What I love about this treasury is the use of orange and black in a non-Halloween way. Yet, it still feels like a Halloween collection. Brilliantly done, Eco Shag, brilliantly done!

Theme Of The Week: Halloween, Part II.
We'd be silly to pass up the perfect chance to extend our Halloween theme for yet another week. After all, as is the case in Hollywood, sequels make Halloween spook-tacular!

Psycho For Halloween.
I have a Halloween confession to make. Despite my passion for scary movies, I've never actually seen "Psycho". Maybe someone should send me this card, from Creeper Jess, as a reminder.

Like A Bat Outta Hell.
Bats scare me. Perhaps it's their link to vampires--or maybe it's simply their creepy faces! Whatever it is, I don't want their weird wings anywhere near me.
I wouldn't mind this ultra-cute bat print, from LaBerge though. His face isn't creepy, nor his wings weird. In fact, he looks kinda happy. And that's what Halloween is all about.

Halloween Meets The Wizard Of Oz.
We're loving this Etsy front page treasury from Jody, aka, Blackbird Tees. Such a clever mix of Halloween-themed items within the "The Wizard Of Oz" vein. Way to go Jody!

Theme Of The Week: Halloween.
Season 2 of "The Walking Dead" is upon us. And that means it's time to gear up for a barrage of gruesome zombie deaths!
Admittedly, it took us a while to get excited about Halloween. But now, we're officially ready to be scared! So bring on the werewolves, vampires, ghosts and of course, zombies!

Orange Fall Blitz.
Today's finds were featured in one of Jody's recent Etsy treasuries. I like the subtle orange touch--easier on the eyes than the typical all-out pumpkin bonanza. Mostly though, I like the fact that her treasury was titled, "Mod Pumpkin". That's just plain cute!

Bloody Skulls? I Do.
A few years back, friends of ours surprised us (and other partygoers) by putting on an impromptu Halloween wedding. I'm thinking that these bloody skull lollipops would've been the perfect post-nuptial delight!
