Halloween Party invitations ~ Throw back

The other day I was browsing through my old Spoonful of Everything blog and as I read through so many cherished days,  I came across some of our Halloween fun.

When my girls were younger..   we really did it up!

 

We hosted some serious Halloween parties for the kids and grown ups.

 

When Sally was in elementary school,  half of the fun was making unique invitations.

Each year I tried to come up with something better than the last.

 

These were the severed finger invitations that I believe I saw on Martha Stewart's Halloween special.

 

 

I remember the kids were so excited to receive the unexplained gift box.

What could it be?

They certainly were not expecting a finger.

 

The next year,  they were on to me so I knew that I had to kick it up a notch to really surprise them.

These take out boxes were special...

 

When you opened the lid

BOOM!

This guy popped up!

 

And then there were these little candy jars...

Honestly, I think that half of the fun of those Halloween party's was getting invited.

 

I can't remember what year these little caskets were from.

When you opened the lid the little skeleton rose.

 

 

 

 

 The parties were always fun and as you can see, 
I had just as much fun making the invitations .

Happy Haunting.


 

 

  

 

 Just so some of you know,

I have been visiting and catching up on  your blogs

and although I've been commenting

~  some lengthy ~

I just realized that many of the comments aren't posting.
Some I had to open with my phone to comment.
weird.


Happy Sunday!!!
