by Dan Chilton, Posted Oct 12th 2007 10:00PM

Halloween is swinging into high gear, and DIY Life has been busy pumping out posts that will help you make the most out of All Hallows' Eve. In case you missed them, here are some of the best Halloween posts from the last week:

Gary's videos illustrate how to speed-carve a pumpkin, and make one puke too!
Heather shows us how to transform a baby bump into a pumpkin... or should I say, BUMPkin (lame, I know).
M.E. has a cool pattern for making a hat that transforms into Jack Skellington.
Francesca loses her head over this cool DIY Marie Antoinette costume.
For those looking to save a bit of money this Halloween, Maureen has lots of resources for easy-to-make kids' costumes.

And rounding off our week, here are DIY Life's most visited posts for the week of October 6th through 12th.

What new and exciting things will we learn next week? Only time, and your continued readership will tell.
