Dia de los Muertos is a Mexican holiday in which people remember their family and friends who have passed in hopes of helping their spiritual journey. One way people do this is by offering sugar skulls by placing them at the altar of their loved one on Dia de los Muertos. Sugar skulls are often very creative and colorful.
