When deciding on a Halloween costume, we always gravitate towards the fun aspect. But as a mom to two young kids, I'm also thinking, is it warm enough to go out trick or treating?! Which means I was beyond excited to find the snugly and lush Halloween outfits from Pottery Barn Kids ! And guess what?! Parents needn't feel left out, 'cause they do matching grown-up (and even pets!) costumes too! ;)
The NO-BAKE Halloween Kids Party Treats I posted last year were winners, for sure! I loved making them. My kids loved test-driving them. And it seems you guys loved pinning them ! So this year, I decided to round up some our fave Halloween Cute and Fun Treats for Kids , which are perfect for whipping up quickly - no tricks! ;)
No matter the season, we all scream for ice cream 'round here! I'm sure we're not alone. Everyone loves ice cream, so why not celebrate anything and everything with an ice cream social?! The guys at Candy Galaxy show us how!

This embroidery hoop backdrop really helped to add a touch of spooky modernity to my Halloween Cheese and Party . It is super simple and quick to make, and can double as a wall feature in the home all year round - I actually have them as a fixture in my craft room now, spider and all! :)
We're ending our vampire-themed Pottery Barn Halloween week on a fang-tastic note with loads of free printable and DIY downloads for embellishing your vampire lair!! :)
October has started, and promises to be like a crazy whirlwind. But when the work I do for the blog gets shared or feature in the press, it more than makes up for the long hours and hard work. Not only because it opens up other business avenues and a chance to connect with a new audience, but also because someone, somewhere, has also liked what you did. And that my friends, is totally priceless! :)
Don't know about you, but I've always loved Scooby-Doo mysteries! Now, my kids love it too, and I can't help but think it would make a fabulous seasonal birthday, but also a really fun Halloween party!! Get inspired with all the creative details from this gorgeous 6th birthday party that was linked up by Vixen Made on our September Linky.
One of the best parts of my job is seeing how Bird's Party printables are used on a real events, especially when the customer is beyond talented and creative; which then just puts a humongous smile on my face!!

Halloween is creeping up on us. It's time to act - decorate the house, get the candy, carve the pumpkins, get the costume, plan the party... So toady I (Hani) am sharing a super cute project for you - Halloween Treat Bags , which are perfect for little treats for the kids to take to school, or you can use them as favors and decorations at your Halloween Party Table.

Following on with the week's Halloween Vampire Blood Bar theme with Pottery Barn, we're set on enlivening up the undead with delicious and devilish libations! :)
These spicy-sweet gingerbread cookies are sure to satisfy all the hungry vampires who haunt your house. The yummy icing cloaks the bare cookies in yummy vampire disguises, and are perfect treat to end to your Halloween Vampire Blood Bar on sweet, but spooky note!
This theme was inspired by my newest printable collection – a “Red Riding Hood” Inspired Woodland Birthday theme ! I always like to get involved as much as I can for all my photo shoots, as party styling is one of my favorite aspects of the job!
When Pottery Barn asked us to help celebrate the arrival of their NEW Fall collections, I nearly fell off my chair!!

Not sure if you know, but earlier this year started catering for those impromptu and last minute parties with our " Instant Download " party printables. Basically, they do exactly what it says on the tin - You pay and simply "walk away" with your printable download. No waiting. No queuing. No fuss. Which means you can shop 24/7 and get these printable goodies any time of day (whatever your timezone!). And because these instant download printables have been so popular, we decided to add a few more to the shop!! Woo-Hoo, did you say?! :)
The title of the post is a bit of a mouthful - in many ways than one! These candy-corn chocolate covered Oreo cookies are really simple to make (despite the long title). They look super fabulous as a Halloween gift, party favor, or desserts table treat. But most importantly, they taste absolutely scrumptious!! It's also a great recipe or Halloween project to make with the kids . I made them with my 6 year old, so if she can do this, then I'm sure anyone can! ;)
