Preview: 31 Day Spooktacular!

Fall is my favorite time of year. Football, hunting, the crisp aroma of leaves, apple cider, cool air, pumpkin-flavored everything, and
 HALLOWEEN!!!! 

I'm not sure how I became so obsessed with this holiday. I have no emotional or religious ties to the holiday, it's just so spooktacular! (rolling eyes at self).

 Here's an embarrassing fact: I have been having dreams about Halloween since January. Yes, January.  One more embarrassing fact: My heart actually races when I get to the Halloween decor area in stores.

To save my dignity, I'm going to cut to the chase.

 I will be posting 31 projects about Halloween/Autumn from now until October 31 
(I originally was going to post every day of October but then realized that if you want to recreate some of these goodies, October is too late!)


The posts will consist of crafts, DIY projects, decor, recipes... anything that has to do with this fun-filled day.  If you aren't a fan of Halloween (or autumn in general) come back and see me in November :)



Please, if you are a Halloween-lover like me, leave me a comment or blog address so I can see all of your creative, spooky ideas.  Or email me at coleyhueske@hotmail- I'd love to feature you and your awesome projects!

So get Ready...
FOR a 31 Day Spooktacular!!

    Yay! I honestly can't wait for this! Thank you for doing this prior to October...because I'll be in Italy for most of the month and I certainly want to partake in the decorative festivities!
    Happy Halloween and Happy Friday!!!

    Love this! I am currently obsessed with everything pumpkin! I have been making pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin lattes, pumpkin parfaits, and another blogger told me a pumpkin smoothie recipe!

    Happy Friday!

    Halloween is my favorite holiday, too! DH and I have a bit of a problem. We love it waaaaaay too much. My mom always thought I was a freak growing up because I would decorate my bedroom for Halloween since she wouldn't let me decorate the whole house. Well, needless to say when she came to my humble abode last year in October, she just rolled her eyes.

    great you've adopted a one-off holiday too! i've decided to adopt Easter, as in giving Easter instead of Christmas presents to friends and decorate overload for it
