Disneyland Inspired Halloween Decorating Ideas (Le Bat en Rouge)

What better place to get Halloween decorating inspiration than from Disneyland's Le Bat en Rouge.


Le Bat en Rouge Disneyland


Essentially you want to make arrangements of objects that have a slightly sinister feel to them. You can purchase them new or hunt thrift stores, craigslist or your attic. Things to keep an eye open for are: old books, black bird cages, fake crows
black foliage, apothecary supplies, skulls and bones, interesting bottles, lanterns, velvety tapestry, metal goblets

I'd love to see pictures if you pull it together!

Adventureland Skulls

Found these gems in the hundreds of photos I took on our trip to Disneyland. Wish I had made a conscious effort to spot more skulls in the park to create a larger collage. If you make it to the park soon, there is a great big silver skull in Downtown Disney's Disney Store window (celebrating Pirates of the Caribbean)
I thought these would be great inspiration for Halloween decorating!

Monique Duke Photography

My husband and I met with Kim and Brad for dinner at Disney's new Trader Sam's Tiki Bar. We ate good food... talked about eating good food... let the boys talk some football... laughed... and enjoyed the magical ambiance. And if good food and company weren't enough, we did their photo session in Disneyland! Kind of a dream come true for me! Kim and Brad are now both on my top 10 list of favorite people in the world!!!

Disneyland on Dear Photograph

Have you seen Dear Photograph? This site features a picture of a picture from the past in the present. As a photographer and artist I really love this creative concept and would LOVE to do one myself! Might have to go through my parents old Disneyland photos for our next trip! Let me know if you try it first!
