Dia De Los Muertos Sugar Skull ♥ Halloween Tutorial- Day of the Dead

Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead is a Holiday celebration in central and Southern Mexico during early November.

Then on November 2nd, the spirits of the adults come to enjoy the festivities that are made for them! So sugar skulls are meant to celebrate our loved ones that are deceased!
