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!!!

If you could go to a themed Halloween Party, what would you like to see everyone wear?

@greeneyedgirl107 I love this question! But it's revealing my sci-fi leanings. 😅 Hands down I am picking Doctor Who! 

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

@CynthieLu my friend went to a Doctor Who themed wedding!

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

That's to cool! @greeneyedgirl107 I love it! Did she dress up too?

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

@CynthieLu I don't think so.

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

10/29: If you could go to a themed costume party, what would you like to see everyone wear?  Parties and costumes are not my thing. 😝

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

10/29. If you could go to a themed costume party, what would you like you see everyone wear?

Classic cartoons,  it would be like Saturday morning of my childhood.  Yogi Bear, Fred Flintstone, Judy Jetson, etc. walking around would be so much fun.  I would be either Boo Boo Bear or  Roadrunner .

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

@CorgiMommy - I may not like parties or costumes, but I could probably bring myself to wear a pair of cat ears and my animal print top in imitation of Josie. 😁🐾🐈

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

That is a good one @Titian06 

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

10/28: Best Halloween sayings?  I love trick or treating so that's what I'm going with!

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

Sounds good to me, @Samtian ! 🎃👻🧡🖤

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

10/28: Best Halloween sayings?. The only Halloween saying I know is "Trick or Treat."  I thought I would see what I could find on Google.  I thought, "How true!" when I saw this one:

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

So true @Titian06 

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

October 28- Best Halloween Sayings 

I can't think of any... just  maybe Trick or Treat.

Only jokes come to mind that we typically tell at Halloween 🎃😜

 

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

10/28:  Favorite Halloween quote.

From Hocus Focus- “It's a full moon tonight. That's why all the weirdos are out.”—Dani

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

Great movie! @CorgiMommy 

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

10/25: Best animal to chill with on Halloween night?

My black cat Magic 😻

 

10/26: Orange: is it an under-rated color? What's your favorite shade? How best to use it for decorating, fashion, beauty?

I actually love orange 🧡 I think neon orange is gorgeous 

 

10/27: If you were to cast a spell, what would it be? What would you stir in your cauldron? What would your magic wand be like? 

if I were to cast a spell it would be on mean kids that still bully, they would grow whiskers and tails and resemble rats lol.

 

I would stir in my cauldron if it's needed for the spell 

 

My magic wand of course would be covered in sparkly glitter and rhinestones

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

If you were to cast a spell, what would it be?  What would you stir in your cauldron?  What would your magic wand be like?

A kindness spell. The world seems to be becoming more about me me me instead of looking out for others. I would stir good smelling stuff into my cauldron. My wand would be hmm...maybe something like an aspen or oak with a fancy black and white crystal on it. 

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

Oct. 27: My husband and I always say “Accio Jeep!” when we’re walking out to the parking lot of whichever store or establishment we’re leaving, so probably that one. 

My cauldron is definitely filled with iced coffee, and my wand is probably a straw from one of my many, many drinking vessels or tumblers. 

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

10/26 is orange an under rated color?  What's your favorite shade?  How best to use it for decorating, fashion, beauty?

I love orange especially the more burnt orange.   I have a few orange sweaters for the fall that I love.  I love mixing orange with navy or brown this time of year.

 

10/27: If you were to cast a spell, what would it be?  What would you stir in your cauldron?  What would your magic wand be like?

For those facing cancer to recover as I did a few years ago.  My cauldron would be filled with cosmos.  My magic wand would be a ski pole, can't wait for winter sports to start!

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

10/27: If you were to cast a spell, what would it be?  To be understanding of those who are different from you.

 

What would you stir in your cauldron?  Black beans and rice.

 

What would your magic wand be like? Something like this:

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

Oct. 26: I do struggle with orange a bit, and actually the reason they chose orange for Anxiety in Inside Out 2 is because true orange can actually be anxiety inducing for some, which is why you see true orange very rarely. It’s not really a color I gravitate to on its own.

 

That said, I do like burnt orange and coral quite a bit. Burnt in the fall, coral in the summer. I need my oranges to lean more red or pink for sure. Many of my shirts and tops are in the burnt orange or coral shade range. 

 

Decor for my home follows the same principle, lots of fall burnt oranges or summer corals. Of course, I have to mention my house tiger again, he seems to be getting a lot of shout outs!
