If spending time with your gal pals and sipping a pretty cocktail {or two} is your idea of a good time, then read on, ladies, because this "Ghoul's Night In" Party is for you!

Without a lot of effort, you can turn a cozy night "in" into a wicked awesome night for you and your best "witches."  Read on to learn how!  {I double-dare ya not to get distracted by the pretty pics}!  ;)

I started off by designing these super adorable "Boos or Booze" Halloween Party Invites that are absolutely perfect for the occasion.  I mean seriously, y'all...how cute is that?!!

...and then I created a super cute cocktail to match!  

The martini glasses are actually plastic glasses from Oriental Trading Company that I jazzed up for the occasion.  Bet you wouldn't have guessed they were plastic...they look amazing all fancied up, don't they?!!  They're reasonably priced, too, so if you have quite a few gals coming over, score!  

The bottoms and tops of the glasses arrived as separate pieces, which worked out great, because I was able to spray paint just the bottoms with gold spray paint.  So fancy.  ;)

I wrapped the stems with some wired ribbon for a pop of color, and used rock candy & spider charms (also from Oriental Trading Company) to mimic the invite.  An orange slice and an eyeball gumball {say that three times fast} completed the look perfectly!  

And here's a pretty cool FYI for ya:  If your cocktail is clear, the rock candy will color it!  No splash of grenadine or blue curacao required!  

Mini bottles of libations were wrapped in some papers that coordinated with the invites, and I used "wicked" and "sweet" labels to mark the different kinds of liquor.  A few of the leftover spider charms were a spooky addition to the "wicked" bottles.  

Sitting in front of the "Pick Your Poison" sign, the bottles looked pretty stinkin' cool!

And because I can't get through the day without a little humor, I thought adding the "Make Mine a Double" sign would generate some smiles.  I  attached it to a candy stick, and displayed it in a cute little cauldron from Oriental Trading.  Adding the witch charm was hard to resist, so I went with it.  It was a "charming" touch!  ;)

I'm all about things that are different and unique, so I transformed some clear, plain candy tubes into "potion" shot glasses.  

They turned out soooooo cool {check out that before and after pic}!

I dry-brushed the tubes with black paint, and then used a sponge brush to dab on some metallic gold to make the tubes look old and wicked.  

The "Good Witch" and "Bad Witch" charms served as a conversation starter...when you sip your spell, do you wanna become a good witch or a bad witch?  They're so cute they'll leave you spell bound!  ;)

Just remember, if you'll be drinking shots from the tubes, do not allow paint on the inside of the tubes, and do not put your mouth directly on the tubes!  

You could also use these as favor containers, and tuck little treats inside.

Your best witches are bound to get hungry, so a few creative Halloween snack ideas will definitely be in order!

I crafted up little broomsticks and used them as skewers in macarons {that I found at TJ Maxx, believe it or not}, and labeled them with a sign that said "Broomstick Parking."  Clever, right?  :)

Salted edamame served as "Witch's Warts," and were served up in the same little cauldrons that I mentioned earlier.  They came in so handy {and I'm still crushing on those charms}!

And that about wraps it up!  Pretty wicked ideas for hosting a cozy "Ghoul's Night In" Party, if ya ask me!  

Here are just a few more pics of the table decor that you might like.  If you have any questions, just shoot them my way, and of course, I looooooove hearing from you {it makes this little office of mine a whole lot less lonely}, so drop me a line in the comments below and let me what ya think!  xoxoxo

Cheers, Witches!!!
