Handmade Halloween – Make it Special This Year

The leaves are starting to turn yellow, the nights are already cold, the days are getting shorter.. It’s fall time, and that means that Halloween is soon!

I wanted to share a few cute handmade Halloween finds I found mainly at Etsy. Just adding cute accessories can make the whole outfit. Many handmade products are made to order, and if you wish to have any of these special items for this Halloween, I suggest ordering as soon as possible to ensure Halloween deliver!

This Halloween – be creative, and get accessories that can be used even after Halloween is over.



Twinkle-Kids Spooky Felt House ($59) will provide endless hours of non-messy “baking” time. Halloween fun guaranteed even for the rainy days.



Get into Halloween spirit with this Halloween ghost hair clip – your little girl can make a statement for only $2.



Custom hand painted and embroidered Converse Chuck Taylors, $59,99.

The shoes are not just meant for walking – they will rock any outfit, anytime. The designer also makes custom shoes to match any outfit, so even if the skulls are not in the plans for this Halloween, make sure to check out MamiGirlBoutique

He wants to be the Spiderman?

Give a little spin to the cartoon character outfits, and choose something little more special. This Custom Spider Superhero Cape, $20, is customized with your child’s initial and will be a treasured in the role-play after Halloween is way over.

    I love this list! What inspiration! I’ve actually fashioned my baby girl’s costume from an old dress my mom saved of mine (!) and a sun bonnet she bought at a fabric shop in Amish country! She’s going to be Laura from “Little House on the Prairie!”

    But that felt house is just to die for!
