I already featured a Halloween porch with floating witch hats, but also like to show you a mantel where floating witch hats really work well.
The mirror, the terracotta Jack O’lanterns, the black lanterns, and the white ghosts make this a classy and chic Halloween mantel.

This candy corn mantel is to die for! It’s so creative and I love the orange glitter spiders, the stacked candy corn-colored pumpkins, and the Boo marquee lights!
