halloween 2008...

hAlLoWeEn was so much fun!!!  we trick-or-treated, made cotton candy & visited with friends.  the kids had a blast & looked so dang cute... if i do say so myself!  i also had a super fun time coming up with some fun, different things for my trick-or-treaters.  i got a cotton candy machine, spun purple cotton candy.  put some spider rings in it, wrapped it in cellophane & put these little spider web tags.  i also made these "witch's brew" labels.  they fit right around any glass bottle &  after my cute friend Debbie added the cute ribbon & tulle, i think they ended up DaRLinG!!!!  i hope that you had a hApPy HaLloWeEn & i have already started on Christmas!
