100 Days of Holiday Inspiration-Halloween Party Favors-70 Days & Counting

I told my husband I wanted to throw the kids a Halloween party this year.  His response: "Are you crazy??"  Well dear, yes, but that is way besides the point!

I don't know why but I love party planning.  Even though when it gets down to "the day" I may be overly stressed and things will be chaotic, I still love it.  I am high strung, I realize that and embrace it.  I don't like to sit around and wait for things to happen: I make them happen.  And I can do this in a very affordable way.

Here are some links to a few great Halloween party favors I wanted to share with you today.

Jack-o'-Lantern Party Favors Jack-o'-lantern Party Favors by Martha Stewart


  Pumpkin Treat Bags also by Martha Stewart


  Witch's Broom Treat Bags by Martha Stewart. (Yes, I'm a HUGE fan.)


Laughing Jack Cups Craft Laughing Jack Cups at Free Kids Crafts


  Halloween Treat Cone (HGTV).  This would be great for any occasion, just switch up your card stock!


These are just a few of my personal favorites, although I have not been able to make any just yet.  I'm hoping to get brave enough to throw that Halloween party, but we'll see.

Do you plan or attend a Halloween party each year?  What are some of your favorite party favors?  Please leave a comment with your ideas, I would love to try them out and even post a blog on each one.  Feel free to leave a link to your own blog and I will hop on over for a visit.

Until next time...
G'nite!

100 Days of Holiday Inspiration 2013

Last year I started a series of 100 Days of Holidays and Inspiration and had a lot of fun with it.  I was really hoping to do one again this year, but, I am 12 weeks away from my due date (baby #3!) and I do not feel that I would be able to fulfill my duties of posting to it on a daily, weekly, or even monthly basis.  As you can tell, I've been rather scarce around here this year as it is.  This pregnancy has had a few complications along the way, but everything is looking really good right now.  I've been trying to maintain my focus on keeping myself healthy and preparing for childbirth. That being said, I did want to share with you all some great links and other subscriptions you can sign up for that will provide you all kinds of holiday ideas from fall through Christmas and New Years.  My favorite that I look forward to is the Better Homes and Gardens 100 Days of Holidays .  Some years you will see the same old things, but it's a great refresher.  Click the link abov

Planning an Organized Home - Part 1 - Chore Charts

Image
I started a post on this a few weeks ago and started getting so far in to it that it was looking more like a book than a post.  So, I decided to break it down in to a mini series called: Planning an Organized Home It's a short, six part series that I want to share with you on how I started to get our home organized and in a better routine than we have had in the past.  The more routine, the less whining "why do we have to??".  It becomes a part of every day life for every one in the house. The first thing I worked on were chore charts: one for the kids and one for the parents.  While I have a pretty good routine for my own household chores, having it in writing and staring me down keeps me from falling off track so much.  I searched online for different printable and customizable charts, and ended up finding some pre-loaded with my ancient laptop under Microsoft Works.  If you have Microsoft Excel or Word, you can do the same thing.  I attempted to copy our chart to

Organized Home: Spring Cleaning

Image
This week we welcome spring!  Depending on where you live, that may sound like a joke.  We had spring like weather this weekend, but this week we will drop back to freezing temps at night, and not much better during the day.  I think spring did a little too much springing forward last weekend.  😏 However, our spring break is coming up soon and what better time to do some spring cleaning?  For those of you that do not get a "spring break", have no fear: I have a plan for you as well.  Trying to make that spring cleaning list can seem so endless that you don't know where to begin, or if you even want to.  I always make a list that is unrealistic.  Like there is no way I can do everything possible on my list, and it just stays a list for months and months, until I finally give up and throw it away. Not this year. I have decided to simplify my list.  Well, simplify it after I have made that big, long, never-going-to-get-it-all-done-list.  This is what I added to my H
