Healthy twist on Candy Corn made by Lindsey. Such a cute idea using three vegetables – cauliflower, carrots and yellow peppers – and creating it into candy corn shape. Perfect finger foods for adults and children!

Graveyard taco dip made by Brianna. This dip was a hit at our office party! Simply make taco dip and use Mission Tortilla chips to stand up in the dish to look like a tombstone. Use black icing to write RIP on the chips.

Halloween Monster Bash by PrettyMyParty.com

Halloween is just weeks away and PrettyMyParty.com wanted to share their spooky, but kid-friendly Halloween party ideas with you!

Googly Eyed Monster Halloween Invitations
This Halloween Monster Bash was so much fun to plan. The fun Googly Eyed Monster Halloween Invitation by Pear Tree Greetings and printable designs from Cupcake With Character were the inspiration behind this shoot. I incorporated red, purple, black and orange throughout the table with chevron accents. I wanted to make it kid-friendly, yet keep the Halloween vibe, so I purchased two black Halloween trees from Michaels. I loved them and knew they would be the perfect “spooky” addition to the dessert table. I’m all about the sparkle, so I thought it would be fun to add that element to the table with glitter accents, including custom-designed red and purple sparkle wooden utensils with monster googly eyes. Thinking of having your own monster bash? Be sure to check out Pear Tree Greetings for everything monster including their Google Eyed Monster Halloween Invitations, Monster Bash Kids Party Decorations, Monster Bash Kids Gift Tags, and Halloween Photo Cards!

Red and black were used throughout the party, from the food to the decorations, to keep the theme simple and impactful. Each guest had a pirate name skull & crossbones decal to make them feel part of the gang. Gold “treasure” in the form of candy favors and serving trays made fun accents.

Pumpkin carving party ideas

1110_pumpkinParty_001-2
I like to carve pumpkins for Halloween—so much so, that when my kids were younger, I’d let all three of them carve their own pumpkins and then I’d buy an extra one for myself so that I could carve my own. That’s four pumpkins-worth of slimy, stringy, orange-y goop getting flung around my kitchen. I’ve always thought that if you’re going to make a mess, you might as well go all the way.

But that’s nothing. One of my team members here at Pear Tree has a neighbor who throws a pumpkin carving party every year for the whole neighborhood. They clean out their heated garage, put up some orange lights and Halloween decorations, and line the floor with a plastic tarp. (Wish I’d thought of that.) They provide the kid-friendly carving tools, but it’s BYOP—Bring Your Own Pumpkin.
