If you're looking for something really different, check out this great book. I've made a few of the cards, the pumpkin placemats and the party crackers. There are so many great ideas in here, you won't know where to start!

I collect Halloween books and it's always a treat to find a good one. Several came out this year, but this one really takes the cake! Directions are clear, projects are just terrific. Enjoy!

This is a great book for halloween crafts, full of creative ideas! There are wonderful pictures for each project. The directions are clear and make each project seem easy. I find it geared more towards kids, which is fine since I am looking for books for both children & adult party ideas.

I have a few other halloween craft books but this is one of the best. Most of the crafts were easy enough for my children to do and great for school parties.
