We decided to make goodie bags for our trick-or-treaters this year. These goodie bags are something we would have LOVED to get while trick-or-treating as kids, and they are also a good option for the teal pumpkin project. Another great thing is that most of the stuff is from the Dollar Tree! 💵

10 Halloween Lists to Write in your Bullet Journal
We’re here with another bullet journal post for you today. Here are ten different Halloween themed list ideas to write down in your bullet journal!
DIY Insect Faux Taxidermy
I know with every DIY post we say something like “this is our favorite, cheapest, most simple DIY yet!”. But it’s actually true for this one! It’s a gorgeous DIY that’s perfect for Halloween, but it can also be a great decoration for any time of the year! There are only two simple steps to make it, and it costs about $2 to make!
DIY Halloween Wreath
We were at Joann’s earlier, and we saw this gorgeous wreath:
But it was $50! For us that’s just too much to pay for a wreath. It’ll probably be on a huge sale by the time we post this, but surely not for as cheap as our DIY version!
Spooky Snack Taste Test
This is basically a part two of our pumpkin spice taste test post, but we’ve got a few things to try that aren’t pumpkin flavored this time! (Most of the snacks aren’t spooky, just pumpkin flavored. But seasonal snack taste test didn’t have the same ring to it.)
$1 DIY Skull Planter
Here’s one of our favorite DIYs we’ve done this season! A skull planter that is so easy, and only costs $1 to make! Plus the cost of your plant, of course. And paint, but we’re just assuming that you have some kind of paint in your house. So just $1! You also don’t have to use this as a planter! You can keep makeup brushes, pens and pencils, or whatever in it!
Haunted Gingerbread House
We made a haunted gingerbread house and some spooky gingerbread men to go with it! Here are all of the pictures we took of them. Btw, sorry about the short post today, we just don’t have much to write about our gingerbread house!
DIY Halloween Bat Wreath
We missed posting for blogtober this weekend, but now we’re back!
It’s time for another Halloween DIY! This time we made a Halloween wreath that is shaped like a bat. This DIY is so simple, but looks really cute! Here are the instructions on how to make one for yourself!
DIY No-Carve Black Cat Pumpkin
Here’s another no-carve pumpkin we decorated, and the tutorial on how to make it for yourself! This time we made this super easy no-carve black cat pumpkin, and it turned out adorable!
Pumpkin Spice Taste Test
Pumpkin spice is definitely the most popular Fall flavor, so the grocery stores have pretty much EVERYTHING you could ever want in pumpkin flavor. So we bought all of the pumpkin flavored things that we could find, and then rated them! Now you don’t have to buy ALL of the things, and you can just get the best ones.
Pepperidge Farms Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies
Ehh… 5 out of 10
I think the pumpkin cheesecake cookies were okay… At first, you get a little bit of pumpkin flavor, and then it’s really sweet. Maybe too sweet for some people, but perfect for people with a sweet tooth. I just think these would be 100% perfect if they had dark chocolate chips instead of white chocolate.
Pepperidge Farms Pumpkin Spice Milano’s
Pretty good! 6/10
These were pretty good! Once again, I think they’d be amazing with more chocolate! The pumpkin spice flavor is a little bit overwhelming, so I think regular Milanos are better.
Pillsbury Grands! Pumpkin Spice Rolls
Amazing! 9/10
These are the best canned cinnamon rolls! The only reason they aren’t getting 10/10 is because my teeth are sensitive to the processed sugar in them, so a lot of the time they give me a toothache! 😣😢
Pumpkin Spice Cheerios
So good! 7/10
These Cheerios are really good! The best cereal ever would be a combination of these and Honey Nut Cheerios!
Voortman Bakery Pumpkin Spice Wafers
In love! 10/10
These have just the right amount of pumpkin flavor, and I love wafer cookies! These with hot chocolate would be the most perfect Fall snack!
Pumpkin Spice Special K
Really good! 8/10
I was upset at first that the flakes aren’t the same as the original Special K, but this cereal is still really good! It’s my favorite of the pumpkin cereals I’ve tried so far.
Pumpkin Spice belVita Breakfast Biscuit
Good 5/10
Why did I say these are good when I rated them a five out of ten? It’s because there’s not really any pumpkin spice flavor. They taste a lot like a regular belVita biscuit. These would be perfect with peanut butter on them, or on a s’more!
This obviously isn’t all of the pumpkin spice flavored stuff available this season, but for some reason we’ve had a hard time finding anything at the grocery stores!
