HALLOWEEN ART PARTY


FIRST
We went to the PUMPKIN PATCH to pick out our favorite pumpkins.

WE CARVED

WE PAINTED

SECOND
We went shopping for all the goodies to make HAUNTED MANSIONS.
-chocolate graham crackers
-reeses pieces candy
-candy corn/candy pumpkins
-trick or treat mix (witches, skeletons, pumpkins)
-black licorice

Frosting Recipe:
2 cups powdered sugar
1 cup melted butter
6 egg whites
2 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cream of tartar.
-Beat 10 minutes
-Split mixture in half and put in separate bowls
-Add and mix black food coloring to one half and orange to the other.

(we learned that doubling the walls up makes it so everything doesn't come crashing down. Just put frosting in between 2 crackers when you double them up.)

WE DECORATED
