 Flying Bat Mantel

This FLYING BAT MANTEL is a fun way to add Halloween decor to your space in a tasteful way. It makes a statement but will not clash with the existing decor in your space, a neutral and fun idea for both kids and adults! Bend the wings to create a 3D effect as if they are actually flying out of the fireplace, and use a variety of sizes to get the best outcome.  ​

Halloween Porch Decor

Witches hats hanging from fishing line, jack o'lantern mum pot holders, and cornstalk columns are great easy, fun ways to make your front entrance festive for your trick or treaters! Once Halloween has passed this decor can easily be transitioned into Thanksgiving decor by removing the hats and turning the jack o'lanterns faces around so that the solid side of the pumpkin shows from the front entrance! ​

Witches Cauldron Centerpiece 

This is a subtle yet festive way to create a centerpiece by placing a floral arrangement into a glass vase of water, and then into a metal witches cauldron! Take it one step further and add candle stick holders with black candles on either side of the arrangement.

Air Fryer Stuffed Bell Pepper Jack O'Lanterns

• Ingredients
  • 6 Orange Bell Peppers
  • 1 Lb Ground Beef or Ground Turkey
  • 1 Package Gluten-Free Taco Seasoning
  • 3 Green Onions, Sliced
  • 2 Cups White Rice, Cooked
  • 2 Tbsp Shredded Mexican Cheese

• In a skillet or in the pot of an air-fryer, brown the ground beef and add in the taco seasoning as instructed.
  
• Mix in the green onions and cooked rice. Set aside.
• Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil cooking spray.
• Cut the top off each bell pepper and clean the inside out.
• Using a very small sharp knife, carefully carve a pumpkin face in the side of the pepper.
• Stuff each pepper with the mixture.
• Place the peppers in the air fryer basket. Leave the top of the pepper off for now. My air fryer basket fits 4 peppers.
• Cook at 350 degrees for 10 minutes in the air fryer.
• Open the air fryer, spray each pepper with olive oil cooking spray.
• Top with cheese and put the top of the pepper back on.
• Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes or until the cheese melts.
• Remove and serve.
• Repeat the steps for the additional 2 peppers if needed.
• Serve with salsa!
