BOOtiful Secretary {Halloween 2014}

 

Seasonally, I love to add decor to one of my favorite pieces, the parlor secretary.

On the desk, my House Proud book still takes center stage. Atop the book is a spooky, glittery hand.

A Two’s Company spider plate and Nest seasonal candle fill the space to the left.

I am still in love with the Edison lamp. It looks great for all seasons, but I believe it looks at its best for the Halloween month. A mercury-glass beaker is filled with aged wax tapers.

The rest of the secretary is filled with treasures I have scored along my travels and special artwork by Jax Frey.

Come and share a SPOOKtacular cocktail with me. Boo, y’all!

  7. Your secretary is bootiful. Yours looks exactly like mine, which I inherited from my ex's Aunt. I just love that piece of furniture. Love all the Halloween decorations on it.
