Board #305: All Hallows Eve
Happy Halloween all! Last year I did a more formal, Victorian-Gothic style Halloween board, but this year I thought I do something a little more playful and sweet. I was largely inspired by vintage Halloween cards and toys, and thought crepe paper streamers would be a perfect decorative element for this inspiration board (whether for a wedding or just a Halloween party).

I love this Halloween board. So cute!
love it! I was just reading on Martha Stewart about vintage halloween postcards--spooky fun!
I adore this! If I didn't have my heart set on a certain style already, I would so be talking the man into this.
So much fun - this is just brilliant. As always, your stuff is divine!

Kathryn, love your board today. I have to admit that I created a Halloween wedding inspiration board for today because I so loved the one you did last year! Thanks for your continuous inspiration... xoxo, Lisa
this is so cool. you make it look classic and quite whimisical. I am a fan! I also love the purple, black and white halloween color scheme too.
Thanks for using our vintage wallpaper invite! Love this round-up. It makes me feel like I took my wedding too seriously cause this would have been sooo much fun!
wow, I never would've even considered the thought of a halloween wedding.. but if it looked as fabulous as this board, I'd do it in a heartbeat! btw, I am LOVING those pumps!
Thanks for showing our newest Halloween Card (bewtiching you a happy halloween greeting)!
Love the whole halloween board!
Love love love these images. They are all so great! Happy Halloween- even if it is a little late! Daisy~
I just wanted to say that you are so incredibly skilled at creating these boards and you provide daily inspiration. Thanks so much for all your hard work!
I adore your boards in general, but as I'm having a 'hallowedding' this was particularly fun for me.
Would you happen to have any insight into the flowers used in that bouquet? It's brilliant.
Hi deadmanslog,
The bouquet in the top row is made of white hydrangea and black-beaded flowers. The bouquet in the bottom row is white sweetpeas, narcissus, ornithogalum and black privet berries. I hope that helps!

Thank you, Kathryn. That helps tremendously!
The entire board is fabulous, but the pennant & lace photograph and the bouquet up top just grabbed me.
:)
