Creative Halloween Cards, Crafts and Costumes

Halloween has historically not been my favorite holiday (since perhaps the age of 8); however, in recent years, I’ve come to appreciate the pretty Rifle Paper Co. cards, sweet pumpkin DIYs, and adorable little baby/toddler costumes. My favorite source of creative crafts is definitely Sugar & Cloth, and I love all of the costumes that Studio DIY creates.

In honor of next week’s spooktacular celebrations, I’ve put together my favorite paper goods, eerie crafts and creative costumes. This morning, one of my favorite blogs – Lark & Linen – published 12 ‘non-lame’ halloween crafts. It’s a great roundup too!

Do you love Halloween? Will you be trick or treating next week? If you need some baby costume inspiration, check out Hook, Thread and Tinker’s adorable roundup here.

Cards

“You’re my favorite creeper”? Um, yes. That and the orange monster. Oh and the gold leaf skull? How elegant. I love these cards so much.

Crafts

I love me some gold polka dots – who would have thought to add them to a pumpkin? Love. And that monster wreath cracks me up. Too cute.Sequin Polka Dot Pumpkin // Halloween Glassware Decals // Wicked Witch Cupcakes

Costumes

Halloween seems to be a holiday where people really, uhh, let loose? I hate to be a grandma, but no thanks. I adore this roundup of creative and conservative costumes. A glass of bubbly? Yup. As for the kiddos, I giggled when I found ‘It’s raining cats and dogs’ – does it get any cuter?
