Some of the ideas on the website might be a little overboard, but a few are realistic, and easy to do. Grab some old decorations from the previous years and spice up your house! HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!

Share & Voice: Go Green Halloween
So, with Halloween coming up here in a couple weeks, I thought it would be a good idea to give some ideas on what you can do to celebrate, but with little impact on the environment. This Top Halloween Tips website gave me a few ideas. Number one, instead of going out and buying a costume that is already pre-made, you should make your own! You can use material that is reused/recycled from a thrift store, or maybe just find old clothes that you or your friends own that you can create into something new! It is saving money, being environmentally friendly, and plus.. it is fun!!

Thanks for sharing this Elly! I am not buying a Halloween costume because I feel like it is a wast of money. I never even thought of the impact on the environment. Yay plus 1 for me and the environment by reusing old clothes and some of my friends! But seriously, I never realized the plastics and chemicals and what not that goes into costume making. Seriously, what a way to ruin the environment by producing 1000s of over priced halloween costumes.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the share! And yes making and sharing costumes with friends is inching toward being environmentally friendly and saving money!
ReplyDeleteIt is a great way to save money and still have fun. That reminds me of last year's Halloween because my friends and I took old fabrics and made costumes for ourselves.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy this! I love halloween! It's fun to dig through old costumes and clothes you've buried in the back of your closet & see what you can come up with!
ReplyDeleteI was just about to go out and buy a costume today! Now I feel like it wouldnt be right to do. I liked the link too, although I dont think I'll be giving up my candy anytime soon, everything else sounded great!
