Saw my first inflatable Halloween lawn ornament yesterday

Yesterday, I saw the first inflatable Halloween lawn ornaments of the season. More than a month before Halloween? Seems a bit long to me. Fall decorating is fine, since it is fall, but I think September is a bit early for Halloween....External Image

Then you must not live in my town. I decorated yesterday...and am one of the last to do so. (No inflatables).

Trust me, it's not too early. Have you been in the stores lately? Christmas season has sprung already! Chat Icon

I saw my first yesterday too (actually the people had two inflatable lawn ornaments).

There are a few houses in my neighborhood decorated already. Fees kind of weird since the temps are still in the 80's.

Yep.

My neighbors already have up their vast array of tacky flaccid by day/erect by night Halloween characters.

Their postage stamp lawn boasts:

Vampire Sponge Bob
Witch Scooby Doo
Giant Pumpkin Stack

and new this year (because they didn't have enough) something that looks like a Giant Cat Head with Mice in the Mouth.

I put my halloween frankenstein on my door last weekend...Chat Icon

My fall stuff is up, too. Like the flag and the cornucopia on the table.

I HATE the inflatables, but I must admit that I saw one that I loved. It's a giant spider on someone's roof!

Looks like I will be picking up a frankenstein on my break. Thanks. Pal.

We haven't put anything up primarily because we don't have many things for the season. Possibly next year we will have some stuff.

Let me tell you, you better leave frankenstein, the scarecrow and my fall flag alone or there will be he ll to pay.

And don't worry, the winter holidays are coming...I'll be swinging by there to see what I can add to my collection.

You didn't say anything about a scarecrow in the earlier post. Even more to look forward to. My holiday decorations will be sparse. You are free to take what you like. I have the house with the for sale sign out front. Take what you like.

I don't have any inflatables but I do have my halloween light up pumpkins out. I will put my "BOO" sign on the door today. I don't think it is too early, like someone said, there is Xmas stuff in the stores already!!!

I TOTALLY hate them, too, but I completely understand that the people's kids probably love them and that's why they put them up. Or at least, that's what I tell myself... Chat Icon

I hate them. They don't look so bad at night but during the day they look terrible!

I can attest that's true. I was an inflatable hater and I don't really celebrate Halloween. But my daughter LOVES them and she's young so I get it for her (yes and one for Christmas too) Chat Icon Chat Icon

I saw one this weekend that was almost...cool. It was an old school hearse (the horse and cart ones) with a coffin in the back. How cool!

Re: Saw my first inflatable Halloween lawn ornament yesterday

Not too early to decorate for Halloween... I love the fall, but HATE the blow up lawn ornaments. My husband hates them even more because hes a landscaper & has to work around those things all day.
