Wonderful English Decorating, Decluttering Tips, and More: Friday Finds
This weekend I’m gearing up for Halloween by decorating the front porch for the trick-or-treaters. When I was a kid, I always appreciated houses that got in the spirit of the festivities. My dad used to dress up in a gorilla outfit and run outside whenever someone rang the doorbell for candy. It became a tradition for the neighborhood kids. But for now, let’s turn to this week’s wonderful collection of Friday Finds.
