Pumpkin and Mask Decorating

So like I've mentioned earlier we grew enough pumpkins in our garden to accommodate all the girls that were invited to the party. To make it fair we numbered each pumpkin and numbered pieces of papers in a bowl. The girls had to chose from the bucket and that determined their pumpkin.
Once everyone had a pumpkin they went back to the table where they added feathers, google eyes, glittler, marker, pom poms, pipe cleaners, or their Halloween masks. I was amazed at how long the kids took the decorate, but used hardly any of the stuff. Make sure the tables are covered with newspaper or something that you do not mind

All we dud was print the masks and have the girls decorate them however they wanted.

This one is pretty easy. the girls and I decided our door needed to be a little more spooky. So we took some white circles (can use white paper plates), smaller black circles for the eyes, a long black strip and three smaller strips vertically to make a kind of stitched look. Then we made the monsters hair by cutting...triangle shapes out of the paper. We glued the pupils to the eyeballs, and taped everything down to the door.

Magnet Spiders (Halloween decoration)


At the moment, I can't find this pin. I thought I had pinned it. Clearly I was mistaken. If you have it pinned on your board, will you send me the info? I'd appreciate it :)
It is extremely easy. While my oldest was at a birthday party, my youngest and I decided the house was not spooky enough and so we got out more decorations. That's when I remembered the spider magnet. We took some plastic spiders from all around the house and a pre-adhesive magnet and stuck it to the spider. That's it. Then we stuck them to our front door (inside only)





The other thing we did was the mini orange jack o'lanterns

We bought the mini oranges and with a black sharpie drew faces onto them. They've made for a great lunchbox treat at school and well a few of them are decoration until they are eaten,
