a halloween party

We are dedicating this entire week to Halloween inspiration.
Hope it gets you in the Halloween spirit!

My daughter, Charlotte, loves a party (surprise, surprise) and she especially loves a Halloween party.  One nice thing about living in Nevada is that every year, depending on when the 31st falls, we get the day off from school for Nevada Day.  It's the perfect opportunity to throw a little get-together for a handful of girls. 

If you are interested in ordering Halloween party invitations, they are $37.50 for 25 invitations paired with orange envelopes + shipping.  Email us directly with your order.

Last year, we made chocolate graham cracker "haunted" houses.  Prior to the party, I used a hot glue gun to construct all the houses (I suggest doubling up all sides, two graham crackers thick, to prevent breakage).  I glued the base of the house to a paper plate to avoid spillage.  I purchased ready-made chocolate frosting (but had to remove and redesign the labelling because it ruined my whole aesthetic) and various Halloween-colored candies.  The girls loved it!

Finally, I printed out each girl's name on a little "sign" using adhesive paper.  These were then affixed to a toothpick and stuck in a miniature pumpkin candy.

Did you use chocolate graham crackers or do they just look dark because they have frosting on them? Love the invite.
