Happy Halloween!

Halloween has such potential for bringing out the kid in us.  Join in the fun with these ideas:

1.  Spider Parade:  This creepy trail of spiders startled my own family (even though I’ve done this before)  So, that was a dollar well spent!

2.  Add some eerie to existing elements:  Most of the year, Beethoven adds some dignity to the family bookshelf.  With the addition of some funky glasses, he becomes “vintage spooky.” 

The versatile apothecary dish joins the haunted fun when filled with plastic bones and moss. This display is mostly filled with year-round accessories, like the large book and various candle holders.  The strictly Halloween-themed additions are few, small (ie. requires little storage), and inexpensive choices.  If you like the spooky globes, find the tutorial from Flamingo Toes here. 

3.  Add holiday fun to unexpected places.  This adorable teddy turned bathroom attendant is a light-hearted surprise for guests.

 4.  Make some ghostly snacks, like these Cookie Ghosts & Mummies:  Check out my YouTube video for complete instructions.

Enjoy!  Hope your Halloween is “Spookilicious!”
