Not for the die-hard Martha fan! September 28, 2004 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is an excellent source for elegant party ideas and recipes. However, if you have subscribed to Martha Stewart Magazines, you already have seen these ideas. I much prefer the book, however, so I can throw out all those old Halloween issues!
A bit thin - more of a booklet June 14, 2004 3 out of 50 found this review helpful
I preferred the photo of Martha stomping around on her front porch scaring the small children on Halloween in Westport. The parents were furious. It was a priceless picture and showed what a mean spirited person she really is. Sadly the photo is not in the book.
A deep, engaging, and handy reference... June 23, 2003 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
Here it is, the best of Martha Stewart Living Hallowe'en content through 2001! Everything is here, packaged so efficiently and beautifully that even die-hard Martha Mag collectors will want it. There are great crafts, recipes, and costume projects, but the real fun of this book is in simply looking through the pictures and informational bits. Everything is so clever, and presented so creatively! Put it on your coffee table!
Better than you might think! May 5, 2003 38 out of 40 found this review helpful
Being a HUGE Halloween fan, I would have never thought that Martha could have any good ideas for Halloween decorating. Her decorating ideas are always so cute and cheerful, right?How wrong I was! This book has wonderfully dark and gothic decorations that really capture the essence and magic of Halloween. Even the ideas for the kids are tasteful, without being overly cutesy. Add to this great ideas for seasonal food (who knew you could use pumpkin in so many different ways), excellent costume ideas, and party ideas, and you have a great 'grown-up' Halloween decorating guide! And for those reviewers here who complained that the book was only a collection of Martha's previous magazine articles: The title is "Halloween: The Best of Martha Stewart Living". The "Best of" title should have clued you in that this was not brand new material. I'm sure the audience for the book was people like me, who have never picked up Martha's magazine before. I know I buy every Halloween issue now, as well as other seasonal issues.
Halloween by Martha October 25, 2002 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Halloween is a great time of year. I just discovered this book and I was really surprised. It was by Martha Stewart no less! This is not your run of the mill book! The ideas are fantastic and go beyond anything I ever imagined. This is not ordinary stuff here. There are ideas for the house and yard, food and candy and way out ways to make yourself up for the evening. This is a quality publication. There is still time to order!
