A Witch's Tea Party

The best time for a witch's tea party is after dark so all the little monsters are sleeping and the witch's can rule the night! A Moonlight Tea please! 

It's all about the treats! Pumpkin Bundt cake, aged eggs, and jello worms recipes found on Pinterest.  And ghostly meringues from my friend were to die for! 


A little witch's brew and loose leaf tea for Tea Leaf Fortunes


My extra hats for guests who forgot theirs, and a few broom they brought.  We used our brooms to do a game of pass the broom (just like musical chairs) ;)


A horrible picture, but tiny bats cut out and perched on the edge of a tea cup were such a cute detail, and easy too!


And of course a photo booth! Another very fun game was a version of bobbing for apples, but one that doesn't mess up your makeup.  Marshmallows in a bowl of water, 3 players take a straw and the first to get the most marshmallows out (by sucking them up with the straw) wins!
