Happy Halloween! My favorite day of the year has arrived. If you live in an area where trick-or-treaters visit, tonight is the night. Here are a few last minute ideas for this evening.To add a classic and autumnal touch to your front porch, float apples in a metal wash tub or bucket. Add some floating candles or tea lights in a rounded-bottom tea light holder that floats among the apples. This takes me back to the days of "bobbing for apples".
Add some dried corn stalks on each side of your door among your pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns. They give the area your candy-seeking visitors see most some added texture and height.
Play a Halloween sound effects CD or tape on a portable radio or iPod dock to make the approach to the door unnerving. Tuck a fog machine on a timer out of sight at one end of your porch. The low fog will creep along the floor. One final thing...stock up on the candy. You don't want to be the receiving end of a trick tonight!
