Top 25 Halloween Ideas

Over the last year  I have been accumulating tons and tons of Halloween ideas. Thanks to Pinterest it has been really easy. It has also been easy to see which ideas are the most popular. Last year I posted my spur of the moment Frankenstein Pudding cups. My nephews were coming over for a family dinner and I wanted to make the treats, safe for one of my nephews who is DEATHLY allergic to peanuts, but I also wanted it to be festive and halloweeny. I went to vanilla pudding and oreos and turned them into a cute Frankenstein army of pudding! I loved it, the kids loved it and best of all it was safe and fun! I posted it on the blog and to Pinterest and it has been one of my biggest Pinterest hits! With hundreds of repins.  Since Halloween is right around the corner, I thought it was high time to break out a list of what I have seen to be most popular on the web! I hope it gets you in the spooky spirit and your creative juices flowing! I LOVE Halloween and all things Fall. Crisp air, sweaters, boots, tights, cardigans, scarves, pumpkin spice candles, hot chocolate. I love it all. Oh and dont froget to enter the Delphiadees Minky Blanket or Bib set giveaway. Ends this week!
