Would you like to be BOOed?
If you're not familiar with this...it a fun Halloween tradition. It involves...a Ghost, like you see here, that is given, along with a note or poem...and the best part a treat. Then you take those...place them at a neighbor's or friends door, ring the bell and run.{or skip or walk...lol} The recipient then posts the Ghost on their window so others know they've been BOOed and now it's their turn to do the same for someone else. It's simple and fun. And also great to do something special for others.
So...how can you get BOOed you ask? Well as much as we'd like to leave candy and Glue Arts treats at your door, chances are many of us are a bit far apart. So we'll BOO you through your personal blogs and Facebook pages.
