It's Officially Spooktember!

 It's Officially Spooktember... Here's How to Celebrate.

Labor Day has passed, and you can't wear white anymore. Y'alloween is just a month (and like 30 days) away. Which means.... It's Officially Spooktember! So how can you celebrate? Follow this guide to make sure you get the most out of the greatest season of the year*.
*I should say second-greatest season, as nothing can beat Jesus's birthday.

Stock up on the essentials, like hay bales, plastic gourds, and fake leaves to decorate your front porch to look more outdoorsy. Every time you step out your front door, it'll be like walking through a pumpkin patch.

Now that your front porch is all decked out, it's time to decorate the inside of your house. Spruce up your tables with cloths and runners in shades of orange and brown, and replace your old curtains with brown plaid ones for that farmhouse chic look. Remember those white rugs you bought at the beginning of summer? It's time to decorate those, too! Grab a big pot of gravy and dump it all over them to get that fab DIY tie-dye look. And of course, don't forget to fill up your couch with fun, fall-themed pillows!

With your house now in order, it's time to focus on yourself with a new fall wardrobe. This year, orange jumpsuits are all the rage. Head to your local TJ Maxx and fill up your closet with these fall essentials!

Remember what fall is all about, with fun seasonal toys and activities. Decorate pumpkins to shine with Jesus's light, adorn your door with fun homemade crafts celebrating the reason for the season, and play with toys reminding you that God loves you!

Now that you know how to have the best Spooktember ever, get out there and get started on making fall great again. 

Happy Spooktember!
