Well, first and foremost I would like to thank our friends over at Vintage Street Market for a great week! The Ribbonistas had such fun creating with your products! Now, of course, I wanted to end this week with a giveaway….but I also wanted to have a bit of fun with it. So, I thought we'd talk a little Halloween.

we will be getting spooked/tricked by a ghost and batman this year. makes me scared and excited at the same time.
My daughter will be the Mad Hatter and my son will be BUZZ LIGHT YEAR universe protection unit!. lolol Or that's what he say's. He's in a wheelchair so I have some very bright LED lights to attach to it so it will sort of look like a space ship. It's also a good way for people to see him as we live in a very hilly city and most homes aren't wheelchair assessable. This way his sister and her friends knock on the door and I stay behind with him. He';s chair well be so bright knowone can miss him. lololol
Last year I was a witch!! My grandson is going to be a monkey. I am excited as this is the first year I think he may understand the holiday. Thanks
I dressed up as a Kitchen Witch last year. Wore a Halloween apron, with a witch's hat and a carried a wooden spoon in my apron pocket. The costume had to be something simple to wear to work that we could work in.

my "little ones" are no longer little enough to dress up! we'll keep busy handing out goodies to the trick-or-treaters. Last time I dressed up was as a mime with the kids about 8 years back…it was fun to dress up with them and take them out! I miss those days!
My little ones are my grandchildren. Aidan will be Spiderman and Isla will be a Princess. I will be a witch as I have dressed as one for several years now. I have the PERFECT witch hat with a veil and spider on the top and neon green and black striped stockings.
My little one is dressing as an anime from one of her faveorite shows and last halloween I dressed as an old woman in her pajamas. Was really not a costume but all who came to the door tghought it was so yep i went with it .
No little ones. But I torture the dog – one year I got a small bikini top and childs grass skirt, plastic lei and she looked adorable. I am going to recycle costumes this year from 2 years ago. My husband and I dressed as aging Aerosmith groupies.
No Little Ones here and the cat only steals my ribbons he won't let me dress him up lol . Last Year I was a Dark fairy and the wings where a little plain so I dressed them up with glitter, bling, black silk flowers and lots of black silk Ribbons. Then I also had fake blades that I dressed up with cords and more ribbons the Halloween stores have great things but they need to be tweaked to be more personal.
thanks for the chance
hugs Nikki C
