Green Your Halloween Ideas

Be safe - make this an eco-friendly Halloween

Avoid the real spooks (harmful toxins, etc.) and take easy steps to green your Halloween this year. There are loads of alternative eco-friendly Halloween ideas for dressing up, decorations, treats and more so you can make safe, healthy choices for you, your kids and the planet too.

For dressing up, we've got some great options - from non-toxic face paint pencils to natural nail polish for kids and for decorating, try our window crayons to help avoid filling the bin with disposable paper decorations the day after. Rather than sugar-laden treats, what about cool gourmet-scented newspaper pencils or a recycled worm crayon? Check out our complete collection of eco products for Halloween. We also have a range of tips and advice for making the most of this ghoulish time of year, which we'll be adding to over the next few weeks - and don't forget to enter to win a pack of non-toxic face paint pencils from Germany. See below for more!
