IDEAS FOR A VINTAGE HALLOWEEN

Coming up with ideas for Halloween costumes and decorations is a perennial problem that never seems to get easier, and it’s not a new problem.

Our Great Grandparents had the same problem and so a crepe paper manufacturer recognized the opportunity and produced a neat little 34 page booklet that was was chock full of halloween ideas. Beautifully illustrated in 4 colors (when color printing was rare due the expense) it covered every aspect of halloween, from costumes to decor or dance, and including games, favors, invitations and much more – all revolving around the use of colored crepe paper. The ingenious ideas they came up with are just as applicable today as they were 83 years ago.

We have republished the vintage booklet as a downloadable PDF file that can be read on PC’s or Mac’s and added some clipart and cutouts along with more detailed making instructions to complement the original material.

If you’re lacking inspiration or looking for vintage halloween ideas, or just something different, then this book is for you.
