When I was young, we played inside a cardboard box. To be fair, it was a very large box—a playhouse, in fact, brightly decorated with the cast of Looney Tunes. We kept it in the basement, along with our play kitchen and other toys, and spent many days enjoying a space that was just for us kids. Times have changed.

When it comes to the holidays, I’m often more excited, and dutiful, about putting up decorations than taking them down. After all, decorating is fun. Un-decorating? Well, not so much. This makes me a natural candidate for décor that works year-round. And what works better for Halloween and beyond than an occasional human skull? Appropriately spooky and always on trend, accessorizing with skulls is a design ‘do’ for those who dare!

With residents spending so much time inside their homes, they have reprioritized what they are looking for when it comes to their next home. The majority of the workforce is still working from home either full-time, or in a hybrid capacity, meaning the home office, or space for a desk is still a high priority on the homebuyer’s list.
