Family-Fun

Blog written & researched by Communications Associate, Lauren Maley

This year, my husband and I are celebrating the holidays alone for our second year in a row. We’ll be at home in California, away from his family in St. Louis, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. I am immunocompromised, so travel is not an option. We have cats (who can’t be near pine needles), I was raised Jewish, but celebrated some Christmases growing up with my Maley side of the family, and others in Maui, and I am now somewhere in between a Wiccan and a Buddhist.

It’s Spooky Season! What a fun time of year to get together with family and friends and get crafty with some fun, easy, inexpensive, and clever DIY Halloween decorations you can make yourselves and reuse year after year. Not only will you have yearly Halloween decorations ready to go, but you’ll also have cherished memories to look back on!
