Halloween Parties

  Here’s where the fun REALLY begins! Now that we’re all in our Halloween Costumes and ready to HAUNT, it’s time to wander like spirits do…or to stay home and entertain visiting Goblins and Ghouls or a gent dressed up in a Kangaroo Costume or perhaps a lady Gowned in a Cinderella Costume. If this is a Family oriented or Childrens Halloween Party, there’s no knowing what kind of mix of funny or scary young entities will be visiting. If, in fact , we are throwing a Halloween Party, there is MUCH to do in preparation.

Let me say here that MOST of the Halloween Costume Shops are beginning to have full stocks of PARTY SUPPLIES of late so they are a good place to start when looking for money saving (or NOT) party ideas.
(Some of my costume pages also have hints on party supply goods.)

I've always thought that spreading knowledge is a GOOD thing..and so is GAINING knowledge.  I also like to give BACK when I receive something. It may seem sappy but I think this could be a great forum for a little sharing...a little give and a little take.  I plan to put some of MY ideas in these pages and I sure hope some of you would also like to share what you know. I'd bet there are decorations or recipes that I've never, EVER, heard of..even at MY age when one should know EVERYTHING! :-)  I am really looking forward to this and I hope you are too.      Below is a Pumpkin that has many happy memories for me. It was at a time when I was teaching my children the "how-tos" and "safety"(of course) of carving the ole Jack-O-Lantern. This was the finished product of a group effort. It looks so great against the backdrop of the years last flowers. A perfect Photo Op!

  Before Halloween gets TOO much closer I will be busy on these party pages. I have not, as yet, received any E-Mails on the subject, however, I am holding out hope that as Halloween nears, people will become more interested?  (I can HOPE I guess :-). In the meantime...I HAVE been gathering ideas and info and I will be putting them down in type and pics very soon.

 Just for starters, Click on the banner below and you will find TONS of fun Halloween Party Decorations, Imagine a Backyard Halloween Party with Spider Webs hanging from the trees and thick layers of Fog covering the ground. " What's that? ???  Somebody crawling out of a grave?...Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!"    Whew!  Better get a hold on my imagination huh?  Be sure to check under "decorations, games,  etc." in this Party section for more ideas and products.
