For Martha Stewart, Halloween is more than just a holiday - it's an excuse to get creative and have some serious fun. When it comes to celebrating the spookiest night of the year, she has no shortage of ideas to draw from.
First things first: decorating the house. For Stewart, there's no such thing as too much bling when it comes to Halloween decor. She suggests going big or going home with inflatables, skeletons, and gravestones that will transform your home into a real-life haunted house. And don't even get her started on the importance of spooky lighting - string lights can create an enchanted tree in your backyard, complete with creepy critters like snakes, bats, and spiders.
But decorating is just the beginning. Stewart also knows that Halloween is all about food and drink, and she's got a few tricks up her sleeve to make your gathering a real showstopper. From candied apples to pumpkin-shaped iced cookies, there are plenty of delicious treats to go around. And for those looking to take their Halloween party to the next level, Stewart suggests making some spooky snacks like "shrunken heads" in cider - a recipe that involves carving crisp apples into ghoul-ish shapes and dehydrating them before adding them to a large punchbowl filled with store-bought cider, lemonade, and rum.
Of course, no Halloween party would be complete without costumes. And for Stewart, this is the one time of year where she can let her imagination run wild and come up with some truly outlandish getups. From Fairy GrandMartha to Medusa, she's not afraid to go big or go home when it comes to dressing up for Halloween.
And then there are the games - a whole bunch of them. Stewart suggests making pumpkin piรฑatas, bobbing for apples, and even setting up a homemade spider toss game that will have your guests giggling in no time. And if you're feeling really adventurous, why not try out her recipe for "doughnut dough" (aka doughnuts dipped in chocolate and sprinkled with edible glitter)? It's the perfect treat to serve at your next Halloween bash.
All in all, Martha Stewart has got the scoop on how to make this year's Halloween celebration one to remember. With a little creativity and some serious bling, you can turn your home into a haunted house that will leave your guests screaming for more.
