Yummy Mummys (aka Nutella Poptarts)✨

These little cuties are so easy to make!

Ingredients:
Premade Pie Crust (refrigerated)
Nutella
Butter
Candy eyes

To Make:
1. Roll out your pie crust and cut into rectangles.
2. Spread a small amount of Nutella (or similar) onto each rectangle.
3. Then, cut strips out of your remaining pie crust and crisscross over each rectangle, leaving room for candy eyes. Be sure to pinch the edges to avoid losing any Nutella!
4. Brush the tops with melted butter.
5. Bake at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
6. Let cool, add eyes and enjoy your yummy mummys! 😋

Spooky nails are my fave 🦇

Do you do seasonal nails? Or just stick to the basics? 💅🏻

Spooky BOOkshelves 👻

I love being extra and rotating Violet’s bookshelves for different holidays and seasons! It’s an easy way to bring a little extra cheer to her space and she gets so excited to see and read new books!

Do you rotate your children’s bookshelves for holidays?

Hey boo! 👻 It’s that time again to share some boo basket inspo with y’all! These are so much fun to surprise your kids with on October 1st so that they can enjoy the goodies all month long!

*Of course, yours does NOT need to be this elaborate but I love showcasing these small shops and finding fun things to give y’all ideas!

Ps, this was my first time doing two baskets… Grey absolutely didn’t need one but I couldn’t leave him out! 😅 How did I do boy mamas?!

My little boo👻

This was Violet’s outfit when she was 6 months old and now here we are at 2 months and it fits Grey perfectly. 🤣 They are the complete opposites when it comes to size and it’s so crazy to me!

Did anyone else have kids like this?! Also, swipe to see baby Violet… 🥺

Hey ghoul heyyyyy 👋🏻

Who remembers my DIY pumpkin from last year?! It was one of my favorite projects and super easy. I just painted a pumpkin and added vinyl that I cut on my @cricut + some plastic spiders. I can’t wait to share this year’s pumpkin! What do y’all think I’ll do?! 😉✨

Halloween Playhouse Reveal ✨

I can’t believe I talked myself into painting Violet’s playhouse door purple but I am HERE FOR IT! 🙌🏻 I had so much fun decorating it for Halloween and her little reaction is always priceless. 🥺

For the door, I used @behrpaint in the color “party hat” and it’s the prettiest shade of purple! I used my @cricut to cut the stars and simply stuck them on in my desired pattern. The little sign was a @dollartree diy that I made last year. I cut the letters with chipboard on my @cricut (tutorial can be found on my blog). The balloons are a kit from @chercandoit and were the perfect finishing touch for the grand reveal! All other sources are tagged in the photo. 😊

So what’s your favorite part?! Do you love it as much as I do!?

Be sure to check out these other ladies for some major spooky playhouse inspo!👻

Neighbor BOOze Basket👻

Ever heard of booing your neighbor?! It’s this really fun way to bring some Halloween cheer to your neighborhood where you anonymously leave a Halloween-themed surprise at their door. Instead of a typical neighbor boo basket, I opted for a BOOze basket this time! It ended up looking like an #occasionsbin but it totally works for either. This could also make a really fun hostess gift if you’re not fond of your neighbors! 🤪

Have you ever booed your neighbor or made a BOOze basket?!👻

Spooky Boho Wreath✨

I am so in love with how this DIY wreath turned out! My goal was to use lots of texture so I used a grapevine wreath as my base and stuck various floral picks in it. Then, I added in some spooky elements like skeletons and bats. When I was happy with the placement, I spray painted it all with my favorite @rustoleum spray paint in rustic pink. Once dry, I added in mini disco balls(@dollartree), pampas(@michaelsstores), velvet pumpkins(@hobbylobby), and butterflies(@dollartree). It was actually super inexpensive and simple and I am so proud of how it turned out! 😍

What do y’all think?! Have you made a wreath before?

Throw back to last year’s boo basket👻

I’ll be sharing boo baskets in a few weeks so I thought I’d repost last year’s for those who might not be familiar with them. It’s basically a fun basket filled with Halloween goodies that you give your kids on October 1st to enjoy all month long! Yes, it’s totally extra and not necessary but I love it! 👻

Do you do boo baskets?! What do you put in them? ✨

Dollar Tree Haunted House Glow Up✨

I found these two haunted house wood cut outs @dollartree and had a vision for a 3D peg doll house. The smaller house had a base so I hot glued the two together so that it would stand upright on its own. Then, I just added all of the spooky cute details!

This would be a really fun and inexpensive project to make on your own or let you kids decorate! Be sure to tag me in your creations if you try it! 😊

We recently made the switch to @lovetodreamusa when Grey started breaking out of his traditional swaddle and it has been a total game changer! #ad

The snug fit of the Love to Dream™ Essentials SWADDLE UP™ makes your baby feel secure and helps to calm their natural startle reflex. The best part is that @lovetodreamusa has made it easier than ever to provide a complete solution to new parents by partnering with @walmart to release their new Love to Dream Essentials Range, which includes both the Love to Dream SWADDLE UP™ and Love to Dream™ Transition Bag! Select sizes available in select Walmart stores or on Walmart.com. #LoveToDreamXWalmart #LoveToDreamEssentials #lovetodreampartner

Ghost Glow Up Challenge 👻

Back in July, I found this cutie @homegoods and knew he needed a little makeover. Since then, he’s been staring at me just waiting for his big debut! I kept it pretty simple and made him a garland and hat with felt. The letters and stars are cut out of glitter paper from @michaelsstores and I added mini pompoms that I made with my mini pompom maker. Super simple but makes him 10x cuter! 😍

What do y’all think!? My friend @amandaescoe redid a ghost too! Be sure to go and check hers out!! 👻
