Wednesday’s Weekly Reader: Halloween Special

October 29th, 2008 · 6 Comments

Since Friday is Halloween, which just happens to be my favorite holiday (followed closely by April Fool’s Day), I thought I’d share some fun Halloween links this week. But first, I want to give a big shout-out to Linden for unveiling her brand new site! She’s gotten her own domain and switched to WordPress! Congrats! I can’t wait to see the rest of the site once it goes live. I’ve updated my link to her to the lower right. And now, on to the festivities:

Pumpkin Carving:
What’s Halloween without a Jack-o-lantern?

  • Etsy’s Storque posted an excellent How-To for this Cannibal Pumpkin:

  • Hallmark Magazine had an awesome pumpkin idea, and I keep seeing it crop up in my feed-reader:

    Cre-a-tiv-ity breaks down all of the link love for you.

Forget the tricks, and go straight for the treats!

  • Kitsune Noir sets the mood with Hellaween - a mixtape as free download
    Sadly, Feed My Frankenstein, The Monster Mash are Not included ;-) Guess I’ll have to make my own mix too…
  • Stickers and Donuts posted 13 Halloween finds - I totally agree with the awesome Target Domo promotion
  • One of my favorite sites, Animation Backgrounds, has been posting Halloween-themed backgrounds all week. (And as Drawn! pointed out, they make great desktop backgrounds!) What better way to start off than with Nightmare Before Christmas:

    Thanks for announcing my new site! I can’t wait to launch the rest, if you know what I mean (and I think you do!)!!

    I LOVE the cannibal pumpkin! I wish I could come up with cool ideas like that. I always get really awesome ideas throughout the year and then when it comes to carving time, I never remember what my ideas were so i usually end up with something rather plain.

    PS - I responded to your question on editing themes on my post. Hope it helps :)
