Grandin Road: Feather Halloween Headbands

First to recommend

Description

If you'll be greeting trick-or-treaters or teaching a class on Halloween, you may not want to go full frontal with your costume . . . but you can still get in the mood with a moderately creepy headband. Choose from spider, spiderweb or purple feather. And, then, if you are feeling really adventurous, you can add some matching (or clashing) eyeshadow.

Chasing Fireflies: queen elizabeth costume

First to recommend

Description

My Mom made costumes for my sister and I when we were growing up. And I have to admit that they were better than the versions we were allowed to get out of a box one year. However, even my own Mom would have difficulty reproducing this beautifully detailed and accessorized "Queen Elizabeth". What a treat it would be for a little girl to wear something this special . . . and immerse herself completely in another world for a day. A bit of clever tailoring, and she could wear it again around the holidays.

Chasing Fireflies-indiana jones costume

First to recommend

Description

Two experiences I have had the great pleasure of re-living with my son: Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that my own son would want to be Indy this year, after last year's obsession with Boba Fett but, then again, never could I ever imagined that Harrison Ford would make such a roaring reprise of this role. Whoever avoids the most snakes wins !

Don't skip a night out with the girls or poker with the guys just because our down on your employment luck. Save some money and become the friendly, neighborhood bartender. Start with a bottle of "Stirrings" cocktail mixer; recipes and serving suggestions are available on their website. The "Blood Orange" is perfect for Halloween gatherings, as is "Bloody Mary". (You may just find a way to pay the rent until the recession blows over if you have a real knack for shaking and stirring.)
