Let me start by saying that Halloween is my favorite time of the year. I'm pretty sure its becuase of this one main reason, my birthday and my mom's birthday are both Oct. 29! We've had many parties either turning our basement into a Haunted House, going to the Pumpkin Patch or just throwing a fun costume party! Most recently the two of us go to Half Moon Bay where we pick out pumpkins together, and then head down to the ocean to spend the rest of the day.
This year i found these cute cupcake wrappers, and decided to make Halloween cupcakes for work, my mom, and a few parties we are going to this weekend. They were easy & fun to make (i say that now, but still have 24+ more chocolate webs to make).
I also added our new Kraft Halloween stickers on toothpicks for that extra touch!
Here's a link to the template i used to trace the spiderwebs in chocolate, and you can get the Kraft Halloween Stickers from the Hambly Store. They really are fun if you have some extra time before Halloween.
Now i need to work on my costume! I've finish shopping for all the supplies, which include bumpits, glitter, boas, & seqins! We just have more sewing/assembly to do. I'll post pics next week, plus there's more Halloween posts coming over the next few days to get you ready for the 31st!

Oh no! Now that I see those pumpkins I have an irresistable desire to do four pumpkins as the Beatles! It was the inky hair that did it, I think. Thanks for the inspiration!
