Gone are the parties with simple plastic pumpkins and tissue paper
ghosts. Plan a spooky, yet stylish, Halloween celebration from

party, all you need to create a frightfully festive party are
simple supplies, the right glue, and your creativity.
The experts at Perfect Glue offer these unique, easy-to-make
ideas that are sure to please.
Make personalized invitations
Invitations set the mood for a party. Whether you want to spook
and scare or enthrall and delight, you can easily create a stylized
invitation to fit the theme. Consider mixing fabric with paper to
create a unique effect.
Prepare activities and treats
Entertain your guests with themed activities and treats. Make
charming Halloween hats made of fabric, paper and creepy, crazy
embellishments. Felt-covered baskets filled with candies and party
favors are sure to please all ghosts or goblins of any age.
Create designer-quality home décor
Evoke screams of delight with a charming table runner, a
centerpiece of sparkling star wands or retro orange and black paper
candleholders. To create these unique candleholders, you’ll need:
Cylindrical candleholders in various heights
* Perfect Glue 1
* Decorative and plain scissors or decorative paper punches
* Black and orange paper
* Tape
* Scrap paper long enough to wrap around candle holder
Using scissors or paper punches, create fun shapes from various
black and orange paper. Apply a small amount of Perfect Glue 1 to
the back of shapes and apply to candleholders. To hold shapes in
place while drying, wrap a piece of paper tightly around the
candleholder and tape in place. Let sit for an hour.
For the vellum wrapped candle holder, draw designs onto the
vellum and cut away interior of designs using scissors. Wrap vellum
sheet around candleholder and apply Perfect Glue 1 to ends of paper
and secure.
Tip: To help set the candle in place (and to add a
festive touch), add Halloween candy to the holders.
The right glue can make any craft or home improvement project
easier. Perfect Glue 1, 2, 3 is an award-winning trio that adheres
