Halloween on a budget might feel like a distant reality as the kids demands start rolling in. Their super sized plans often require a super sized budget. 🥺
I love Halloween and really enjoy making it a magical event but i´m not prepared to spend a fortune on it. Each year I´ve gotten better at throwing an epic Halloween on a budget.
Many of these ideas are also craft, DIY projects the kids can get involved in. They´re entertained and it´s less work for you. Win, win!
These ideas only require cheap dollar store supplies, many of which you´ll already have at home.
This year with this massive bumper list of genius ideas you´ll have no problems putting on a truely unforgettable event for you and your family.
