How did you gather inspiration + ideas for Little Boy BOO and Spooky Sweeties? From my littlest kiddos. I have a 4 year old son and an 8 month old daughter. I love the classic and timeless aesthetic and the softness and innocence that corresponds with it. I also wanted to add a touch of playfulness with the movement and details with the motifs because that’s what childhood is all about – fun and play!
Do you have any Halloween and/or Fall Traditions that you cherished as a child or have created in adulthood? In adulthood, my family and I created the traditions of visiting a pumpkin patch and going to see fun pumpkin displays at Callaway Gardens’ Pumpkins at Callaway. I also love to watch Hocus Pocus and make Boo Mix – both inspired by childhood friendships!
