Top 10 Etsy Halloween Picks

Ghost and gobblins, tricks and treats, from kids to adults, everyone loves Halloween. I have always loved Halloween and still do! Etsy sellers offer a huge assortment of Halloween related items and I narrowed it down to my favorite 10. It was hard to choose with there being so many amazing things. Rather you're handing out candy, dressing up, horrifying your home, or having a party, there is something here for everyone!

This frightening wreath will be fabulous greeting little ghost at your door. I love how the tiny skulls are nestled upon shiny orange and black tinsel garland and the black bow ties it all together. From the Etsy shop of thechicadeeshop.

Someone show up to your fright night party without a costume? No worries, toss them a vintage mask and they're good to go. This is an awesome (and colorful) assortment of vintage Halloween masks from the Etsy shop of Plantdreaming.

Nothing says "ghost in the house" more than a Ouija board. This is the only real vintage Ouija board I could find on Etsy so grab it before it's gone and talk to those on the other side! From the Etsy shop of lookinglasshouse.

Whose fingers? I don't think we really need to know! If you've got dirty hands, clean them with these scarily fantastic finger soaps from the Etsy shop of ajsweetsoap. These would also make a great hostess gift or door prize!

I absolutely adore this pumpkin hat for any little one. Keep those little heads warm in this hat from KarlenKnits on Etsy. Grab your little one an orange sweat suit and voila, instant costume!

Don't these just look so tasty! Grab yourself a dozen of these Halloween inspired sugar cookies from the Etsy shop of TSCookies. You get two of each of these terrifyingly delicious cookies.

BOO! Sorry, I didn't mean to spook you. Place these fun and festive blocks on a shelve, mantel, or table and help your ghost get his words out! From the Etsy shop of YourCraftyFriends.

I bet those anxious little hands will think twice before grabbing candy from this gruesome bowl. Made to look like a jawbone this ceramic bowl looks amazingly life-like, especially the teeth! From the Etsy shop of MotherMacabre.

Creepy crawly and dangling from your ears, these silver spider earrings look as though they are spinning their webs right from your ears! From the Etsy shop of BeadsInTheBelfry.

Let the ghost know they're welcome at your home by hanging this cheesecloth banner that reads "GHOST". Your mind will have to wonder, is it the breeze blowing this in the wind or something more? You may never know! From the Etsy shop of funkyshique.

Items listed are in no certain order!

Hey everyone! So we are officially done with Summer and moving into Fall, my favorite time of year! The holidays are quickly approaching. Halloween is only a few weeks away, then Thanksgiving, then Christmas. A lot of people have started to buy Christmas gifts since the economy is still uneasy and the idea of waiting until the first of December to start buying everything seems a bit out there. I'm getting my shop geared up for the holiday season and I will be trying (key word, trying) to add new items each week. I will also be offering promos. Right now my promo is a BOGO sale (yes yes I love bogo sales). When you buy any switch plate cover you can purchase the matching outlet cover upgrade for only $2.50!Visit my Etsy shop here.

News From Both of My Etsy Shops

My unsold patterns will be donated to a local thrift store for someone else to find! You can visit my shop, Patterns4All on Etsy for some GREAT deals. Check out Patterns4All on Etsy!

My main shop She's Chic Boutique on Etsy has some great new items. I've added some new switch plates that are covered in some awesome fabrics and there's something for everyone.

She sales awesome fabrics and if you find something in her shop that you would like a switch plate in, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will get working with you to create exactly what you want. Of course, if you find a fabric you like elsewhere on Etsy just convo me or email me directly at cms_36451@yahoo.com and I would love to work with you!

Go Pink

Oh how I love pink. Which is probably why I chose it as my wedding colors. I actually chose to use light pink and a darker or hot pink. My fiance's groomsmen will boast coordinating black tuxes with light pink vest and ties and darker pink boutonnieres and my bridesmaids will wear dark pink dresses. I found my wedding dress yesterday! It's an amazing dress. So in celebration of my upcoming wedding this post is dedicated to everything pink. Here are some great "pink" finds.


These pink chrysanthemum earrings are so cute. They have so much detail in ever little petal and the bright pink color is just popping with excitement. These can be found in the Etsy shop of dangsworld.


Every girl loves herself some great bath products. I know I sure do. What better to lather your body in than pink buttercream scented body polish. Mmmm how delightful that must be. Pick yourself or a girl friend one of these up today in the Etsy shop of CozyMoments.



These cookies look almost (almost) too good to eat. These would be the perfect addition to any wedding or bridal shower. I would love to have these at my wedding and this one is all ready ready for my big day with the B on it. :) Check out these and more edible goodies in the Etsy shop of cakeboxcookies.



Paper pom pom's are the new thing. You can find them in kits from Wal Mart to Michael's. Martha Stewart is even selling paper pom pom kits now. These dainty paper pom pom flowers are situated on a silver wires. These would add a girly touch to any room. I could really see them placed in a milk glass vase. These are from the Etsy shop of PomLove.



And from my own shop is this lovely fabric covered switch plate cover. This switch plate has been covered in Michael Millers Dandy Damask fabric in pink. This switch plate will add an instant update to any room at an affordable price. Find this and more in my Etsy shop cms36451.


These just might be the cutest hang tags I've ever seen. These are great for attaching to Easter gifts. Each pink bunny has been hand stamped on an oatmeal color hang tagged and then pink glitter and pom pom's were added. Those pink pom pom tails are the cutest things! These probably won't last long so go over to the Etsy shop of jillzabell and grab them before they're gone.

Throw A St. Patrick's Day Party At Home!

Hi all. Wow, I've been slow posting the last few weeks. I had a blast at Mardi Gras! It was toooooo much fun. Now it's time to move on to St. Patrick's Day. Rather your Irish or not, it doesn't matter. It's just another reason to have an awesome party and drink a lot. Here are some great Etsy finds to help you have an even better party! May you and yours have the luck of the Irish!


These great green cups are perfect for your St. Patty's Day festivities. These are vintage Anchor Hocking glasses. Grab this set of four from the Etsy shop of cutfromthesamecloth.



These little shamrock stickers are perfect for any St. Patricks Day party. Use them as shown on the bottom of some Hershey's kisses for your guest or as envelope seals for your party invites. For only $3 you will get 3 sheets of these, totaling 72 from the Etsy shop of letterhappy.



Make your friends green with envy with this stylish spreader. Use it at your party to make your buffet all the more interesting or take it as a gift for the hostess. This and more lovelies can be found in the Etsy shop of Beadz2Pleaz.



Napkins, napkins, napkins, you can NEVER for any reason have too many napkins. Spruce up your party with these green napkins. And guess what? They can even be embossed with your name. Pick up a set of 50 in the Etsy shop of terequade.


You will definitely need those napkins to catch these crumbs. For only $10 you can grab yourself (and guest of course) 1 dozen of these enticing green shamrock cookies. You can find these and more edible goodies in the Etsy shop of MariaElenaEvents.

Get Ready For Spring!

I just love Spring time. The breezy air, sunshine, birds chirping, flowers blooming, it is all so beautiful. Today in Alabama it was almost 80 and I felt like we skipped Spring and went straight into Summer. Here are some beautiful items from Etsy that are sure to get you in the mood for Spring. I know we all look forward to warmer weather!


This makes me wish I had wings and fly in for a visit. This sweet little bird house has been painted a rustic blue and has a rusty little metal roof. This and more wonderful bird houses can be found in the Etsy shop of baconsquarefarm. She also has some bird house garden stakes I really liked.



I love wind chimes. Just hearing them "sing" with each breeze that passes bring me much joy. The beautiful green glass and copper chimes of this piece go so lovely together. Grab a set today and hang on your porch or in a tree. From the Etsy shop of tskDesign.


Perhaps Spring time makes you want to get outside and get your hands a little dirty. If so you should certainly grab some of these Zinnia seeds and watch your flowers grow. Zinnias make beautiful arrangements. You get 100 seeds for only $2.00 and once you cut some off new ones will come! From the Etsy shop of RathburnSmithFarms.


Of course all of those Zinnias will need some water! So grab yourself an adorable mosaic frog watering can. He is just so cute. I would suggest leaving him out for all to see, unlike those plain watering cans we tend to hide away in the storage shed. From the Etsy shop of artsyphartsy.


No flower bed or flower pot should be without it's own stake. What a lovely stake this is. The beautiful teal and coral colors of this copper stake go so well together. Adorn your garden with one of these lovelies from the Etsy shop of jangeisenGardenArt.


Hungry for more? Sure you are. Forget going to the market for corn, plant your own. I love sweet corn cooked on the grill. It is so yummy! Simply butter it, add a dash of salt and pepper, wrap in foil, and cook on the frill for about 30 minutes. Absolute goodness! Organic sweet corn seeds are from the Etsy shop of HomegrownHealthy. And guess what? This is a PIF, only 20 cents for 25 seeds.
