Get ready to celebrate Halloween with a festive Dia de Los Muertos home.  I love the tradition of celebrating loved ones who have passed on.  I know some people are probably put off by that idea, but I'm the type of person who believes that people who I love are always around me in spirit. This celebration is a tradition in many Latin American countries and it's gained quite a bit of commercial popularity in recent years.  I appreciate the color, texture and beauty found in the artistry of this holiday and think there are many ways to revel in all of it's festivity.

So, I was pleased to find that Cost Plus World Market actually has a nice variety of Dia de Los Muertos decorative pieces that stand out from much of what I've seen in other stores.  I always like to head to my local  CostPlus WorldMarket (Pentagon Row – Arlington, VA) to pick up all the home decor things so, I've pieced together a list of must have items from their Los Muertos collection.

To make the Los Muertos design work for the holiday, the key idea is to mix a little Southwestern flair into the decor while celebrating the colorful artistry and symbols used during Dia de Los Muertos.  

I think it's fabulous that wall decor can serve a dual purpose by setting a festive seasonal tone and giving you instant party decor for ready to go Halloween Entertaining!  I love the idea of using  the Sugar Skull Multi-color Banner to swag across a dining room buffet or against a wall for a pop of color.  It just makes a space look festive! The Wood Skulls Wall Decor are my fave!  The Animal Skull painting is a perfect addition to the decor and blends in the Southwestern feel perfectly.

The Wood Dia De Los Muertos Nutcrackers are perfect decorative pieces and the Sugar Skull Candy Bowl is perfect for placing on a side table filled with candy or nuts.  Why not place a few Sugar Skull Pillows on your sofa or chairs for a festive (and cozy) Los Muertos feel?

These Los Muertos Skull Kitchen Towels are EVERYTHING!  Think past their intended purpose and size and cut the artwork out of the whole tea towel, then frame them for instant art!!!  If not, then use them in place of napkins.  The Felted Heart Ornament and Embroidered Skull Ornament would make perfect napkin rings or decor for your place settings.

Because Halloween Decorations and themes can change year to year - (if you're Halloween obsessed like me) - don't invest in themed plates that you have to store away.  Find colorful themed paper plates like these Dia de Los Muertos Plates and dress them up with chargers or larger plates from your everyday plates stock.   I love the look of this Floral Amaya Table Cover that can be used not just for this theme but throughout the seasons.  Blue Glass Goblets would help to anchor the place setting and bring in a lot of blues that are found in the table cover and plates.  

As a great eye catching focal point, give your table some extra love.  The Black Daisy Skull flowers would look perfect arranged around the base of the black iron candelabra.  Fill it in the rest of your arrangement with the Multi-color Peony Flowers for more color and to soften the look and you're good to go!
