Things to Help You Throw an Awesome Halloween Party
Believe it or not, Halloween is becoming almost as popular as Christmas for themed decorations and parties. It’s a holiday that’s not just for kids anymore. So why not go all out and host your own spooky party this year by taking advantage of some very inexpensive yet effective holiday products for your kitchen? You know you want to.
With a little bit of shopping and some creativity, you can turn your kitchen into a spectacularly spooky holiday space. Below are just a few examples to choose from.
Getting into the Halloween spirit is a lot easier when your senses are teased. A good place to start is the Brain Gelatin Mold from Fun World. This mold is one of the cheapest and most effective products you can buy for your next Halloween dinner party. It produces a blob of gelatin that looks just like that matter inside your head. If you want, you can combine it with similar molds for creating gelatin hearts, human hands, and even skulls. For added realism, get some food coloring and highlight your creations with simulated blood.
Virtually every foodie has at least one wine rack in the house. You can add another specifically designed for the Halloween holiday when you purchase the Zombie Rising up from the Grave wine bottle holder from Home-n-Gifts. For less than you’d pay for a really good bottle of Beaujolais, you can get a wine rack that holds your favorite bottle with a pair of zombie’s hands straight from the grave.
The younger guests at your Halloween party will not be drinking alcohol, but that doesn’t mean they have to miss out on the fun. LOHOME makes a reusable Blood Pack Drink Container that looks like an IV bag filled with blood. You fill it with red fruit juice before the kids arrive, then stand back and watch them serve themselves through the connected IV tube. When it’s empty, you can simply refill it. You can also wash it out and store it for next year.
4. Eyeball Salt & Pepper Shakers
Imagine a dinner party where your guests are shaking salt-and-pepper onto their meals with a set of eyeballs. That’s just what you’ll experience with the Ceramic Eyeball Salt & Pepper Shaker Set from Creative Co-Op. Talk about needing a second look! You may have to explain to your guests what to do with those eyeballs.
5. Halloween Beer Bottle Labels
Serving beer to your guests this Halloween? If so, why not serve them Witches Brew, or at least make them think that’s what they’re drinking? Big Doubt of Happiness sells a bottle label set of replacement labels you can stick on top of existing labels or apply right to bare glass. You even get a cardboard carrier for up to six bottles. Labels are laser printed and waterproof.
6. Grim Reaper Restroom Door Cover
Our last suggested item is not necessarily specific to the kitchen, but it’s well worth investing in for your Halloween party. It is a 30″ x 60″ Grim Reaper cover for your restroom door. It’s made of plastic, so it can be used indoors or out. It can also be easily removed and used year after year. The cover features a life-size image of the Grim Reaper sitting on the restroom throne while reading the obituaries. It is both funny and a little bit spooky at the same time. Who knew the Grim Reaper wears socks!
