Have a happy (and safe) halloween!

Here are some suggestions for having the safest Halloween possible in 2020. With the current high risk of COVID-19 transmission, Dallas County is asking you to be creative in the way you celebrate Halloween this year. Here are a few of their ideas:

🧟‍♀️💻Virtual Costume Contest

🚘🕸Car Parades

👻📽Spooky Movie Night

🔍🍬Candy Scavenger Hunt

Let us know how you are celebrating #HalloweenAtHome this year by tagging us in your pictures and using #StaySpookyStaySafe! 🎃Full details here.

Ghoulish Yard Contest and Tour

This year has been spooky (SO SPOOKY) in a zillion ways. Time to take a break from scary reality, and embrace ghoulish yards committed to going all out for Halloween.

Don’t know about other neighborhoods, but Oak Cliff really is one of the best we’ve seen for yard decorating. From massive blowups, and giant spiderwebs, to creative, self-made scenes. We love driving the blocks of Kessler Park, Winnetka Heights, and Kings Highway this time of year. 

Help us out, by sharing your favorite yards, like this spooky one above on Winnetka. Email a pic with the address (at least block number, street, and city) by Friday, Oct, 30 at midnight. We will post them all next week, for others who want to see the sights. In addition, we will declare a winner on Saturday. The winning yard and submitter of the yard will receive a special prize from The Jenni Stolarski Team. 

Happy Halloween! 

XOXO,

Jenni & Em

two great homes open this Sunday

The Jenni Stolarski Team has two great homes open this Sunday, October 25th.

First, go see Emily Ruth in Kessler Plaza at this home with 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, at an amazing price, just under $300,000. There are also 2 living areas, open to the dining room and kitchen. This home is a dream for entertaining! There is even a new deck in the back yard for your socially distant outdoor parties.

Then at 3pm you can find Emily Ruth at 619 S Clinton. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with a casita has so much charm. When you arrive, you’ll be greeted by immaculate tolerant landscaping. Once inside the original front door you’ll see custom built-ins, original hardwood floors, an updated kitchen with quartz countertops and so much more. This is a must-see.

Save Your Green Buddies

You know that we love the outdoors and plants. In fact, Jenni has a whole courtyard dedicated to potted succulents and cacti. If you’re a Jenni Stolarski Team client, you may have even received one of these plant offspring. Did we mention, we love plants?

Here’s a seasonal heads up, for your green buddies…there’s an unusually early cold front coming to North Texas early next week. That’s right, on Monday, October 26th, the temps are supposed to drop all day. And on Tuesday/Wednesday overnight lows are predicted to be in the 30’s. Too cold for our most tender plants.

So if you’re like Emily Ruth, bring in your money tree and aloe on Monday morning. And, if you are like Jenni, you may want to get a jumpstart with the plant migration this weekend. Thank goodness for the plant dolly that lives in her yard and the roll up door to make it easier. Certain large pots of cactus can handle this cold snap, so you may just want to water them deeply on Monday. As for inground plants, consider covering tender annuals and herbs (think tomatoes, basil, etc)…because you know it will be back up to 70oF this month.

For other helpful hints on winter care for your plants, read on here and here.
