Lily and the outside ones! Creeepy!👹👻

Some of the pumpkins are reminiscent of MacKenzie-Childs designs, and probably a lot less money.

I'm no longer adding themed holiday decorative objects but if I were, I think I' like to have almost all of these pumpkins. Just love fall and Halloween items.

Wish I had a Grandin Road budget! Haven't actually planned an outside Halloween layout, but there will be some seasonal stuff on our front porch. It's about 6x20 feet so it can hold quite a bit.

I promised myself that I wouldn't buy anymore Halloween decorations but I like the pumpkins in the first pic.

I bought this to wear to our church's trunk-or-treat that we participate in every year. It'll be just a touch of cute Halloween, and goes with my pumpkin-themed car decorations! It arrived really fast, and looks good on.

I especially like the pumpkins. I had a pumpkin on the porch one year that said "Boo , did I scare you"? Then the pumpkin laughed. One very little girl started to cry and the father told us we should not have it on the porch. Oh, well!

I just give my granddaughter a pumpkin, show her a picture, and she paints it perfectly. She did a Blue Willow pumpkin for me a couple of years ago to match my DR.
