Candy Corn Cupcakes

I love this sweet and super easy idea!

Candy Corn Cupcakes!

Just seperate your cake mix into 2 bowls.

Add a few drops of orange food coloring to one

Add a few drops of yellow in the other!

Drop half of the yellow in the pan first

top the yellow with the orange batter

Bake and let cool

Top with white frosting...

So cute...

Tricks and Treats

Here are a couple of Tricks and Treats
I have done in the past.

The first is a fun decoration to
hang from your trees Halloween night!

All you need is:
White Balloons
Glow sticks
Cheesecloth
Black Marker
String

Activate your glow stick first
(small bracelets work well)
Place the glow stick in the balloon
Inflate and knot the balloon
Position the knot at the top
Draw a face on the balloon
Drape the cheesecloth over the balloon
Cut a small hole and push the knot through
Secure with a string and hang in the trees
These look so cool blowing in the wind

The second is a treat!

Candycorn Marshmallows

All you need is

Marshmallows

Lollipop sticks

Yellow Chocolate

Orange Chocolate

Cut the marshmallows into triangles
Insert a lollipop stick

Dip in the Yellow Chocolate

Let dry

Dip in the Orange Chocolate

Let dry

And there you have it!

Candycorn on a stick!

Halloween Lunch Box Notes

I am a big fan of lunch box notes!

I imagine the smile on my daughters face

when she opens here lunch and gets

a sweet note from mom.

Ok so I will stop day dreaming....

I know she is probably a little tired

of getting the same ol' same ol' notes

each week.

So, I was so excited to find these

very cute Halloween note downloads from

Allison Waken.

Are these great or what?

Download them here

Chic Princess and the Frog

I love it when you can take a character theme

party and turn it into an ultra chic and fun

theme without all of that Disney stuff!

Don't get me wrong....

I love Disney!

My kids love Disney!

But, they can keep their

plates, napkins and cups...

no offense.

This party was styled by Krista Salmon

from Kikis List

for her daughters 5th birthday.

Theme was Princess and the Frog.

Look at all of the lovely details!

So pretty!

Pretty enough for a wedding...don't you think?

Amazing lily pad cake...

Cooking theme carried throughout....

Goody bags with initialed aprons,

Tiana's, cookbook, and frog cookie cutters!

Ghouls Night In

This past weekend I hosted a

Ghouls Night In Pokeno Party!

We enjoyed a night with tricks

and plenty of treats...

and NO kids anywhere!

Aw...love girls nights!

Here are the details from the party!

My inspiration definitely came from

the TomKat Studios

Party printables found here!

Kim has 2 Fabulous styles to choose from and

they are both great!

I started with a few accents

to set the mood....

Boot tag read:
You say "Witch" like that's a bad thing...
Love it!

Moving on to the drinks...

at the Boo Doo Lounge!

Sangria Margaritas

Purple Rock Candy Cocktail Stirrer

and drink markers

Accented with a Tomkat Printable.

I was looking for a coffin to serve the drinks in but,

can you believe I couldn't find a small one!!!

I decided to make my own out of black paper.

Tutorial to come soon!

Tag for the coffin read:

"Dying for a Drink"

And I was!

The dessert table was accented with

lots of black and purple!

Cake Pops Stand!

My favorite accent!

My wonderful mom found this

pumpkin stand at Cracker Barrel

and I thought it would make a perfect

dessert display!

More sweets from the table...

Hope you can host your own "Ghouls" Night Out too!

Happy Haunting!
