Halloween is almost here! 

I read a great article yesterday on trick-or-treating, and how old is too old for your kids to be putting on costumes and getting candy. Part of the article talked about a community in Kentucky where their Halloween celebration is a community thing. The college kids come home, do some trick-or-treating of their own and then go downtown and help with the littles and the celebration. I absolutely loved it! 

My daughter is 15 and will be going trick-or-treating with us this weekend. She still loves it. I want her to be a kid as long as she can. Childhood is over far too quickly. And I would rather the teenagers be out trick-or-treating with their friends then out partying or doing who knows what! So when you have those older kids come to your door (and are being respectful and kind!) remember that a candy bar is an easy thing to give for a little bit of happiness!

Okay. Now some easy DIY's! 



Save Your Pumpkins

#Protip - Spray your pumpkin and gourds down with Thieves Cleaner and they will last you all season long and then some! When we carve ours I spray inside too! Helps a lot. Especially here where it is still hot outside. 1 capful for a 16 oz. bottle of water. Super cheap!

Fall Scents

There are SO MANY different diffuser blends out there. You can google away or search in Living Raindrops. But here is a good list of fall type oils that make good blends. Get some of these and practice and create! One of my standard smells that I use a lot is Thieves and Orange. 

 


Much love!
