Pumpkin Carving Party

My friend Anna suggested throwing a pumpkin carving party at my house. I LOVE pumpkin carving, so of course I said sure! We had a few friends over, some yummy food and drinks and went to town. Here are the results of mine and Anna's pumpkins:

My Trick or Treat monster pumpkin.

My DOMO monster pumpkin.

 

Anna's awesome leaf pumpkin.

Anna's cute smiley pumpkin.

All of the pumpkins together! =)

Halloween Pendants!

Yay for Halloween!!!
I tried my hand at making a few polymer clay pendants; I really like how the pendant on this Spooky Night Necklace turned out!

I also made a smaller Halloween pendant, which I hung on a cute ribbon. My October 31st Necklace.

So what if it's only September...

...I still want to post some of the awesomely amazing Halloween stuff on etsy!

Adorable! This Little Lion Costume by babaialainn was in the Etsy Kids Contest. I'm not sure if it won, but it's so cute!

My friend Beadymonkey has some really awesome Halloween jewelry and pendants going on now. I love her It's So Scary Eek! earrings.

This is such a cute tote called Life's a Witch by baffinbags!

I love love these adorable Halloween tags, titled Too Much Halloween Candy by bluebirdlane!

Costumes are so fun!

So this year we have a friend hosting a superhero costume party, as his birthday falls right before Halloween. So, of course, I'm trying to come up with something really cool and unique. I really want a costume that no one else there will have.
I was brainstorming a bit at work with my friend, and came up with a few cool ideas.
I really like the idea of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (she's a superhero...sort of... well I get to have cool stakes! So there!) with the cheerleading costume and a belt of wooden stakes.
Then my friend suggested Ghost, who I had never heard of... But this costume could be so great.
I did always like Jean Grey, though. But the costume doesn't look very original...
Or maybe.... Captain Planet! Earth! Wind! Fire! Water!
What do you think? I can't decide!
