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!!!

Happy Halloween! I can’t believe November is already here!

 

It isn’t Halloween without walking around neighborhoods disguised and soliciting strangers into giving tiny kids free candy. 👍

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

It isn’t Halloween 🎃 without this amazing BIC thread, thank you bunches @greeneyedgirl107 

 

Happy Halloween Yall ❤️

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

@peculiarzmakeup happy to do it!

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

10/23: Most unique use for candy corn?

Idk about most unique, but I like this Thanksgiving cupcake decor idea from Pinterest:

10/24: Share creative ideas for leftover candy. Hmm, donate it? Host a candy swap party? Idk, I don't usually have leftover candy 😅

 

10/25: Best animal to chill with on Halloween night? my kitties, of course!

10/26: Orange: is it an under-rated color?  What's your favorite shade?  How best to use it for decorating, fashion, beauty? I do think orange is an underrated color, it's definitely not my personal favorite but there are some shades I like. I tend to prefer shades like coral, peach, pumpkin and burnt orange rather than bright or neon orange. I think orange usually works best as an accent color, maybe paired with golden yellows or navy blues.

 

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 could cast any spell, it would be to make people more empathetic and kind towards others. My cauldron would probably be full of tea (or maybe hot chocolate!) And I actually have a magic wand, I got it from etsy just for fun:

10/28: Best Halloween sayings?  I don't think I know any Halloween sayings! Unless "trick or treat" counts lol

 

10/29: If you could go to a themed costume party, what would you like to see everyone wear? I think a Victorian or Regency (Jane Austen) era costume party would be fun!

 

10/30: Best mischievous thing to do for Halloween. Idk, I guess I am not really the mischievous type.

 

10/31: Finish this sentence: It isn't Halloween without ______. Candy, pumpkins, and BIC's Countdown to Halloween thread!

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

Still catching up, so here is another chunk of prompts (I'll post the rest tomorrow!):

10/15: Post a Halloween-inspired meme.

I Googled "Halloween meme cat" and this is what came up:

trying to be social when you're an introvert loltrying to be social when you're an introvert lol

 

10/16: What villains do you secretly root for? I definitely have a soft spot for anti-heroes, but I am not one to root for evil characters really.

 

10/17: What Halloween scent would you love to be turned into a spray-able fragrance? Hmm, I love pumpkin, apple, and other gourmand scents, but I think I prefer them as candles, rather than perfumes I would wear.

 

10/18: Post your own prompt. What songs are on your (real or hypothetical) Halloween playlist? Mine includes:

This Is Halloween - from The Nightmare Before Christmas

I Put a Spell On You by Bette Midler - from Hocus Pocus

Strange Love by Karen O - from Frankenweenie

Season of the Witch by Lana del Rey

 

10/19: Sound off on Halloween kitsch! Idk, for me I think it really depends on the specific thing. I would say I'm not that much of a fan of kitsch overall, but there are definitely exceptions.

 

10/20: What Halloween nail art would you love to wear? I just got these from Olive & June - planning to put them on tonight!20241030_074507_capture-01.jpeg

Aren't they cute? 

 

10/21: Gothic style: yay or nay? Gothic, yes, goth, not so much.

 

10/22: What do you think Halloween will look like in the future?  Hmm, you know, I really have no idea! I feel like I'm not very good at predicting the future, lol. I guess "trunk or treating" is the new (or at least new-ish to me) thing a lot of towns are doing now. And who knows, maybe someday people will trick or treat with an app or something 🤣
