We asked our readers to nominate their favorite Halloween items for kids, and this resulted in a massively cute collection of costumes, plush toys, decor, and more. You voted and we now have a winner!
Congratulations to MeadowLion1120, whose Peacock Tutu Dress led the pack of adorable trick-or-treat paraphernalia. She, along with some of the top picks, will be featured in the Members' Choice Gift Guide. Thanks to everyone who voted!
Get Involved in the Next Round
For next week's round, we are looking for Dia de los Muertos items, so help us honor our ancestors and show us the best in sugar skulls, paper banners, Frida Kahlo, Mexican-inspired fashion, drippy candles, flowers, confectionery treats, and gravestone-themed items. We want to see Etsy angels and skeletons dancing! In the comments below, paste a link to your favorite. If you're a seller, you can choose one of your items (even if you have more than one shop, please just one item).

What happened to kids making their own costumes using their own imagination. My favorite memories of Halloween were from figuring out what I wanted to be, and how I could make my costume from stuff around the house. Just like Christmas, Halloween is becoming too commercialized...ah the good ole days.
