Let the whole family join in the fun of planning a Halloween party. Try these creative ideas to get started.
To make Halloween party invitations, use orange and black construction paper to cut out pumpkins and bats. Use colored inks and envelopes to match. Include a personal greeting inside. On the invitation, give your Halloween party a creative name like "Monster Mash" or "Witch's Brew." Stickers also help bring a theme to life.
For Halloween party favors, make ghost necklaces using confectioners glue. Spread glue thinly on waxed paper and make a ghost shape. Use candy bits for facial features. Allow to dry during the party; when nearly dry, gently remove from wax paper and poke a hole through the head. Let dry completely. Thread with black yarn.
To make "ghostly goodies," place a few HERSHEY’S Candies in the middle of a 9-inch circle of white fabric; gather up in the center and tie with black yarn; use a black marker to make ghostly facial features.
To create paper rings for your Halloween party, fold left-over candy wrappers and fit them to your finger size. Glue a HERSHEY’S KISSES Brand Chocolate on top.
To make "Monster Feet" candy holders, draw or trace a foot on a folded circle of orange construction paper or poster board. Cut out the foot; avoid cutting on the fold. When cut out, you'll have two feet. Use a glue gun to attach black paper cups to the feet. To create a handle, punch holes in the cups, near the top, and thread a colored pipe cleaner or ribbon through them. Secure at top for carrying and fill with an assortment of HERSHEY’S Candies.
