Excited to report that I’ve got my Halloween weekend all planned out: a few besties will be coming to town, and between a double feature movie night, a friend’s birthday, and the San Jose’s annual costume contest, we’ve got a packed schedule. Since I’m not hosting any creepy parties this year, I’m afraid I won’t get the chance to do any crafting before the 31st, so instead I thought I’d reflect on some of the best Halloween party ideas we’ve run here on the blog.
Some are spooky, some are playful, but they’re all easy enough to tackle on your own, and sure to delight guests at your All Hallow’s Eve bash.
