Halloween is my FAVORITE time of the year! I love it so much that I wanted to get married on Halloween, but the hubs didn’t think it was a good idea. So, I had my bridal shower on Halloween instead. Most of the older family members thought it was strange until they arrived and had a blast. I had a ‘dress up photo station,’ candy everywhere, skeleton bride and groom and even thank you cards that were photo-booth style of the hubs and I dressed as zombies and the words ’till death do us part’ at the bottom. Like I said, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Halloween!

Anyway, finding the ‘perfect’ Halloween costume can sometimes be hard. I often opt for do it yourself projects when it comes to this holiday simply because I can never find exacty what I am looking for. Lately, I have spent a lot of time on Pinterest and have seen some really neat and innovative DIY Costumes.  Here are a few costumes at I love, that both adults and kids can wear this Halloween:
