COSTUMES
Do you remember making your very own costumes for Halloween? I sure do & I loved it.. I have finally convinced the twins that making their costumes is much more fun that buying them from a store. 
This year we are hoping our imaginations will carry us far..
 It has become quite scary when my closet is where most of the Halloween Costumes are born..
I have found some great examples of easy, but elegant costumes that you could make with a little tulle, hot glue gun, hair spray, face paint & and load of Self Confidence..
~WITCH with style~
~Bubble Wrap JELLY FISH~
This would also go well at a Lady Ga-Ga concert..
~The Friendly GHOST or Awkward Bride~
~LEG CRAWLER~
~GLAMPIRE~
                                                   ~VAMPIRE~

Most of these Costumes can me found on Martha Stewart with instructions on how to make them yourself .  Add your own Flair & OWN IT..

What a nice set of BONES..
   ~ Family Home Evening Fun ~
Make yourself a display of Bones..
Thank you Martha 4 the charming idea.
~Love the idea of displaying in a Cloche~
2 cute, right?? I totally think so.. This project is so dang easy & the best part about it is, you get to use SPARKLES & Glitter..
What you will need:
Skull & Bones, Fingers & Toes
Glitter (your favorite colors)
News Paper
Paint Brush
Glue
Large shallow Bowl or Tray
Kiddies that want to get spark-a-tized
What 2 do next:
1. Working over newspaper, use a brush to apply glue on Skull & Bones.
2. Hold Skull/Bones over a large shallow bowl or tray.
3. Spoon ultra fine Glitter over glued surface, making certain the glitter falls into all the crevices and sockets.
4.  Place on a tray; let dry for at least an hour.
5. Tap or brush off any excess glitter. Repeat gluing & glittering process on uncoated surface of each piece until your desired look.

This little treat would look fabulous on a little end-table or as a Grand center piece in your dinning area..

~HALLOWEEN~
It's that time to get those fun Fall/Halloween decorations out & enjoy in some fun with the kiddies.. I love decorating for Halloween almost as much as decorating for Christmas.. This year as I pulled bin after bin out of the attic, I realized I have a thing for Witches.. Here are some of my broom flying girls.
This witch-ie poo has a set of TWINS if you look close. She also has some pretty narly real looking teeth.. Oh ya, & look at her sporting my "mood ring" from the 80's..
Gotta love that Cute little Pumpkin Spider..


Witchie Poo's R taking over this year..
even a  Pumpkin BAT

"If the Broom Fits, Fly it"
Throw a few Pumpkins in the mix & we are counting down 2 Hallo's Eve.
 Here are a few pictures of Halloween Past....
