Halloween 2019

Late posting about Halloween 2019.

Halloween 2015

We've been invited to a Halloween party this year.  The theme is 'Western'.  So I've decided to add a horse to my outfit.  Made it from a post on Pinterest.

Happy Halloween!

Halloween 2014

This year the Halloween party was at my friend Sylvie's house.  There was a horror theme.   Here are some pictures.  It was potluck, I brought a big pan of brownies and made some witch hats.

The Monster book of Monsters.

Last craft for Halloween

finished it too late for Halloween this year but it'll be ready for next year!.  The dollarstore boa is not a very good buy... feathers everywhere!

Dressed up as Cruella for work and to hand out candies.  95 kids came by and it was raining alot!  Joannie took 10 bags for her friends too.  Here are some pics

Halloween 2013 - 3rd H.Potter craft

Here's the 3rd craft I made for Halloween this year... The Black Family Line... I printed it out on a piece of paper which I scrunched up, then tainted it with tea and let dry.  bought a dollar store frame and put it in.  voilà!

Halloween 2013 - 2nd craft Harry Potter snitch

Made from small styro foam balls, feathers, all painted in gold.

Halloween 2013

Here's a craft I made for Halloween 2013:

A mandrake like in Harry Potter. didn't have a pattern so it took awhile but now it's done.

Halloween 2012

Well this year was a very small Halloween.  No Halloween parties.  However, I did get dressed (a little) for work & to hand out candies... we had 126 trick or treaters.
Where's Waldo?  Où est Charlie?

Halloween craft 2012

One day I'll have a Harry Potter Halloween party, so meanwhile I'm trying to craft some things that might be used for that party but also right now.
Here's my Platform 9 3/4 sign for the Hogwart's Express.
Bought a wooden plaque from the dollarstore.  Put some Gesso on it (paint that you put on wood so that the other paint doesn't sink in the wood).  Then I traced the letters & the circle on the plaque.  Mixed some red & black acrylic paint (to give the brick-red hue) and did the background, being careful not to paint over my traced letters.  After that I painted all the beige parts (mix of gold & white) and afterwards traced with the black paint.  Since I'm no good at tracing the circle isn't as round as what I'd drawn but hey, it still works ;)

Got the idea from here:

Halloween Boobash 2011 résumé

Pictures will follow in another post.

The 4th annual Halloween Boobash was on Friday, october 28th 2011. Friends : Alain R+ Johanne, Alain F + Nat, Denis + Nat, Serge + Kathleen & us.

I was dressed up as a doctor and JC as Indiana Jones.

Menu
Cheeseball + crackers
Chili + tostitos scoops + sour cream
Veggies + dip (Johanne)
Cheese plate (Joanne brought 1 cheese to add to plate)
Chips + chocolate (Nat F)
Mini egg-rolls + flaky pastries (Nathalie-Anne)
Shrimps in beer batter + brie&figs (Kathleen)
Deviled eggs
Thumbprint cookies
Chocolate covered cookies (store-bought)
Cocktail sausages
Pasta Salad

Guests arrived around 8 :00 and left at 1 :30 am.
Lots of laughter, eating, chatting, dancing. We had a really great time.
Great music… from Serge,s ipod 

Note to self : If I prep all this food do not ask people to bring any potluck dishes. We would’ve had enough with what I had.

Halloween craft weekend

Since we were to have some visitors, mom + Kasandra (11), the weekend before Halloween, I had planned some Halloween crafts so we could have fun & chat together. I had also invited Florence (also 11) to join us.

Here’s what I had planned :
- Black eye wreath (still need to buy a wreath)
- A pixie (like in Harry Potter movies) (need blue fimo)
- Tablecloth with bloody hands
- Spider victim (this one I had no idea how to do but I thought mom might have some ideas)
- Giant spider
- Charmballs
- Mummyballs
- 2 eerie Halloween signs. (need 2 pieces of wood or store-bought signs at the dollar-store)

Unfortunately, they were unable to come as planned. I’ll keep the stuff until next year and will get the girls to the crafts at another time.

It did get me to thinking, however, that I just might prepare some crafts for us all to do during Christmas time…. Hmmmm…..

October - Halloween month

uh-oh, just remembered that last year I posted EVERYDAY during october for Halloween. We are now the 13th and I'm just thinking about it.
Guess the 13th is a great day to start putting up some Halloween posts.

Today it'll be a joke
Q. Why didn't the skeleton dance at the party?
A. He had no body to dance with.
