BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Halloween!  It seems like every year it becomes more and more popular.  The candy.  The decorating.  The costumes.  It's so much fun for us to share in the celebration of the season.  Post in as much or as little detail as you'd like.  

 

And since this is being posted a little early, there are some bonus questions at the end for you to post on now, or once you're suffering from Halloween withdrawal come November 1st!

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@alexasteph LOL

 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

10/24 creative ideas for leftover candy. 

Not unique but I worked in a hospital and it would bring it in for all the hard working Healthcare workers. 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@CorgiMommy  that's a great idea, I am sure they appreciated you thinking of them!

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Share a creative idea for left over candy

Hum... How about it all gets broken into pieces and you would mix it into milkshakes or ice cream. It would be like a crazy wild ride, the flavour would be different in every bite. 😅

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@CynthieLu that sounds so awesome

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Lol it could be, or real gnarly depending what your leftovers were. 🤗👻 @CorgiMommy 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

10/23: Most unique use for candy corn?  Eating it! 🤍💛🧡 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

So true @Titian06 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

10/22 unique use for candy corn.

Candy corn infused vodka  

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

That sounds good!! @CorgiMommy 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

It makes a sweeter Cosmo @lmaster 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Now that's interesting @CorgiMommy I can picture a really fun looking bottle for this too. 😆

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Me too @CynthieLu .  It is easy to make yourself.  All you need is a half cup candy corn, one and a half cups vodka .  Put it in a Mason jar and tightly close it for one week.  Strain out any candy pieces. 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Oof, I'm so behind 😓. I'm going to try to catch up in batches!

10/9: Best and worst Halloween textures?  Best - soft, cozy, cuddly, fluffy blankets, sweaters, and socks! Worst - spider webs! 🕸 Or anything slimy.

10/10: Favorite size/shape/color of pumpkins? All of them! Orange jack-o-lantern pumpkins, elegant white pumpkins, funky warty pumpkins, tiny cute pumpkins...

10/11: What Halloween party game sounds like fun?  And which would you never play? I don't think I've ever been to a Halloween party so I had to search Pinterest for ideas lol. Something creative/artistic like pumpkin decorating or making haunted houses out of cookies and candy sounds fun to me. I wouldn't want to play the gross "sensory" games where you stick your hand in a box or bowl with something squishy or slimey.

10/12: Apothecary, tarot cards, crystals - they're so "in" right now.  What ethereal things do you enjoy?  I like crystals but not because of any supernatural beliefs, I just think they're pretty. I have a bunch of amethyst crystals decorating my bedroom just because purple is my favorite color, lol.

10/13: What creeps you out? Spiders! I'm super arachnophobic, so even a picture of a spider gives me the wiggins 😰

10/14: Black cats crossing your path - good luck or bad luck?  Do you have any superstitions? Any cat crossing my path is good luck! And I can't really think of any superstitions that I genuinely believe. I do like making a wish if I notice when the clock is at 11:11, though.

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Spiders are so creepy @caitbird .yesterday I had one on my basement and no husband at home to kill it so I had to get rid of it myself.  Creeped my out but I did it!

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@CorgiMommy @caitbird @CynthieLu - That's what a cannister vacuum is for! 😝

 

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@Titian06 That's totally how I handle spiders!  I can't handle just squishing them.

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

Lol @Titian06 🤣

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@CorgiMommy @caitbird uuugh yes, spiders are the worst 😭 I can recall like so many times one has caught me unawares and just spooked the living right out of me. 👻 🪦

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

@CorgiMommy  good for you, I hate dealing with spiders!

Re: BIC's 2024 Countdown to Halloween Thread!!!

I have some catching up to do! I’ve been busy this last week. 

Oct. 19: I love Halloween themed decor and decoration, and don’t mind if it’s kitschy. If it makes sense and coordinates together, have at it!

 

Oct. 20: For holiday themed nail art, I usually stick to colors related to the season. During Halloween I’ve done black French tips which I thought looked really cool. Currently, however, my nails are bare because I haven’t had a chance to visit the salon in a while!

 

Oct. 21: Gothic, yes; goth, no. 

Oct. 22: I’m not sure how Halloween would change much, other than becoming more a part of a season as it is starting to shift that way.
