A "Spook"tacular Celebration

We still have one full weekend to celebrate before Halloween arrives.  I love Halloween and all of the excitement surrounding and I especially love a party!     I thought I'd share a few last minute ideas for some fun and festive food and decorations in case you are either hosting or attending a party this weekend.

Sweet Treats

Eyeballs...they look disgusting, but what kid wouldn't love them?  They are white powdered donuts, gummy savers, a chocolate chip and gel icing.

Candy corn parfait...simply pineapples, mandarin oranges and whipped cream.

Mummy Cupcakes...that are actually low-fat too.

So sweet....no pun intended.

Another cute take on chocolate covered pretzels.

Every good gathering need some festive decorations and here are some super easy last-minute ideas that your kids can help with.

Origami Spider Webs- it sounds difficult, but it's really just folded and cut paper.

Or maybe coffee filter webs...so cute!

Felt bat garland...love this one!!  Felt is so cheap and easy to work with too.

Or maybe just some spooky silhouettes....so cute strung on black string.
