Halloween Costumes
My son loved superheroes. And I love homemade costumes as they are much more creative and cuter than their store-bought counterparts. So, each year I had the fun task of making him a new costume of a different guardian of the galaxy. The hardest part was figuring out the best way to make each component. Hopefully, my trial and error will help save you a lot of time.
Making our own non-toxic costume makeup was also a lot of fun.
Halloween Recipes
I also love making fun Halloween food. I especially love trying to make healthier alternatives to the usual candy treats.
Whether it be silly and fun or creepy and spooky, any food that isn’t highly processed is less scary than the usual holiday fare. Hopefully, you’ll enjoy my ideas and will be able to make them your own.
From fun homemade costumes to spooky recipes, you’ll find all of my favorite Halloween themed posts here…
