This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of 7UP® and Sunkist®. The opinions and text are all mine. If you guys have been hanging around the blog for a while now, you know that Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday of the year. I go all out and try to cram in…

Black Licorice Ice Cream Spiders
The witching hour is almost upon us, and what am I doing? Making ice cream. Black licorice ice cream, to be exact. I was never really a fan of black licorice until I got older. I feel like one day I just woke up and started liking it. Weird? Maybe. But either way, I’m sold…
Jack O’ Lantern Caramel Apples
Halloween desserts will be the death of me. Actually, any holiday desserts are. I always get sucked into their cuteness and the idea of creating new traditions that end up with me eating way more sugar than I originally planned for. (But, what’s new around here?) Case is point…? These Jack O’ Lantern caramel apples!
DIY Beaker Candles
Beakers, flasks, tongs, bunsen burners, test tubes, and clamps. All things that you can find in a chemistry class, or a mad scientist’s laboratory! And what’s more Halloween-ish than bubbling beakers and crazy concoctions? Not much if you do them right! If you plan on crafting the perfect laboratory for your halloween event or just plan…
Halloween Floral Arrangement
I’ve been doing a lot of Halloween shopping lately, as I always do around this time, and I recently stumbled upon the CUTEST witches cauldron ceramic container at Michael’s Craft Store. Of course, I snatched it up and began envisioning all of the things I could do with it. At the top of my list…?…
Chocolate Body Parts
Halloween is the perfect time to creep out your friends, family, and party guests. It’s the season that we celebrate serial killers, terrifying ghosts, and lots of blood. Whether cute or down right scary, it’s a month filled with all of the things that we usually try to avoid throughout the rest of the year. And…
DIY Pipe Candelabra
There is definitely a place for blood, guts, and the usual Halloween garb and decor, but sometimes going the simpler route with minimal decor can be just as effective for the creep factor. Basic elements, in neutral palettes, add to a sterile feeling in all the right uncomfortable Halloween ways. I think it reminds me of…
DIY Spider Pumpkins
I love good Halloween decor. I’ve always wanted to become one of those home haunters that create their own props and a full on haunted house in their yards. Unfortunately for me, the hubs has vetoed that idea pretty quickly. Lighting effects, special effects blood, and cobwebs, of course, all make the holiday so festive…
Oogie Boogie Halloween Cocktail
One of my favorite movies to watch to kick off the Halloween season is The Nightmare Before Christmas. What are some of your favorites? I guess it really could go either way for both holidays, but I’m still partial to it for Halloween. Jack and Sally are the best Halloween characters and really seemed to…
Halloween Bone Invitation
October is here and I am so ready to deck out the blog with all things creepy, spooky, scary, and fun! Halloween is my favorite month and I like to go big with everything and emerse myself in the horrer filled month. It’s definitely not for everyone, but I hope that along the next few weeks,…
