Pumpkin Party Cooler
Halloween's just around the corner, but it's not too late to enhance your haunted house, add a touch of fright to party decor, or prepare for trick-or-treaters. Get into the spooky spirit with these 25 quick and stress-free Halloween ideas.
Need a quick ice bucket for your Halloween bash? Carve your pumpkin into a festive cooler. Just choose a large, wide pumpkin, cut off the top third with a serrated knife or keyhole saw, and scrape out the pulp and seeds. Line the gourd with a glass or plastic bowl to prevent it from becoming waterlogged. If the pumpkin opening is a bit too small for the bowl, carefully shave the inside edge with a spoon. Finish by filling the bowl with ice and bottled drinks.
Easy Superhero Costumes
You and the kids can use your magical powers to create these speedy superhero costumes in record time. Each of these outfits starts with leggings and a long-sleeve T-shirt (which don't even have to match). Then come the accessories of your choice: headbands, eye masks, chest letters, capes, lightning bolts, and belts.
Batty Bags
Petrifying Potion Display
Fill old-style specimen jars with water, and add enough food coloring to produce a suitably supernatural tint. Arrange lotus pods, poppy pods, and coneflower heads within. No evil will darken your doorstep with these eerie elixirs on display.
Creepy Candles
Cast a sinister glow over any setting with a cluster of white tapers dripping with "blood" (actually red candle wax). Fill a cup or a small pail with sand, and plant white candles inside so they stand upright. Light a red candle and tip it over the white candles so the wax drips down the tops and sides, being careful not to burn yourself. Let wax cool completely before removing candles from sand.
Easy Halloween Tablecloth
Make a festive tablecloth in a cinch using layered crepe paper and polka dots cut from streamers.
Alternate layers of orange, black, and white table crepe paper. Then, punch various size holes from streamers. Use punched circles to decorate top layer. Cut scalloped edge from black streamer and use it to trim top of table.
