Slingshot Costume from Roblox Phingting Video Game - Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

My son hasn’t been trick or treating for the last 4 years. He stopped at 9 years old, pretty young. Anyway, he decided to go this year since his friends invited him, but at the last minute! He needed a costume quick (notification just this past Tuesday night), but he didn’t want an off the rack outfit. Of course this Mama was a bit stressed but made it happen. Finished with only 2 hours before they were meeting up. So much work went into this costume! That slingshot had to be that big since v…

Tombstone Halloween Decorations - Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

I LOVE Halloween and this year I wanted to improve on the affordable dollar store tombstones I used last year. I’ve seen lots of tutorials that used wood, but I opted to used heavy duty boxes that we had from a recent delivery. Here’s what I came up to make them sturdier: 1.Cut out shapes to backup the existing styrofoam tombstones. [1000019640] [1000019641] Use duck tape to support shapes. [1000019848] Spray paint black. [1000019851] [1000019852] Used spray glue to adhere tom…

Cardboard and Duct Tape Knight Armor - Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

We went with a dungeon theme for our Halloween costumes this year. My daughter was a necromancer, my son was a noble cat (or a ghoul in a barrel depending on whether we were trick-or-treating or handing out candy), and my husband and I were their loyal knights in shining armor. My kids made their own costumes, so I am not posting them here, but I made I made our armor, without a pattern, entirely from cardboard and duct tape. It took less than three rolls of tape for both sets of armor. Our pole…

My entry for the Home & Garden board! It’s a cat in a pierrot costume and what’s more Halloween than costumes?

Le Chat Pierrot - Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

For the Motion Swap I wanted to do something completely different and challenging. @Sleepless-Ghost said she was up for whatever so I took her at her word and decided to make a balance toy based on art that she’d pinned. I said I wanted a challenge, I definitely got one. There were several times I was almost ready to give up in despair and make something else. Things just weren’t working. But I persisted and I’m super proud of the end result. [PSX_20261009_233651_1791607986212] [PSX_202610…

Beaded bat and moon-Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

[IMG_1857] [IMG_1842] These were made for the Halloween Swap. For both of them I started with an outline and stitched a chain over the outline. I used mostly larger faceted beads, with some silver spacer beads to fill in some of the gaps. With the bat, i also used some quite large silver beads, and star beads for the eyes. The crescent moon had more stars and smaller silver beads. In hindsight, i think the moon would have looked better (as in, more visible contrast) with a different color b…

Crochet checkered halloween purse-Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

For the Halloween Swap this year i had @momiemae who listed mackenzie childs as a style inspo. As soon as i googled that name, i fell in love with the checkered kitchy look of every single thing that popped up. Very inspiring. Since crochet is the most accessible craft I’ve come to do lately, i eventually found a crochet bag Tutorial, but man, the urge to paint random objects was strong. [IMG_1846] This is the final bag, where instead of crocheting the checkered strap the way the pattern cal…

Crochet pumpkin pillow/Halloween Spooktacular Entry 2026

[IMG_1419] For the Summerween swap my partner said she likes vintage themes so I found this pattern. It sort of reminds me of the pumpkin heads from Over the Garden Wall. It came together pretty easily, the only part I struggled with was attaching the back panel to the gusset, as well as being nervous about sewing the face on. I think I cut out 4 noses, and the cheeks never looked quite right to me. Here’s some assembly pics for nightmare fuel (lol) [IMG_1397] [IMG_1405] [IMG_1417]
