Halloween Ideas to Steal

So I did some Internet Hunting this evening to get some party ideas for Saturday that are cheap and/or free. ....Here are a couple that I plan to steal:

Eyes in your wine....YES PLEASE!!!!




I think I can print out some fun and scary labels to cover wine and beer bottles for the night:

Spider rings on wine glasses! Love it, we can even do this at the bars!



If I feel like messing around with knives I might try these:

Kerri is planning on whipping up some creepy ice body parts to float in a punch! Here are some ideas Kerri!

Then I think I will print out some skulls and bones to tape them all over the house!
Recession Decorating!!!!!


Halloween Costume

So I have not put much thought into my costume this year, so whatever I can figure out quickly and cheaply on Saturday will be the winner. Current thoughts are Halloween Princess or Woodland Princess.

I have been a Halloween princess before and provided my skirt still fits, I think that is what I will be.

But this picture below really makes me want to me to be a Woodland Princess....I think I would need to buy a lot more for this costume which I can't really do right now...But look how pretty!

Halloween from Etsy

Here are some Halloween prints to get you all in the Halloween mood....
They are all from Etsy. Links to each art piece are below the pics. Enjoy and get excited!

A Yard Sale

So I was dropping stuff off at a landscapers for work and I noticed some tents so I pulled in! It seemed more fun than it was, but there was some good stuff. I didn't get anything though.


There were a lot of creepy dolls. If I had extra cash right now, I might have gotten some for Halloween decorations! Aahh this baby might give me nightmares:


So I don't know how you feel about ventriloquist dolls but I think they are SUPER scary and creepy. I would NOT buy these as Halloween decorations since if they were in my house, I think they might kill me in my sleep. They are worse than Jack in the Boxes!

Look at those eyes...they are plotting against you...

Then I saw these chairs that I really liked and almost got them...BUT I didn't have cash on me, so I tried to decide if I liked them enough to find a bank, get cash and go back...not to mention that I have no need or place for them...and the answer was no. Hopefully someone else gave them a good home and makeover.

Hacklebarney State Park

I went to Hacklebarney to see some fall foliage, but as usual, in the woods it was all still green! Well I guess there was a little color! Everyone had the same idea since I have never seen so many people there in my life.


Chester was a mad house, everyone apple and pumpking picking. Look at this traffic! Wild!







Worst Halloween Decorations Ever....

WTF Martha! What is this? A sick sick joke? Worst Halloween Decoration Ever!

I was looking on Apartment Therapy and noticed someone actually used these in their home! Sickos! (pretty stair case though)
