Halloween and costumes have never been my favorite. However, seeing the holiday through the eyes of my Two Year Old has been pretty fun this year. When we started asking him at the beginning of the month what he’d like to be for Halloween, he hesitated exactly 2 seconds before explaining he wanted to be a Yellow Monster. Where this conviction and idea came from, I’ve yet to discover, but, he had a clear vision in mind for a Yellow Monster Costume, and I was thrilled to help bring his vision to life.

I’m not a Halloween person. The last time I dressed up for Halloween was the weekend I met my husband 8 years ago. I love Autumn and October, but, Halloween has never been my jam. Having a two year old, however, overrides my aversions to costumes and spooky themes. This kiddo is digging all the Festivities and Decorations surrounding All Hallow’s Eve. This Ghost Garland craft was one that ticked the boxes on my list (cute, yarn, simple) and was a fun way to celebrate the upcoming Holiday with the kiddo.

Introducing a mail organizer was a huge help for our household, and making it a cute rustic piece didn’t hurt!
