Nice Adult Halloween Idea


I found this today. I thought it looked like a good idea for an adult party. It didn't seem very kiddie friendly but great for setting a mood for, maybe, an adult costume party.

The pumpkins are painted with metallic paints and sewn with fancy fabric.

Have fun !!!

Address for directions are below.

Book - for Halloween

Reader’s Digest Tricks and Treats
The Ultimate Halloween Book
- Deborah Harding    (publ  1998)
I found this book at the library but have ordered one for myself. It's not a very thick book - lay your pinkie along the spine and it's about that thick.

I liked several things in this book but my favorites were -

- Two carved pumpkin patterns – one with leaves shapes cut out all over, another with bat shapes cut out all over (on the cover)
- acorn squash looking like black cats
- butternut squash looking like ghosts
- recipes for how to make Twinkies look like a mummy and a witch.
- a haunted doll house
- a quilt pattern for black cats, pumpkins, fall leaves, and candy corn.
