Halloween idea # 24

We're down to just one week until Halloween everyone. It's 'creeping' up on us slowly. Here are some ideas to lift your 'spirits' and get you in the mood for partying, trick or treating or just watching everyone else having a good time.



The fun starts here... these are some of my photos from some recent years.
Not a real pumpkin but a very good substitute.

A big hairy spider hangs from the rafters!

This is Mr Jangles...he wiggles and sings too!
This 'grab bowl' is both trick and treat! It is sensitive to touch and when a hand goes in to take a treat, it shouts "Trick or Treat" and the hand comes down.

This is novel...a walking hand.

Some of my grandchildren at their party.

The purrfect pair!
Party food.
For Halloween shaped sandwitches...use cookie cutters.
Sausages make good witch's fingers and thumbs. Make a split in the ends and slot in an almond.
Moi!

I like to take photos of a different view. This is one of my stripey tights.


One day, I was doing some weeding in the front garden and out popped this little frog/toad (what's the difference?) I took advantage of the photo opportunity and he kindly obliged by posing for me! LOL. Every witch has a frog as a companion!
This layout was my first Halloween one. I spent an age hand stitching the web with silver thread. The cat is a dingbat font and the spider is a Jolee's Boutique sticker. I hand cut the title letters and glittered them all....things have changed in scrapbooking since and a lot has been made easier.
Gotta fly....

Love that halloween layout - the title is brilliant.

And the party food - those witches fingers look horrible - in a good way!
