Halloween party!

Bubbling root beer was a hit with the kids and the adults!
We used The Big H brand extract - YUM!  I wasn't willing to pay a dollar per glass, so I found these in packs of 6 for a dollar in the wedding section at the dollar store (o:
We all took pictures in our costumes with a big mirror frame I had.


Peanut butter balls turned out great dipped in white chocolate 


I had the husband make these sucker stands for me the night before the party and my nieces painted them up with chalkboard paint.  I'm so happy with the way they turned out!  I made these teeny suckers to display.




I got the idea for these super cute bat boxes online.  I can't find where I saw it though.  If it's yours, please let me know and I will put a link to your site.

I copied old love letters from my great-great-grandfather to my great-great-grandmother and my husband folded them into boxes for me.  Adding bat wings made them the perfect Halloween favor boxes! 


These cute coffin boxes were inspired by a post on Better Homes and Gardens:  http://www.bhg.com/holidays/halloween/crafts/coffin-party-favors/  They even give you a template to print out for them!  Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy!



I've always wanted to try these candy corn topiaries from Better Homes and Gardens.
I used an old rake handle for the "trunk" because I refused to pay $3 for a dowel.
My camera doesn't do anything justice...sigh.

I found this old candelabra at the thrift store - fantastic!
