Halloween may not be widely celebrated in my family, even though my cousin’s birthday is on Halloween, but it was always my favorite holiday growing up because Halloween dress up parties were always the funnest and most elaborate! I get all super excited when I start seeing shop windows covered with cotton cobwebs with plastic spidies stuck to them because I know the time of haunting is coming round again soon! To me, Halloween is a celebration of the fall season in a fun and lighthearted way.

Halloween crafts anyone? Yes please!
