With autumn comes an abundance of busy squirrels stocking away nuts for winter, harvest markets brimming with orchard goods like apple cider, pies, and a variety of pumpkin styles \u2013 mini or large whole pumpkins perfect for stencils, carving, or pie making \u2013 hayrides, corn mazes, and Halloween celebrations galore. Popular haunted hayrides have actors and patrons alike dressed in their scariest attire. Likewise, do-it-yourself or DIY costumes reflect Halloween classics like witches, cats, mummies, monsters, and zombies as well as the latest popular movie or television show characters such as Squid Game<\/em> contestant<\/a>, an Among Us<\/em><\/a> crewmate or imposter, Spider Man<\/a>, Black Panther<\/a>, or Black Widow<\/a> to name a few.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s Scary: Everything Old Is New Again<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Although restrictions have been lifting across the U.S. and around the globe, DIY costumes, customs and celebrations for smaller groups are more popular than ever. It appears, Halloween icons of old are trending new again, even in entertainment. Take for instance, the movie Halloween<\/em><\/a> (John Carpenter film, 1978) and its subsequent sequels (from the original 1978 film) Halloween<\/em><\/a> (2018), the just-released Halloween Kills<\/em><\/a> (2021), and the anticipated finale, Halloween Ends (2022). It took 40 years between the original movie and the sequel with Jamie Lee Curtis reprising her role of Laurie Strode. Prior \u201csequels\u201d deviated from the original movie and didn\u2019t have the success of the first film, until now. However, that is not the only reference to retro classics. Singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran\u2019s Bad Habits<\/em> video release<\/a>, recognizes, and hints at the influence of Michael Jackson\u2019s Thriller<\/em><\/a> album (1982) with costume and zombie-like makeup. This isn\u2019t the first time Sheeran gives Jackson a nod. In an interview<\/a>, Sheeran stated, \u201cI think the most influential artist of the past 25 years has been Michael Jackson<\/a>. I think there are a lot of people who have taken influence from what he\u2019s done.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

From the charity auction of Michael Jackson\u2019s iconic red leather Thriller<\/em> jacket<\/a>, which fetched $1.8 million dollars to one lucky and wealthy bidder<\/a>, to other Michael Jackson memorabilia purchased by Lady Gaga<\/a> at a separate auction, his legacy continues. Gaga stated, \u201cthe 55 pieces I collected today will be archived & expertly cared for in the spirit & love of Michael Jackson, his bravery, & fans worldwide.\u201d The red jacket, as well as Lady Gaga\u2019s Michael Jackson lot tours internationally and is curated and displayed to raise money and awareness for a variety of charities.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For professional curators and individual collectors alike, the same tips apply for displaying apparel and accessories. Rooms with low humidity are key to maintaining the integrity of apparel and accessories. Acrylic display cases, whether wall mounted<\/a> or standalone, protect and showcase items \u2013 valuable, sentimental, or both. Consider acrylic display options for sports jerseys<\/a> or customize acrylic cases<\/a> for cultural and\/or traditional garments displayed as artwork.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DIY D\u00e9cor and Displays<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just dressing up for Halloween in DIY costumes that has folks taking to making their own crafts this holiday season, it also includes d\u00e9cor and Halloween displays<\/a>. Whole or carved pumpkins, jack-o\u2019-lanterns<\/a>, sit on covered porches and steps. DIY crafters often place clear acrylic boxes<\/a> over indoor decorations or place them in acrylic boxes with lids<\/a> to enhance the glow from the flameless, battery-operated candles inside. Luminaries line sidewalks, walkways, steps, streets, and more to create a ghostly or glamorous effect depending on the season. Many DIYers or practical decorators add another layer of protection to weather susceptible lawn displays. Although not waterproof, in-stock or custom size collapsible acrylic display case<\/a>s just may shelter scarecrows, skeletons and more from damp leaves and the like, so they live – or exist for another season. \u00a0Best of all, collapsible acrylic display cases<\/a> are easy to setup, break-down and store for the next holiday. In-stock or custom collapsible acrylic display cases prolong the life – and enjoyment of your decorations saving you time and money for years to come. Likewise, DIY Halloween and holiday food displays or tablescapes standout with mirrored<\/a>, acrylic blocks<\/a>, and acrylic risers<\/a>. Place clear or colored twinkle lights \u2013 orange, purple, etc. near these cubes or inside an acrylic box<\/a> for a clever contained centerpiece and a spooktacular glowing effect!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whether you collect iconic Halloween memorabilia or DIY Halloween retro or on-trend costumes, seasonal decorations, or food displays one necessity may be a permanent acrylic display case<\/a>, a collapsible acrylic display case<\/a>, acrylic display box<\/a>, mirrored<\/a> or acrylic risers<\/a>, or all to take your project to the next level.<\/p>\n
