Happy Monday Lovecats! I was just getting ready to prepare a Monday Motivation post when I randomly ended up on Pinterest and spotted this lace and chain finger glove and swiftly added it to my DIYs category… when I clicked on it, though, to see the source, thinking it would be handmade from Etsy or …
At the beginning of October, I picked up a home decor magazine with a Halloween inspired cover (I think it was Good Housekeeping), just because it had been so long since I actually flipped through the pages of a magazine vs swiping through the internet or pinterest for inspiration. And whaddya know? I got inspired! …
I resisted posting all day yesterday because I wanted to start off the month with something festive, yet I wouldn’t really allow my mind to go into create-mode (do you know the feeling?) So I stalled all day long and continued procrastinating (by keeping very busy doing a million other things)… But I’ve vowed to …
I was GOING to wait until October to start posting Halloween inspo, BUT this was just too darn cute to pass up! Besides, I mean, if you’re anything like me, you’re really kind of thinking about what you’re going to be for Halloween all year long, right? Inspired by an illustration by Rene Grau (see …
HOW CUTE IS THIS Floral Unicorn Pumpkin?!?! I think I found The Party Parade last week or so via CraftGawker and have had the window open ever since just waiting to share it. And since I can’t seem to focus on anything at all today, it’s the perfect day to do so. It’s the perfect …
* By guest contributor Laney Schwartz, creator of Life is But a Dish I’m back on the pumpkin train. It’s pretty much impossible not to be! It’s just SO good. Agree? Are you with me? I could definitely eat pumpkin bread and/or muffins all day long. Like, if I had to ONLY eat pumpkin muffins …
I’m not sure why I’m obsessed with decorating skulls this year, but I just love it. My Embellished Pirate Treasure Skull DIY was far more intricate and time consuming than these flower adorned skulls, but I love them just the same. Needless to say, there’s no real need for a full tutorial because really, you …
DIY / DRINKS // Spooky Zombie Merlot Halloween Cocktail (October 2012) This Halloween cocktail post features a dark, blood-red merlot-based drink styled for a spooky, cinematic presentation, with DIY skeleton arms reaching up from the glass made from black licorice. The effect creates a playful “rising from the blood” illusion, blending humor and horror in …
Each October, I generally do a really big Halloween costume DIY complete with hair and makeup tutorials, but I really couldn’t decide what to do this year. Instead, I’ve been super crafty and creative with much smaller Halloween projects, which is pretty fun for a change. I found this glam embellished skull on Pinterest recently …
* Recipe by guest contributor Laney Schwartz, creator of Life is But a Dish HALLOWEEN! Seriously? Already? It’s happening, whether we like it or not. Can we discuss the cuteness of these Candy Corn Sugar Cookies? OMG. Ridiculous. Can we also take a moment to discuss my hatred toward candy corns? I know, hate is …
I don’t really rock nail art manicures too often anymore but simply stick with a few coats of my favorite classic red on my nails… pretty much at all times. However, when I added tiny crystal triangle studs to my deep purple manicure for my Halloween tablescape, I couldn’t help thinking how much better it …
Okay, here are the final DIY Costume Details / Tutorials for my Harley Quinn Arkham Knight. I absolutely LOVE how this entire look turned out, but it had a ton of elements that I’ve had to spread out over a few different posts. To finish the costume, click the links below to find the full …
Oh I just love Halloween! How is it not your favorite time of the year and holiday? I think I may even enjoy it more than Christmas! Some years I decorate and some years I don’t, but no matter what, I feel a festive creativity come over me each October that I just love. I …

Beauty and lifestyle Youtuber Brittany from GettingPretty, created this seriously epic Halloween makeup tutorial to recreate the fun Snapchat filter, which unfortunately isn’t available anymore, that allows you to vomit rainbows. I just love the creativity and cleverness of this as …
