The kitchen is also a great place to put your decorative pumpkin, as it’s usually the home’s centerpiece and where the festivities begin. Arrange them on the counter or shelves for a festive look.
Add some Halloween books and movies to get into the spooky spirit. Light some candles and enjoy a warm cup of cider while you cook up Halloween dinner.
