If you love Halloween (who doesn’t?), you MUST pick up Martha Stewart’s special Halloween issue. It has crafting ideas that are so fun and easy. And when I say easy, I mean easy, because I am not very crafty. There are some that are beyond my skill level so if you are artistic and talented, there are plenty of challenging crafts and decoration ideas for you. Every page is dedicated to Halloween and covers costumes, makeup, decorations, crafts, recipes, parties and pumpkins. I tend to go for the less scary and cuter Halloween themes. The Gourd family pumpkin “snow” people (above) will be at my front door as soon as the pumpkin patch opens. The pumpkin favor pouch is just crepe paper and floral tape, did I say it was easy or what?? Find this at your newsstand and of course the supermarket checkout. You can also find many of the idea on Martha Stewart online, but the magazine is so much fun to flip through. And all the instructions, cut outs and stencils are all right there for you.
