Halloween Inspiration boards

Whether you are planning a wedding, holiday décor or decorating a room an inspiration board will help you throughout the planning process to stay on track and to ensure that everything fits together perfectly. An inspiration board is just like the collages you created as a kid, but with a grown up twist. The images that you put together represent the colors, style, theme and vibe that you want your event or home décor to convey.

Since Halloween is just around the corner I thought I would share these wonderful inspiration boards I found online. They are a great example of how to take silly and playful holiday and turn it into a elegant and divine celebration.

For the traditional orange and black affair these images are sure to envoke the Halloween spirit.




If "True Blood" is more your style the images below are sure to get the creative blood,humm I mean juices flowing.
