It's Halloween week! Oh, and another giveaway.

Yay! I've been waiting all year, and it's finally here - the week before Halloween. That means I'm going to post Mod Podge Halloween projects all week. I like Halloween because:
-Orange and black are nice together
-You can dress up like anybody or anything you want
-Candeh is yummeh
-No gift giving pressure
-Mod Podge projects are the most funnest this time of year, duh!

I'm starting the week with a project of my own - Halloween minis. I love mini things, and it only seems fitting that I combine minis with my favorite holiday. I know you want to get to the giveaway, so I'm abbreviating instructions here. I used Martha Stewart papers and embellishments from last year (she has some really cool ones this year at Michaels). Acrylic paint was used.

Small birdhouse - Paint birdhouse black, roof, perch and base paint white. Make orange polka dots on top of the black with the end of a paintbrush. Cut paper to fit the roof and Mod Podge down. Seal the entire birdhouse with two coats of Mod Podge. Add ribbon and embellishments (buttons and stickers) with craft glue.

Cat plaque - Paint plaque and wood cat piece black. Cut papers to fit the front of plaque and then the cat piece. Mod Podge the paper to the cat piece, coat it again and set aside. Coat the outside edge of the plaque with FolkArt Extreme Glitter in black (this stuff rocks!). Let dry and then Mod Podge the paper down to the top of the plaque. Mod Podge on top and allow to dry. Then glue down the cat piece, a ribbon on the top and some eyes (used orange rhinestones) with craft glue. Add black rhinestones around the edges on the points.

Okay, that's done. Now, THE GIVEAWAY. It's Mod Podge, of course!

Meet Shimmer, Sparkle and Glitter! With the holidays coming, I thought I should spread the specialty love. So what's the deal?

FIVE winners.
You pick TWO bottles - choose from Silver Glitter, Gold Glitter, Silver Shimmer, Gold Shimmer or Sparkle.

All you have to do is leave a comment sometime this week telling me your favorite thing about Halloween. That's it! One entry per person. Contest ends Halloween night at midnight. Enjoy your Halloween week!

I am starting to love Halloween, it is not such a big thing here in the UK, but as my children are getting a little bigger they want to do more things. So we have been Halloween crafting over the last week or so. I like that it can be really simple and involve the children!!

I love all the little kids in their fun costumes

My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing all the little kids dressed up and coming to the door for candy! I especially like it when they have homemade costumes that are really creative! It's a great source of inspiration!

I love it because it's fun and mostly because it part of enjoying the fall. The crisp air, the leaves, etc.etc.

My favorite thing about halloween is sneaking candy from the kids buckets after they have gone to bed for the night.

Sparkle, shimmer, and glitter? No way! That rocks!!!

I like Halloween candy the best...

This may sound silly, but my favorite thing about Halloween (and it has been this way since I was little) is the wonderful sugary fragrance in the trick or treat bag after making the rounds. The blend of all sorts of candy make an aroma like no other. Of course these days I'm too old to trick or treat but when my son brings home his candy haul, I always sneak a long sniff from his bag.~~~Call me crazy!~~~But it doesn't have calories to take a candy sniff!~~~Thanks for your fab give away!~~~XXOO, Beth

Love that cat plaque! My fav. thing about Halloween is also the "candeh" ha or having another holiday to decorate for!

I didn't even know such Mod Podges existed! How cool =D

My favorite part of Halloween is seeing all the little kids dressed up and having fun. Never fails to make me smile!

Love your Halloween crafts! My favorite part of Halloween are the little kids coming to the door, they're just so cute! Suzie

I LOVE Halloween because I can have another excuse to decorate my house and make DIY projects! Happy Halloween!

Looks like I'm the first leave a comment! Let's see my favorite thing about Halloween is decorating. Halloween has certainly come a long way. There are so many funky and sophisticated ways to decorate. I haven't seen those mod podge varieties. How fun!

I can't buy mod podge here so I would LOVE to get my hands on some and some sparkle for the festive season would be fantastic.
I love the spooky, scary side of Halloween and all the fun of dressing up

My favorita part of Halloween is seeing how happy people generally are. The joy of seeing our children happy makes us happy in turn. This will be my sons first Halloween and I am so excited. I think for a first time part it is such a fun experience. I like that people tend to be nicer. Maybe its the fact that there will be so many happy little kids running around and they dont want to be the mean person that ruins their Halloween or maybe its just the memories of our own Halloweens that makes them happy. Whatever it is, I LOVE HALLOWEEN : ) HAPPY HALLOWEEN WEEK!

I love Halloween, because it's the beginning of holiday decorating season. And I agree that it's fun, because it lacks the pressure of gift-giving and traveling that other holidays have.

planning costumes and of course Candy!!

How fun! I just recently found your blog and love your projects! My favorite part of Halloween is carving pumpkins (and candy is a close second!) I would love to win some sparkly,shimmery Mod Podge!

My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing kids in homemade costumes. The store bought ones are super cute, but there's something about seeing costumes that were obviously a family project that makes me smile :)

I love halloween, coz with my birthday being on the 30th, i get to combine dressing up as a monster with having cake. Probably my two most favourite things.

I love pumpkins, children smiling faces when I answer the door and especially this year since it's the first "fun" Halloween for my little girl. Her daddy was in Iraq last year so this year will be his first time seeing her all dressed up. Happy Halloween!!

Hi, Amy, thanks for stopping by! I'm a Mod Podger too & have used this stuff for a long time. Would love to try some of the shimmery ones, so I hope I win.

My fave thing about Halloween is the CANDY, of course! :)

My fave part of Halloween? I love it all, but specifically, I love pumpkins and the colours orange and black!

My favorite thing about Halloween/Fall is pumpkins!! I love to eat them, decorate with them, paint them and carve them. Happy Halloween!

I love carving pumpkins. You know those fancy ones. I just wish they would last longer. And I love mod podge. Usd it for the first time on a Fall birdhouse with pics. Love it.

I love carving pumpkins with the family! Plus playing in the leaves....oh so fun for grown ups too!

Hi Amy. My favorite thing about Halloween is that black cats get to be stars for the day - I'm very partial to black cats. I also love the after Halloween sales on snack size candy :)!! I'm just learning / experimenting with decoupage and having a great time with it. I'd like to try the Sparkle and Silver Shimmer Mod Podge - they sound like fun. Thanks for the giveaway and Happy Halloween!

I love punkin pie, carmel apples, and cider!

I should say something better, but I'm going with CHOCOLATE. Just lots and lots of good candy, that's my favorite part.

Shimmery, sparkly Mod Podge will make some great Christmas ornaments!

I love all of the great patterned papers available for Halloween-so many papers, so little time! Thanks for the chance to win and the great projects!

CANDY is my favorite part!!!

Well besides the obvious- candy....and of course the pumpkins, I love answering the door to little ones out trick or treating! This year I'll have my own out & about- a little cowboy!

Thanks so much :)

I love acting like a kid again

Okay, First things First, I have never ever used Mod Podge {GASP!} I have heard of it but never known how or when to use it. After browsing your site I see SO many ways to incorporate it into crafts, etc.

My favorite thing about Halloween is:
the fall crisp leaves, hot chocolate and the spooky feeling in the air. I also LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to see how excited my daughter gets over trick or treating!

I love Halloween because it's such a gerat excuse to let your wild side loose :o) You get to dress up in a crazy costume and be wacky...And it's fun making neat Halloween stuff :o)

Making Pumpkin Seeds and geting the little ones to share there chocolate with me LOL.

Thanks for the chance into this giveaway.

My favorite thing is all of the cute little kiddies in their costumes. Love the cute minis! Too much fun...
pk @ Room Remix

I love seeing the little kiddos who show up at my door seeking treats! My treat is watching the glee of the teeny ones.

My favorite thing about Halloween is getting to watch my kids enjoy all the fun that comes along with it! The pumpkins, costumes, the candy...I just love watching them enjoying it all!

I love carving pumpkins with my kids just like I did when I was a kid. We save the seeds to roast.

i'm not sure i can narrow what i love about halloween down to just one thing (i'm a huge holiday lover)! i love seeing all the kids dressed up when they come to the door, how much fun everyone has, pumpkins, candy, and the fun decorations everyone has. plus, it's kind of like halloween kicks off the fall holiday season...

I love that at Halloween I don't have to be a grown up so much!!

My favorite thing about Halloween is opening the door and hearing tiny voices saying "Trick or Treat". Now that my kids are grown; it's so fun to enjoy the little one's excitement on Halloween night.
I use mod podge and would love the shimmer and sparkle!!!

For me, it's about the candy, mostly :). Thank you for offering this great give-away. Thank you for all the wonderful inspiration!

I love kids delight in Hallowe'en. I have 2 kids (ages 3 & 5) and I try to make their costumes original. We don't buy already prepared outfits. I want to inspire them to keep Hallowe'en creative when they get older and hope that by creating these original ideas, we will.

My fav part of Halloween is watching the little one's faces when you had them candy or compliment them on their costume!

Leslie

Only one favourite thing?! When I was a kid Halloween was huge in our house. My dad and I made rather elaborate costumes (Wrinkle dogs, a paper mache unicorn head, etc). And I still enjoy costumes. But my favourite now is all the mini candy! I know it's bad for the environment, all that packaging, but I just love it!

And I would love Sparkle and gold shimmer.

My favorite thing about Halloween is roasting the pumpkin seeds after carving and eating them. Yum!

Dressing up. Being whoever/whatever is just the coolest! I would love to win this set ... hard part would be choosing which two to get though!

My favorite thing is when we are trick or treating and getting to see the way people use their own creative ways of decorating the homes. Sometimes they are cutesy, and sometimes terrifying! One year there was even this amazing older woman walking around with a huge rat trying to scare people and acting creepy! In a nutshell, the spirit!

I love trick or treating with my 2 year old daughter and carving pumpkins with her. I like the silver shimmer and the sparkle and I love your blog.

My favorite thing about Halloween is dressing my son up to go trick or treating!

I love dressing up and the candy of course
diva2129 at yahoo dot com

I love carving pumpkins, the smell of fall in the air, kids in their costumes!

Love seeing my kiddos dressed up! :)

My favorite thing about halloween is getting together with family and friends and seeing the creative ideas they come up with. This is my sons first halloween and I think from now on, my favorite thing about halloween is seeing him dress up! What a cutie!

I love the looks and responses from the kids when I give them full size candy bars :):):):) Halloween rocks- and I want to have the house everyone wants to go to!

Chocolate,Chockolate, Choc-o-lote, gimmie lots of CHOCOLATE!

My favorite thing about Halloween has to be the smell, the smell of pumpkin carving, the smell of outside when the a cool breeze passes by. LOVE IT!!!

I have two favorite things about halloween and they are tied. I love all the cute decorations not spooky cute. Also, I love the smile on the kids faces when they dress up and get candy!
love the glitter.

I love watching my nephews go trick or treating and this year I get to see my school kids dressed up and parading around our school so it will be a great Halloween!

Thanks for the giveaway

My favorite thing about Halloween is the whole "fantasy" part of it. It's so awesome to be able to "play dress up" for one day as an adult, & not be thought of as weird...LOL!

my favorite thing about halloween is putting on my thinking cap to come up with costume that no one would expect!

My favorite thing about Halloween would be the candy! I don't eat much of it, but I enjoy watching my kids enjoy it! They get so excited when we go pick it out, I love watching them find their favorites!

I love seeing the little kids in their costumes especially when they are just learning to say "Trick or Treat"!

I love the "family" part of Halloween. All the kids out with there dads and the moms following in toe. The parents are usually wearing some costume they just fabbed out of there drawer because they have spent countless hours sewing and crafting there childs costume. I also love the Silver Glitter and Silver Shimmer...what can I say I come from where there is alot of ice:)

My favorite thing is the candy I get to eat. I am dreading hauling my 37 week pregnant belly to the door every 30 seconds all evening though... Maybe my two year old can do it?

carlamo (at) ymail (dot) com

My favorite part of Halloween would be that it is always a fun holiday no matter how old you are. When your a kid you trick or treat. When your in College you go to fun parties. And when your married decorate your house all fun and take your kids trick or treating!

I LOVE making halloween cupcakes!!! My favorite? Creepy Crawley Cookies and Cream!!

I love taking the kids trick-or-treating. They love it so much!

I should say that my favorite is seeing my cute one year old daughter all dressed up as a fairy, but I have to say I really do love the candy!

What I love abt Halloween is the children on trick or trick! There is such electricity in the air - especially with the kids that finally are getting the whole candy thing.

My favorite thing about Halloween is how my daughter starts planning her costume for the next Halloween on November 1st. The excitement she has for being able to be whatever she wants is contagious. Shed those skins people!

I love carving pumpkins! then I get to soak the pumpkin seeds in salt water, and bake them to eat! so delicious!

The best part of Halloween is watching my son get excited ... it brings back all of my happiest Halloween memories and reminds me what a truly fun time it is...no stress over dinners and presents - just fun! He started decorating and planning in August, so we've had a lot of time to get pumped for this holiday. :)

My favorite thing about Halloween are pumpkins on porches and the color palette of fall trees against a grainy sky.

I LOVE dressing up! Very rarely do we use store bought costumes and even then it's just bits and pieces.

I love dressing up and seeing all the different costumes to get ideas!!!

My favorite thing is decorating pumpkins with friends outside when it's cool and warming up with chili afterwards!

It would have to be the colors and the costumes! When else can you wear orange, lime green and purple? I love it!

ok, you have to know how hard it is for me to pick just ONE thing... lol!

I love love love the craft projects!! I'm going to do candy bar mummy wrappers! There are only half a dozen people in my department at work. so I figured doing full sized or jumbo candy bars! Also! We do a pumpkin decorating contest, I'm doing my pumpkin like the green m&m!! and I'm going to "bribe" the judges with little bags of m&ms!! hehe!!

I hope your halloween is great! I love reading your blog and seeing your projects!!! I've already decided if I don't get picked for your giveaway, I'm picking up the silver shimmer and the sparkle mod podge for my Christmas projects I have lined up!! I hope I get picked!! *cross fingers*

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, Amy. I was incredibly flattered. If you want the recipe for the curried lentils you can find it Here :-)

My favorite thing about Halloween is the availability of orange and black jellybeans.

That's easy, getting dressed up! I'm a college student and I definitely look forward to working on a cool, fun costume every Halloween. :D

My favorite thing about Halloween are the sale finds afterward. I buy decoration bits for the next year then!

My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing the excitement in my granddaughter, nieces and nephew's faces as they talk about what they are going to be for Halloween. And then seeing them in costume.

My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing how excited my kids get!
teri (one of the 2sisters @ acraftyclan)

I love halloween because it is finally cool enough to have chili and just sit outside and enjoy the BEAUTIFUL weather!

I love seeing all the adults get out of their comfort zones and dress up in crazy stuff!!

Perfect for the Holiday season!

jennifer.powell06(at)gmail.com

Mu favorite thing about Halloween is that's the time of year Brachs Autumn Mix appears in the stores...yum!

Halloween is my favorite season to decorate for. One of my favorite things to do is buy tiny plastic spiders (you can find them at party stores) and hot glue them to my walls, so I have spiders crawling all over. Very fun and quite the crowd pleaser. The spiders pull right off and I have never had any problems with it damaging anything (I even stick them on my tv, book cases, everywhere!

That is my favorite thing!

zilnewt@yahoo.com

I love this time of year; the changing of the leaves, the cool crisp air, the lovely colors!

My favorite thing about halloween is taking my son trick-or-treating. He is so excited this year, and the anticipation is building!

favourite thing bout halloween? carving the pumpkins (some pics on my blog) you only do it once a year so you dont get to practise but when it comes out well its even more satisfying :)

My favorite thing about Halloween would have to be the trip to the pumpkin patch to pick out just the perfect pumpkin. Followed of course by some HOT apple cider to warm up and the annual Pumpkin Carving Party! I love Halloween!

My favorite thing about Halloween, despite not knowing everyone in the housing development, or even everyone liking each other, everyone is sharing and giving on this night. When my husband takes my daughter out trick or treating, I get to see all sorts of people with big smiles, excited that I have something for them. At the same time, people are so generous to share with my daughter as she trick or treats among our neighbors. Even though there are tricks and costumes, as there are every day, there is giving and sharing!

MY favorite thing about Halloween has always been being able to act out my imagination in costumes and carving pumpkins!!! This year my favorite thing is picking out costumes for my pom pup! :) Love your giveaway- glitter makes everything better!

And where did you get the cat piece? It's so cute!

My favorite thing about Halloween is making costumes!!!

My fave thing about halloween is... candies!!!!, I want them all for me!

I love this blog. I happened upon it a few weeks ago and since then I've been imagining everything Mod Podged! The thing I love the most about Halloween is raiding my kids candy bowls for all of the CHOCOLATE!

I love all the pumpkins and flavors of the season. Just got apple cider donuts and pumpkin donuts at the pumpkin patch yesterday. Oh and apple cider of course. Yummy!!

Cool giveaway!

I love dressing up my kids. They are so cute! I would love to try sparkle mod podge. How fun! tspendlove@hotmail.com

I love giving out the candy to all the dressed up girls and boys. Their excitement is contagious!

My favorite thing about Halloween is the trick or treating. I definitely trick or treated all through high school and we went in college once while we lived in the dorms. Special, right? : )

pumpkin-flavored everything! I love roasting the seeds, baking the pies, and sipping a spicy pumpkin latte. If I can do all this in a costume, all the more better :)

I love everything about Halloween, so it's difficult to choose a favorite!

I'll have to say the delight on my son's face when he's getting ready to walk up to that first door...

bethisway which is at gmax, then the dot, then the com

Ouuu I can't pick just one thing, I love Halloween, it's my favorite holiday of the year! The crafts rock, dressing up is the best, candy doesnt hurt either. Mmmm.... and cookies. And parties, and and and.... love it!

My favorite part of halloween is getting to see all of the great neighborhood kids that visit our house! I love seeing their inventive costumes.

Taking my niece to the pumpkin patch is my favorite thing! She has so much fun...and I do too!

I. Love. Halloween. Everything about it - the orange and black, now with those great purple and green accents, getting dressed up, hearing the kiddos say what they want to be (and hearing them change their minds a million times - which makes it okay for me to change my mind a million times) trick-or-treating, and of course the candy. But my very favorite thing is decorating my house for the season and making sure everything is just perfect for my Halloween party.

I absolutely love that bird house with the owl! This blog post is going in my idea log!

I am entering for the Mod Podge giveaway! Thank you for this opportunity! :)

It's hard to narrow it down to just one thing I like about halloween....since my kids are grown...I can now dress up my dogs...My bichons don't like it too much but they look so cute! Fall is my most favorite time of year....the beautiful colors and the crisp temps...it's all good!

My favorite part about Halloween is when I get to carve pumpkins with my nieces! They're so funny, they don't like the goop, but they like the end result!

My favorite thing about Halloween is the scary movies and dressing up!

My favorite thing about Halloween is that it's the gateway to the holiday season!

Fall is so wonderful (:
My favorite thing about Halloween is thinking up a fun costume & creating it. And also helping out at the church's harvest festival. Its so much fun seeing all the lil munchkins dressed up, playing games, smiling, and eating as much candy as they can manage. Such a fun time!

Pumpkins, candy, kids in goofy clothes. What could be better?

My favorite thing about Halloween is dressing my children up in their costumes and see the sparkle in their eyes when they see the candy.

My favorite thing about Halloween is going to the great Halloween party where I met, my now (as of Oct. 16th), husband! :-)

I never actually celebrated growing up, but this year we have 2 little babies (9 mos. and 4 mos.) to dress up so this year will be my favorite year; the year we start our traditions.

I love any excuse I can get to decorate my house ghouls, HUGE spiders, headless scarecrows, and fun colors like black, orange and purple. Seriously, how cool is that?!!!

I love handing out candy and seeing all the kids in their cute costumes!

My favorite thing is to make Halloween costumes for my kids and see their faces when they try them on for the first time!

I love that Halloween is in the fall, and I also love any holiday that celebrates creepy movies and candy!

When I was young my mom hated Halloween and everything about it. WE used to just sit around as a family and watch a movie so we wouldn't have to give out candy and mom wouldn't have to take us trick or treating. No costumes, none of it. So now that I'm a mom with two little ones, I absolutely LOVE dressing them up in cute little outfits and costumes. I love shopping for the fun/goofy costumes that make Halloween the best. I'm hoping to get more and more into it each year.

I love figuring out what I'm going to dress up as. My ideas are normally way too elaborate and I'm too much of a procrastinator to really get anything done but it's fun all the same. And when I actually do do something it's that much more amazing!

My favorite part about Halloween is all the fun fall activities - hay rides, pumpkin patches, pumpkin baking, scarecrow festivals, etc

I am SO excited about Halloween. The next 3 months are my VERY favorite because it is one holiday after another. I have a few favs about Halloween. This year the kiddos & I have decorated the house with their crafts & I love it. I am looking forward to the CANDY that my kiddos bring home...they usually leave the chocolate for me :). I am also looking forward to spending a few nights with the kids dressed up & enjoying some family time. I LOVE THE HOLIDAYS!!!

I love 2 things: seeing how cute the little kids in their costumes are, and PUMPKINS - carving and cooking/baking..and all else pumpkin. (Starbucks, fall pumpkin candles, pumpkin lotion!)

I love scaring the kiddies that come for candy!!! That's the BEST!

My mom loves Halloween, so growing up she always decorated the house with awesome "spooky" decorations. That love was pasted on to me, especially now that I have children. Plus, it gives me an excuse not to dust for a month and it will fit in nicely with the decor. :) Ok, not with every piece, but some. Happy Halloween eeehhhhh

I LOVE dressing up at halloween! It's so much fun!

I love pretty much everything about Halloween, but I think my favorite is the colors (black, orange, green . . .) I love those colors for some reason and decorating for Halloween is always so much fun

I love watching my kids trick-or-treat.

I love pretty much everything about Halloween. I love the chance to be crafty, and Halloween gives you so many opportunities. Carving pumpkins, creating costumes, decorating, baking, etc., I love it all!

I love coming up with creative costumes-- I am still trying to convince my husband to dress up as the swine flu for his work costume contest =), just have to get him to agree to the pink sweatsuit!

I love decorating my home with the cutsey decorations I've collected over the years, that, and of course, chocolate!

I love seeing the cute kids in their costumes, too, of course!

I love halloween time because first off its my birthday month and because I love to see all the little kids cute costumes and I love candy corn!!

My favorite thing is how excited my kids get for their costumes!!

I like Halloween for the cool, crisp night. I love traipsing through crackly yellow leaves while I cross my fingers for no rain. I love listening to the sing-song laughter of the kids as they scramble from house to house. I love looking at the wistful faces of parents as they wait at the end of driveways and walkways for their children - their facial expressions are always show such love and protection.

I love love love the costumes of all the little kids that come trickor treating.. it makes for some wonderful pictures! Love the crafts, girl. You are muy talente.

glitter mod podge? How fun! I like the idea of sharing with Halloween. It is just plain fun for kids.

This year the best thing about Halloween is that it falls on a weekend!

Not many people celebrate it here in Australia, but I've always wanted to throw a Halloween party and since my 25th Birthday is the following week I've decided to host a Halloween costume party this year.

So excited!

My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing random people out & about doing regular daily things but in costume.

My favorite thing about Halloween is...fun size candy. There is no recommended dosage....I get to have lots of fun :)

My two favorite things about Halloween are 1st the candy/chocolate and 2nd getting to decorate my home!!!!

My church has a Saturday, always around Halloween, that we get together and craft. It's called Super Saturday. Its like a 6 hour day dedicated to making all sorts of awesome crafts. We do it every year. Mod podge has gotten me through some of my favorite crafts around my home! I always look forward to Halloween because then it means CRAFT time!

My favorite thing about Halloween is that my son was born on it!!

my favorite thing about halloween is carving pumpkins! once you get past all of the goopy innards, it's nothing but pure fun!

I love seeing creative costumes, and fall decor.....I love the colors!

Happy Halloween!! My favorite part of the holiday is seeing the creative costumes people come up with! And also I just love my neighborhood at Halloween...the adults all visit with eachother while the kids are walking around and we share stories over cider or wine.

I love making the costumes. I know buying them from the store is fast and easy (and probably looks better) but I love creating my kids dreams!

I love Halloween because it is one more reason to be crafty and spice things up around the house by decorate with cute crafty Halloween things!

I guess my favorite thing about halloween & this time of year is the fun decorating we get to do. No really, don't believe me, my house has been decorated since August...(sad, but true)

I love that my teachers are all changing the due dates of their school work so the weekend will be free! Trick-or-treating here I come! :)

my favorite part would be helping dd carve the pumpkin. She gets so excited.mavans@scottsboro.org

My favorite thing about Halloween is a new one this year. My daughter and nephew are obsessed with skeletons. The other day when I asked my nephew what he wanted to be when he grew up he said "a skeleton." I told him he couldn't be that and he said, "ok. panties." He is 3.

Halloween has always been my favorite, but when I grew up and became a gourd artist....it is Halloween everyday! My favorite is the carving of the pumpkin!

What I love best in the no gift giving, but I guess since we still have to give candy there is gift giving. But the good part of giving candy is that I get to eat some while I pass it out. So it's all good!

The thing that I like best about Halloween is that you can do as much or as little as you want and your good to go. You can buy some candy and be done with it or really go all out. I perfer going all out! Kim

I love everything about Halloween! My friend who loves everything Christmas doesn't get it, but I don't get her obsession either! If it's spooky or black and orange, I'm all over it!
