I’m a big fan of October. Weather is just starting to get cooler, flowers are blooming, pants/jeans are making their first appearance and Halloween is right around the corner. Ah, Halloween. One of my most favorite holidays, which mean I have to plan a goulish dinner, make costumes and decorate the house. Always a really fun time for my family. Here are some things I’ve done in the past.
Arts, crafts, food:
1. Frankenstein’s monster heads, 2. Trick-or-treat1, 3. Bony Skull Vase, 4. Ink, paper, wood Pendants, 5. welcome spider, 6. Monster bags for trick-or-treating, 7. Mystical Monster Jars, 8. Halloween Dinner, 9. Ghoulish Dinner, 10. Hoot Hoot Owl, 11. Halloween Center Piece, 12. Creepy cupcakes
Costumes from the last three years:
1. Baby Elvis 2. Cowboy 3. Magician 4. Baby Bat 5. Superman 6. Jedi
Looks like I’ve got a lot to do this month, but I’m looking forward to it. Thankfully I have a few things that didn’t make the time-cut last year. Check out this door wreath and fabric too, it’s pretty darn cool.
Oh my goodness, you mean business with Halloween. I am inspired.
COOL Customs!
Oh my gosh I remember those frankenstein cupcakes! I love those!!!
Yeah for October!

Thank you for sharing ideas of old! Halloween is my favorite holiday, and I can’t wait to make more of our own decorations this year.
That Elvis costume is hilarious!
How fun – thanks for sharing all your cool ideas! I’m excited and I guess I better get started!
Oh my gosh! Those costumes are so darn cute!!!!!
Do I see pretzel fingers on the dinner plate? I made those once. I got the how to from Martha. They were surprisingly tasty 🙂
I just love that Jedi costume and I have a 5 year old that is dying to be a Jedi. If it’s not too much trouble could you give me some more details on how you made it. It doesn’t look that complicated but I think my son would love it! Thanks!
