I can just see you saying ; "For goodness sakes Pearl, it's August! Why Halloween stuff now?" That is because people have already seriously started shopping for Halloween and have been since June and July!!! Most Etsy searches for Halloween products actually happen in August! 

Everything has been earlier this year. Normally Easter is in April but this year it was in March.  So once that is over, people start thinking about summer. By summer, their attention shifts to fall events like Halloween. 

So let's have a look at some hot picks for Halloween decor as well as some awesome crochet craft tutorials at the end. Be sure to check the  video at the end for more ideas on hot Halloween trends and links at the end for Halloween jewelry tutorials.
