Humble sort that I try to be, I'm always a touch leery of using the word "best" in reference to my own work, but that descriptor does serve well in the context of a roundup post like this and so after some humming and hawing, I went with it.
Given that October 31st is my favourite holiday, hands (or would that be werewolf paws) down, I've certainly referenced All Hallows Eve more times than I could ever remember in the course of my blog posts, but today's roundup - a first actually in terms of gathering up and shining the spotlight on several of my own posts here - is one where the entries featured within have a strong emphasis on Halloween itself.
{That's right ghouls and boos, it's Halloween time again! What better way to embrace the season than with more than 25 of Chronically Vintage's festive posts from years past!}
This is my first entry for October 2015 and as seasonal/festive posts often serve folks best when they have time to read and enjoy and/or make or cook things featured in them, I couldn't think of a better way to kick off my favourite month of the year (which, for the record, I'm ridiculously giddy about the fact that it's here again) than highlighting some of the fun Halloween themed posts from the past 6.5 years of my blog's life.
Please bear in mind that in certain instances, products featured within these posts may no longer be available or that websites (or videos) may have been taken down. In general however, their advice and suggestions still prove helpful and most of them are still as applicable today as when they they first appeared here.
Happy Halloween festivity planning, my dears!!!

Naturally, given my affinity for the last day of October, you can count on some new Halloween themed posts here as October continues and, hopefully, an outfit post at the start of November highlighting what I wore this year for the big night.
As usual, I'm keeping my costume plans under wraps, as I love to surprise everyone with my choice of festive garb each year (here's what Tony and I, as well as my mom and sister, sported for Halloween 2014).
There is a powerful energy in the air come October. The last embers of summer's heat mingle with the first icy winds of winter. The sky, trees, and even the ground itself is decked out in golden finery and an intrinsic desire to nest and savour the bounties of hearth, home, and harvest alike comes out in full force.
I hope that this post helps you to get even more in the spirit of the season and that this October proves to be a resplendently lovely month of all of us. Happy Halloween countdown, everybody!!!
