Halloween Minnie and Mickey Mouse Buckets

 Halloween stuff is everywhere. I love it. 
This time of the year til after New Year's
is my favorite time of the year. I wanted 
to update you on some of the fun things 
we have for Halloween.

The 1st photo (above) shows how one of my 
customers used her vinyl decals (Minnie
Mouse ears/bow, Name and dots for her 
daughter's birthday party) she purchased 
@ my Etsy store...Santa's Gift Shoppe 
Year Round (vinyl and gifts) Here is the 
link to it (below) if you want to window 
shop or purchase anything.

This 2nd photo (above) shows a smaller 
version of the name for all the other birthday 
guests. I think she got the buckets at Target..
not sure about that, but her daughter Abbie & 
her loved them. You will too. Take a peek. Us
adults love to have fun too!

Halloween Party

Here are some craft ideas/recipes to get us
Crafters inspired for this fun holiday.

The photo (above) is of Halloween decorations
for a party @ my wonderful friends Christine's
house. She had graciously invited some women
from Relief Society (from our church) over
for a Special Halloween Party...She is
so creative & really out does herself. (To bad
for me she lives far away...in another state)

Here is the table with decorations & some of
the Goodies. There are my mom's "Hoot-Owl"
Cookies (from when I was a kid) , Witch Finger
Bread sticks, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip
Cookies, Also (not shown are Bony Bread-
sticks) RECIPES ARE SHOWN BELOW:

"Witch Finger Breadsticks" (picture above)

Roll each roll into a finger-sized rope. Using
knife, cut one end of rope in "V" shape for
finger nail & cut lines for "knuckles." Lay
