Deceptively simple projects-from pumpkin treat holders and personalised candy boxes to black cat cupcakes and cutie-jack-o-Iantern-pies to scary black duct tape stencils-all include step-by-step directions and gorgeous photos. Matthew Mead's HALLOWEEN will make this the most memorable (and fun) event ever!
Matthew Mead is extremely good in creating and showing us how to create Halloween decorations and edibles! This is a terrific book, on the quality of Martha Stewart. It has 127 pages of ideas, all in color, and is a keepsake in itself. The projects are very good and varied. There are some for kids and they go upwards to level of difficulty. The cheapest and most kid-friendly thing to do is the Masked Boiled Egg with Witches Hat. They're pictured on the front cover of the book. The kids loved doing them and they're adorable. I made the Mummy Meatloaf (so simple!). Some things can get pricey but you can just take the ideas to make your own version with cheaper materials.
styliah & original Halloween book

I just received this book and want to review it because it has no reviews. I like it very much. It is a stylish and fun collection of recipes and decor projects from a style editor for Country Home. To my eyes it is more the Martha Stewart sort of things as contrasted with the Walmart sort of things. Most of the projects are simple and whimsical, a few are more challenging but very worthwhile, for example a quilt of many crescent moons. All in all, I highly recommend this book for lovers of Halloween decorating and cooking. :-)

I received this book today and what fun it was to look through! Gorgeous full-color illustrations and patterns. As the title suggests, there are a wide variety of activities in the book. Simple things that even kids can do (that are still stylish) and more complicated crafts/cooking for adults. I am very pleased with this purchase and I think the price is excellent considering the amount of information contained in the book. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for ideas for things to do with their kids or anyone looking to jazz up their Halloween decor.
