I am getting ready for the kiddos HALLOWEEN PARRRRTTTTAAAAYY!!!  So today I am featuring the drinks and the party favors that I have made!!! 

The drinks are CUTE, CUTE, CUTE!!!

The party favors I have seen floating around and since our family LOVES smores, I decided to go with it!!!

I LOOOOOOVE these, too!!  I just took clear bags and put a sleeve of graham crackers (broken in half) pumpkin peeps and a mini Hershey's bar!!  Tied a ribbon around it and glued on the spider!!!

I also made these with the ghost peeps!!

Cut out 2 pumpkin shapes!  Mine is 1.5x2 inches!!

Fabric Pumkins

Fabric Pumpkins...another take!! ;)

One of my really good friends, Dana,  made these simple but FANTABULOUS fabric pumpkins!   I wanted to share another idea so here are her pumpkins!!!  The tutorial can be found on East Coast Mommy

THANKS Dana for the awesome pics!!!

Halloween Chairbacks

Halloween Chairbacks

My friend Jenn has come up with another GREAT idea!!  I have to admit I never thought about doing this!!  I made Valentine Chairbacks but never thought about Halloween ones!!  She made Halloween chairbacks for her little girls classroom!!  I am SOOOOO doing this for Christmas!!!



Just sew fabric on 3 sides and then embellish!! You can use any fabric you want but felt seems to be a good choice!!  And once again, you can GLUE this entire project!!

WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!  TOO CUTE!!

If you are feeling very ambitious try the TEACHER'S CHAIRBACK

Thanks again, JENN!!!!!
