October at cheekymono: discover kids’ yoga, Halloween, Día de los Muertos, Sip & Shop, family events and how your support helps Project Peru.

Discover the story behind cheekymono’s Sip & Shop in Sandgate — a celebration of thoughtful shopping, Fair Trade and ethical products, Peruvian and Mexican folk traditions, Halloween and Día de los Muertos, with plenty of colour, culture and community along the way.

Get spooky and sustainable this Halloween with easy craft ideas for kids — from fir cone spiders and junk-model monsters to DIY spooky retablos made from recycled boxes. Perfect for half term afternoons and imaginative little hands, these eco-friendly makes celebrate creativity, storytelling, and seasonal fun — cheekymono style!

October has arrived, and it’s buzzing with colour, creativity, and a little spooky fun! From back-to-school worry dolls helping little ones settle, to bright new hand-painted art prints, and our Sip & Shop Pop-Up at Sandgate Deli with Halloween crafts and fairtrade finds — there’s lots to celebrate this season. Plus, a special update: I’ll be closing my Petticoat Lane Emporium stall from 16 October, but you can still shop online and join upcoming events!

Celebrate Halloween & Día de los Muertos with cheekymono’s sustainable, handmade folk art. Skulls, retablos, crosses & kids crafts for half term fun!
