FUN FACT….

Halloween is the second most celebrated holiday of the entire year! Christmas still holds the number one spot but seriously (????) Halloween has out -spotted Thanksgiving in the scheme of holiday celebrations!?  THAT is making quite a statement.

Halloween’s style quota  has exploded in terms of  Halloween costumes available for ADULTS, massive and might I add outlandish Halloween parties, and indoor and outdoor decor.

And….speaking of holiday decor..did you get the memo that carving pumpkins  is no more. At the very least there seems to be a major push to paint your pumpkins and if you have the artistic skills of Picasso-well all the better. I could not believe my eyes when I came upon this assortment of pumpkins that would be perfect for porch display.

If you’re looking to put down your pumpkin carving knife and paint a fantastical design this Halloween, here are a few  painted pumpkin options that I hope  will inspire.

Everyone loves Halloween. Did you know that Halloween is the  second most popular holiday only outnumbered by Christmas. THAT is some serious holiday love.

Here in LA, they  close an entire boulevard down smack dab in the middle of West Hollywood and have a parade. Now just between you and I, they may call it a “parade” but reallllly it’s a costume extravaganza to beat all other costume parties on the planet.  I’m not one to partake in this event because quite frankly I am over 30 and don’t care to be stuck in gridlock traffic for 3-4 hours. For those that do partake- I say: “Enjoy and parade away.” It’s Halloween and what a treat to see people so happy about the SECOND most celebrated holiday of the year.

It’s always good to have options.
