I think this book is so much fun! October 23, 2002 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
OK, so Martha Stewart has become a little sketchy, but you can't deny that she has talent. This book has great ideas for decorating, entertaining, cooking, and costumes. We've had a lot of fun with it. (The man-toes and lady-fingers cookies are so funny!) It's great if you're on a tight budget--none of the crafts or recipes cost a lot to make.
Great book July 6, 2002 7 out of 13 found this review helpful
This was a good book, I had planned on using it last year but didnt have to much time but I definitley will be using it this year! Halloween is my favorite holiday i take it pretty seriously. Remeber its says the best of martha stewart living, so that means that its ideas that have already been published in her magazines. I would reccomend also The big book of halloween, if you are looking for other books. Hope you all have a Happy Halloween 2002!
Halloween: The Best of Martha Stewart Living October 22, 2001 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
This book is what I expected: a compiliation of Halloween ideas from past issues of the MSL magazine. If you've saved October issues over the last several years, you may be disappointed that this book doesn't have anything new (but it's convenient to have all these ideas in one place). I'm glad I bought this book, as I subscribed to the mag. just two years ago.Many of the crafts in this book require patience and skill, and really are for adults and older children. I've made simplified versions of the shadow lanterns -- my family's delighted with the results. If you're looking for easier Halloween crafts and projects, there are many wonderful books on the market. My children particulary enjoy _The Halloween Book_ by Jane Bull (DK Publishing), a kid-friendly guide to preparing for the holiday.
The Martha of Halloween October 11, 2001 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I really enjoy the book, seeing that I missed out on the special edition of the magazine last year. I love the photography and the ease of directions and instructional photos(the little dracula kid still weirds me out though) I have spent a year online looking for tasteful but creepy "organic" Halloween ideas. But after all that time, this book still has the best feel. I do agree that some new ideas would have been good.
If you don't already have the magazine.... October 1, 2001 21 out of 22 found this review helpful
....It is a good book. Like the other reviewers, I bought Martha's Halloween magazine last year, and it has all of the same things, with only a few minor changes. I was also very dissapointed with the book, because the magazine was good and I had hoped for more of the same. So if you don't have the magazine, buy the book. If you have the magazine, save your money.... the one or two additional projects don't justify the cost.
