A Night at the Library: MN Zoo Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular 2022
A few years ago I went to my first ever MN Zoo Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular, then COVID happened so we didn't end up going the two years following that. Well, this year it's back or rather we went back to it. The theme for this year was: Night at the Libary. So, everything was themed around various types of books you might find. There are more than 5,000 glowing carved pumpkins at this event. So, there's no way to photograph all of them. But I did photograph a bunch of them. So, I thought I would do a photo gallery type thing from the event since I had an absolute blast at it.…

Check out her blog if you don’t already follow because she puts out some amazing content. This tag was created by Jordanne from The Life of A Glasgow Girl (the header image from hers).…
View PostOuija Board Inspired Makeup for Halloween
An iconic item that appears in horror movies is a Ouija Board, and since I've been doing classical horror movies this year I thought I would do my own version of this. If you don't know what an Ouija board is, it's a way of communicating with spirits. Though I would not suggest doing this as you never know what you are inviting into your home or where you're at. …
View PostThe Power of Christ Compels You! Regan from the Exorcist Inspired Makeup Look
The Exorcist is one of those films where the horror just doesn't hold up over time. Or maybe we're just desensitized to horror and gore these days from the news and internet that it no longer holds the same freight level it used to. When this film first came out, people were vomiting, fleeing the theater and their were priests there for the movie-goers. Since I'm on a bit of a classic horror movie recreation for this Halloween, I had to attempt Regan from The Exorcist.…
View PostPhoto Diary: Minnesota Zoo Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular
The other night I actually left my house to be "social" by that I mean I hung out with my mom and sister by going to the Minnesota Zoo for the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular. This is the second year they have done this event, so I didn't know what to inspect since I didn't go last year and held off on looking up any information. This way I could get the full experience. Apparently there were 5,000 illuminated pumpkins all with different sizes, shapes, and faces. It was incredible! …
View PostRainbow Splatter Skull | Vanessa Davis & James Charles Inspired Makeup Look
I was really inspired by this look James Charles and Vanessa Davis did for the "launch" of the Morphe x James Charles mini palette. Which is basically the same palette just smaller. I got the original palette when it launched, moved and had to part ways with it due to size, then regretted that and my sister repurchased it for me as a moving in present (my sister comes up with a million reasons to get me makeup, I generally don't ask her to but if I mention a palette looks cool and I can't afford it, suddenly she surprises me with it. She's the best, I love her to death). However, I recently got the Norvina Collection Volumes 1-3 and decided to use those instead to create my own version of this look.…
View PostWhy are you Screamin’? Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street Makeup Look
Haven't done one of these in a while on the blog, but I had some spare time and it's Spooky Season, so next up in my Classic Horror Makeup Series is Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street. Complete with body painted outfit and tin foil blade fingers since I'm on a budget.…
View PostHi, I’m Chucky, Wanna Play?!? Child’s Play Inspired Makeup Look
Next up in my classic Horror Movie series makeup looks is Chucky from Child's Play. This movie follows a 13-year-old boy who gets a toy doll called Buddi for his birthday. However this Buddi doll takes on a life of its own, and names itself Chucky. Let's just say if you think killer doll, Chucky is generally the first one that anyone thinks of. So, I just had to attempt to recreate this iconic character as part of this series.…
View PostI Tried Following Atleeeey’s Grunge Skull Halloween Makeup Tutorial
Today I'm following a Atleeeey Halloween makeup tutorial that she did this year as part of her Ashtoberfest series. I would so do a Halloween series... but I don't have time to do that. But I can do a special Halloween video trying to follow her tutorial. And the look that I was super excited and inspired by was her Grunge Glitter Skull Halloween Makeup Tutorial.…
View PostAutumn To-Do List
Autumn is my favorite season of the year. Whether it's spending time by the fire getting cuddled by in a blanket drinking hot chocolate and eating s'mores. Or a fall walk through the woods on a crisp evening as the leaves are changing on the trees. And while I know we're almost all the way through the season with only a month left before it's winter, I really wanted to write this post. And share the list of things I try to always accomplish before the season is up.…
