I love Halloween decorations whether I'm hosting a big monster mash bash or a small intimate dinner party which I'll be doing this year.
When I was at Paper Source I saw these cute scaredy cat cut-outs.
It's actually a kit of 8 cut-outs and some silver cording but it would be very to easy to make your own.
If I wasn't pressed for time with my NYC trip coming up next week, I would use my large cat cookie cutter to use as a pattern and punch out holes for the eyes and string but I'm sure Martha Stewart has Halloween templates on her website for readers to use like she usually does.
For my own touch I'm adding some festive pom-poms.
I'll show you how to make them!
Supplies Needed:
Sheets of tissue paper ~ colors of your choice
Ruler
Scissors or X-acto knife
Black twine
3. 4. & 5.
Carefully pull each tissue layer towards the center and fluff.
You can make variegated pom-poms by alternating the tissue layers with different colors.

They are going to be studio photographed on Monday so look for it the beginning of next week.

I am going to have a little Halloween get-together myself and I am definitely going to try this out!
Oh thank you ~ I'm going to make some for our Oktoberfest. I just posted a few pictures from past years. If only were coming to the East Coast a week later you could join us!

Love the idea of the two tone pom-poms! They would work for any holiday or even just a party! Your friend at sweetmagnoliacupcakes.blogspot.com & Southern-princess1.blogspot.com
