Show Off Your Love of Your Favourite Show with Netflix-Inspired DIY Halloween Costumes

October 19, 2016 by Kathryn 3 Comments

I’ve always been a fan of all the different holidays, and Halloween is a special favourite. I love creating fun homemade decorations, dressing up and handing out candy to the neighbourhood kids. And my boys love the fun of trick-or-treating and dressing up in fun costumes just as much! Last year, we took our costume inspiration from Avengers Assemble on Netflix Canada for our costumes and dressed as Iron Man, Captain America and Black Widow.

This year, both my boys have taken their costume inspiration from video games rather than television but personally, I’m thinking dressing up as Eleven from Stranger Things would be a fun and easy DIY costume choice! A pink dress, an oversized jean jacket, a white-blonde wig and sports socks would be all I needed to showcase this character from my new favourite Netflix exclusive series. Looking for a little inspiration for your own child’s look? Check out these three fun and easy DIY Netflix-inspired costume ideas! [Read more…]

Decorate for Halloween with Two Easy DIY Crafts and Earn Double RBC Reward Points at Home Depot

October 14, 2016 by Kathryn 16 Comments

Halloween has always been one of my favourite holidays. I love the costumes, the decorations and the fun spooky spirit of the season. So I also love creating DIY décor for the yard to get everyone into the Halloween spirit! This year, we don’t have a whole lot of space to decorate since the front yard of our townhouse is fairly small. So with my RBC Rewards Credit Card in hand, I headed to The Home Depot Canada to stock up on supplies for a few easy decorations for small spaces…giant garbage bag spiders and glowing chicken wire ghosts!

With two times reward points for RBC Rewards Credit Card holders in Saskatchewan and Alberta on all purchases from The Home Depot Canada until the end of October, the timing was perfect for grabbing my supplies. I bought PVC pipe, elbow connecters, black spray paint, glow-in-the-dark spray paint and both one and two-inch chicken fencing. Then I added a cute plastic jack-o-lantern that plugged into the wall as a fun finishing touch! With my supplies in hand, it was time to get creative. [Read more…]

Find the Top Costumes for Families at Costume Express

October 21, 2015 by Kathryn 15 Comments

Halloween is just ten days away and if you’re still looking for the perfect costume, why not make the celebration a family affair? Costume Express has some great ideas for themed family costumes and since The Avengers: Age of Ultron movie came out this summer, superhero-themed costumes are sure to be a popular pick.

My youngest son received a Captain America costume about a month ago for his birthday and since that meant we already had the start of a theme, my oldest son and I decided to choose coordinating costumes. Luckily, Costume Express was there to help with an Avengers Iron Man costume for Zackary and a Black Widow costume for me! [Read more…]

Halloween is Healthier with Go Gourmet Squoosh Fruit Pouches-Giveaway

October 6, 2015 by Kathryn 126 Comments

In just a few weeks, one of my very favourite holidays will be arriving…Halloween! I’m notorious for going overboard with food, decorations and treats during almost every holiday celebration, but Halloween has always been one of my personal favourites. Custom tombstones, creative costumes and more help to make the day one that my boys and I anticipate for weeks in advance.

But there’s no doubt that all the candy involved in the holiday isn’t necessarily the healthiest choice for little ones. And I learned years ago that switching up those treats for something different, and ideally healthier, isn’t disappointing for little ones at all. In fact, they often get extra excited about getting a more original addition to their treat bag!
