We're Ready for Halloween!

I know, I know...we're not even through September yet and I'm talking about October and Halloween. But I'm super excited this year as Ilah is older and she can have a little fun getting dressed up and toting her Halloween treat bag around ; )

Towards the beginning of the year, my mother-in-law bought Ilah a Halloween outfit on clearance at Dillards after Halloween was over. It's not a "costume" per say, but it's a cute little cat outfit and it's warm, which is most important since it will be pretty cool at night on Halloween in our neck of the woods {that kinda sounds like we live in the sticks where the nearest porch light will be one hundred miles away} - but you know what I mean...the nigh time weather in October will be a bit cold.

There will be plenty of years ahead of us where Ilah will want to choose her own costume but this year, she will be wearing this little outfit....

Yesterday I made Ilah this hair bow to wear with it....

I spotted this super cute treat bag at Homegoods a few weeks back and thought it was so cute and the perfect size for Ilah to carry around Halloween night. She's really into carrying things and this darling bag couldn't have been more perfect, and it's super light since it's made out of cloth....

It was only $3.99!....

Back to the bow, I pulled from the colors on the goody bag and made it to match....

Our church will be having a night of fun for the kids on Halloween. I remember going to these at my church when I was little girl. They referred to them as a "Harvest Festival". Having a child brings back so many memories and I just love making special memories with our little girl!

I've been getting some emails asking when I would be adding new bows to my Etsy shop. My big coupon promotion that I did last month just about wiped out my inventory. With school back in session, Breast Cancer Awareness month coming up, and Halloween around the corner, I added these bows - and more like them - to my shop today....

Slowly but surely I'll be adding in more cute every day frilly pieces like this one, which I just put in today...
