Friday Faves 29 - Hallowe'en Part 2

In this week's Friday Faves we're going to do a little Hallowe'en Party partying. We're going to look at some really great Etsy items that will give your Halloween Party just the right touch of haunting appeal.

But first another great seasonal song, something a bit more sinister this time. Yes, we have Marilyn Manson doing a cover of the Danny Elfman song This is Halloween from Tim Burton's A Nightmare Before Christmas.

Friday Faves 28 - Hallowe'en Part 1

Whether you look upon this time of year as a time of the Solstice Celebration, a religious holy day or you have children with a penchant for trick or treating or you're just a big kid at heart with an equally big sweet tooth -- Hallowe'en, or All Hallow's Eve, is a great time of year to enjoy the changing weather and maybe take in or throw a party or two.

In this week's Hallowe'en Friday Faves we're going to look into some costumes for you, your little ones and maybe even your significant other.

But before we get started, let's listen to a great old tune that's always been a favorite of mine. It's campy and fun and I'm sure most of you will recognize it (and probably already know which song I'm talking about). Well, you know, I always did like a good mash.

Now, let's go shopping!

Hallowe'en Costume Shop Number 1
Shop name: Tulletime
http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tulletime?ref=seller_info

Okay. I have got to say, have you ever seen anything more precious? This Fall Fairy costume is so colorful and gorgeous! And talk about the photos you could take of your little one! Completely sweet! I love the name of this shop, too! Very clever.

Hallowe'en Costume Shop Number 2
Shop name: Noni's Closet
http://www.etsy.com/shop/NoniCloset?ref=seller_info

And for your little boy, how about a sweet little Native American style costume. This one brings back memories for me, because my mother made a Seminole girl's costume for me when I was about 10 or 11. I absolutely adored it! The wonderful thing about a costume like this for a child is that, like me, they could also wear it for show and tell and teach their fellow students a little something about the Native Peoples of the Americas.

Hallowe'en Costume Shop Number 3
