Halloween & Thanksgiving Party! Downloads!

My next party feature is this lovely HALLOWEEN AND THANKSGIVING PARTY submitted by Kori Clark of Paper & Pigtails! What a perfect concept...a fall party that would work for both thanksgiving & halloween! Genius! All the party printables for the party are just darling. The best part...Kori is offering the halloween circles, fall circles, halloween sign & fall sign to my readers for FREE. Download them here! Thank you, Kori!! The rest of the adorable party printables can be purchased in her shop here.


Kori said- "This shoot comes from the most practical and honest side of me. At the risk of being tarred and feathered by party loving friends, I haven't really ever decorated for Halloween....I decorate for fall and tweak little bits to change things up from Halloween through Thanksgiving. This is how I came up with the concept of a party that could be easily put together for a Halloween Party, and all of the items and details could be used again for a family Thanksgiving dinner, or even just fall entertaining! 
The design for the shoot was based on the printable designs used, and I wanted to focus on white pumpkins with a silhouette feel. I wanted to get away from typical Halloween colors with a crisp white and deep chocolate browns. 
The dessert table is always a favorite of mine, as I think it provides a beautiful backdrop to a get together! I covered the table in chocolate colored linens, and then created my own "table runners" but placing a strip of double sided tape down each side and adhering doilies and white pumpkin cut outs across the top of the table and down the front. To give a little height and definition, I hung strips of burlap made like large tassles in the trees to hang down on either side. The table featured darling fondant pumpkins from , a holiday framed sign (one for Halloween and another one for Thanksgiving), pecan pie bits, cupcakes, and a beautiful cake and cake pops made by a friend who will be launching her cakerie in 2012!! I also made chocolate covered marshmallows to look like white pumpkins! 
The kids table had the same doilies and pumpkin cut outs along with a container of crayons for the little ones to color them with! At each place setting there was a stick of rock candy for a little take home treat.
Sweet Things Kids created an outfit to coordinate with the printables and I just adore it! The tutu was so fluffy and she used the same material from the pumpkin to make a tie for the little guy!"
