We thought today would be a great day to collect a few of my freebies and diy ideas for Halloween.
Whatta ya say?
I think we should start with…
Wickedly Wonderful Paper Spider Webs, tutorial here.
They are so easy and fun to make.
Add some spray paint and glitter, and you have an awesome creation!
Then we have those super fun Halloween Printable Cupcake Toppers.
Ideas and Tutorials for the cupcake toppers can be found here.
Here is the link for the printable PDF sheet.
(give it several seconds to open)
Oooo, and what about that unreal recipe for Baked Caramel Corn here?
It’s seriously mind blowing.
Beyond good.
Recipe and tips here.
Oh, and let’s not forget those printable masks!
Links and printables right here.
Owls and masquerade, and a sinister cupcake too 😉
Here you will find a recipe for the bestest pumpkin bread.
It turns out sooo scrumptious!
Pumpkin Bread – Recipe, tips and more photos.
Last but not least…
A free & printable Halloween card.
Printable pdf and tutorial can be found here.
YAY, lots of easy goodies to make and printables too.
Halloween is coming at rapid speed.
I am over here, last minute party planning.
I am shooting for Saturday the 26th.
I know it is late, but hey, aren’t we lucky we get to have one in light of all the life madness?
Hoooray!
Proper invite to follow.
Love, V
ps:
Don’t forget to recycle cardboard by drawing stars on it, and cutting them out.
Poke a little hole in the top, and use wire or ornament hangers to hang.
Then cover in craft glue and glitter, hang to dry.
I like to hang mine from fairy lights…
Easy and fun, all year long.
OMG….the caramel corn is beyond heavenly! Thank you generous girl….
Vanessa:
I’m getting all giddy and excited looking at your fun Halloween ideas. I’m in the mood to have a Halloween Tea!
Looking forward to the details for the Halloween party on the 26th!

Thanks for sharing.

This time of year is energizing. Still, we want you to rest up and heal all the way so do not over do all the excitment.
Thank you for all the free goddies!
My camera is out of action for a bit, so I need all the prep time I can get.
🙁
Oooh… thank you for all the lovely ideas!!!
Awe, thank you!! My doc gave me clearance, he said you have healed
like a pro, you are cured, go have fun. I said, can I do this and that? he
said, do it all 🙂 Isnt that exciting?? Of course, within
reason 🙂 But, I feel like a kid again 😉

What wonderful stuff! Thank you so much for all the freebies – so very generous of you as usual. What wonderful news from your doctor! You must feel like a million bucks and so relieved. Time for gratitude and fun, fun, fun!!
Yay – what a great idea for the cardboard! Stars are so simple and pretty, too. I have silver ones in my office, but I’d love orange colored ones for the Halloween decorations.
October 26th, party, you say – hurrah!
So whimsical and pretty! All of it!!! I love the spiderwebs!
Count Me in like flin.
Best round up EVER! Got to say though, my stars never end up looking as lovely as yours. That quick shot of the gypsy wagon second to last picture is to die for. Is it still around? I miss it so!
Of course, its still all decorated, and sitting under the tree, full of
treasures 😉

Beautiful! <3
Caramel popcorn is something very rare in Sweden. I made a bowl of them to last years Halloween party. Very few of the kids ate, strange because it tastes so good.
Awesome ideas and just in time! I recently came back from a trip and was looking for cool ideas for Halloween; I will definitely be trying out some of these…. The cupcake toppers make me nostalgic and the pumpkin bread looks yummy! Thanks!
Oh my the frog in the witches hat in your first picture is beyond adorable!
xxoo
Oh the spider webs! That’s how I first found you!
I was looking at someone’s Pinterest board & I saw the webs. I traced them back to your blog & the rest is history!
It’s a cloudy, rainy day, perfect for some Halloween crafting!
I see the witches & frog with the remote. I’m thinking about what they might be watching.???
Mercy me oh my!! Such wonderful Haloween treasures, thank you!!!
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie
Fun fun fun
I know what I’m doing tomorrow as it will be a rainy day in Texas 🙂
Xoxo Gina

I love everything you do. You are such a wiz in the kitchen at the drawing table and at the camera. You are a great inspiration. I love it all.
I am having an actual Halloween party at my house on the 26th. I hope I have time to do both! Maybe I can just take photos of my party and then post them the next day? I don’t want to miss the blog party, but throwing a real life party takes a lot of time apparently!
Alia,
You can post maybe one pic of something Halloween saying youll be back on
Sunday with more pics? That would work. It takes me days to get to
all the parties 😉

Okay, that sounds good!
How are haunted houses not on that list?! My friends and I just recently got together and went to different Haunted Houses here in NJ and had an absolutely blast. Whats Halloween if you are not getting a little scare?!
