The Right Balance

One decision I make every year when planning the Halloween set-up is if I want to focus more on creating an “old manor” feel to the place or to up the Halloween vibe with lights and decor. I usually opt to include an even balance between the two, which can definitely be tricky. When planning the graveyard, the thought of jack-o-lantern lights nearby somewhat ruins the “creepiness” factor for me. However, the thought that now goes through my mind is, why can’t this Manor be having a swinging Halloween soiree?
