Time to edit your Halloween decorations

24 October 2023

In my neighborhood, people are going all-out with Halloween decor this year. I’ve noticed an abundance of skeletons in people’s yards in particular. And many of them look new. (There must be a skeleton trend I’m missing out on by not going to stores.)

If you bought new Halloween decor this year (or even if you didn’t), I encourage you to take a good look at the Halloween decorations you didn’t put up this year. Rather than just leaving it in the bin when you put away this year’s items, perhaps you could take a few minutes and look through this year’s rejects. Is there decor you could let go of so you don’t have to sort through it next year?

Holiday decor tends to take up so much storage space in our homes, yet it’s used so infrequently. I always think it’s a great idea to edit your collection when you’re putting decor away so that you’re not taking up valuable space by storing items you may never use again. Perhaps anything tattered or wilted can go away (unless it makes your heart sing when you see it). Make sure your decor is worthy of its storage space!
