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!
