Fall is my favorite time of year! Not only do I love the season and all of the approaching Holidays, but it is also a time that fills me with creative energy. I am already working on Christmas presents and Halloween hasn’t even arrived! I am, however, actively looking up amazing Halloween ideas for you and will be compiling lists of my absolute favorite costumes, wigs, hats, masks, and decorations that are not only FREE but should also be easy enough to finish in time for Trick-or-Treating.
Halloween is definitely all about the kids so that’s what today’s TOP HALLOWEEN PICKS for KIDS will cover (20 TOTAL!!!).
I’ve always loved Red Riding Hood, probably because I love RED… so you can imagine just how pleased I was to find this adorable cape AND wolf hat inspired by the fairytale. The pattern is available HERE from Red Heart Yarns.

The ever popular MARIO & LUIGI! Not only are these hats awesome, but finding a Mario or Luigi hat is not easy (surprisingly, I’ve tried). Add some thrift store overalls and a red or green t-shirt and you’ve got a great, inexpensive costume! These are from Laura Michels and are available HERE.
