Tip: Halloween Decorating Ideas for Your Front Door
If you have a glass front door, or windows in the front of your home, check out this range of posters that are designed to be lit from behind, and will delight and scare those approaching your home on Halloween. Choose from several different designs:
+ Shady Spiders Translucent Window Decorations
+ Cat-rageous the Beast Translucent Window Decorations
+ Black Widow Translucent Decorations
+ Illuminating Happy Jack-O-Lantern 60in Translucent Window Poster

Halloween Fun: 101 Ideas to get in the spirit (Better Homes and Gardens)
For family-friendly fun ideas for a a spooktacular Halloween Party. Halloween Fun will give you some very helpful and new tips. A must have for every crafter and party planner. If you are looking for some cute and clever ideas for decorating, costumes, and crafts for children, this book is beautifully photographed and illustrated, and the step-by-step instructions are clear and concise. However, if you are looking for good Halloween decorating and party ideas that are a lot more elegant and adult-oriented, then I strongly recommend the Kasey Rogers (Louise Tate, from Bewitched) book: "Halloween Crafts: Eerily Elegant Decor." For family-friendly fun ideas for a a spooktacular Halloween Party.

It is well worth the money, or else try Martha Stewart's "Halloween" book. It is basically a compilation of several years' worth of her Halloween recipes, decorating, and costume ideas from the October issues of her magazine: "Martha Stewart Living." Both of these books have decorating and party ideas that are a lot more oriented for those of us adults who still enjoy having fun on Halloween, while not being "cutesy" nor overly gorey, either.
