Halloween Party/Decoration Ideas




Halloween is one of our favorite holidays because of the sweet treats and decorations!

We are loving Martha Stewart's Halloween decoration ideas this year - check them out below!

A pumpkin cooler (Pictured above):
Choose a large wide pumpkin and cut off the top third with a serrated knife
Scrape out the pulp and seeds
Line the gourd with a glass or plastic bowl to prevent it from becoming water-logged
Finish by filling the bowl with ice and bottled drinks

Apple Votives (Pictured above):
(Every apple will float differently, so see how they balance in water before marking their topsides with a dot)
1. Place the tea light over the dot, and trace around its circumference with a paring knife, inserting the knife vertically as deep as the tea light is tall.
2. Set aside the light, cut the circle into sections, and scoop them out with a spoon.
3. Squeeze lemon juice onto the cut surface to keep the apple from turning brown, and insert a tea light. Repeat with remaining apples.
