Alise in Underland - Part 2

The second in our series of three invites is from the White Queen (the first was from the Red queen).

The first gave the date. This, the time. All will be revealed in the third invite.
Apart from the invites we are progressing with the many props and costumes for our themed event. Check these out.

The beginnings of two Cheshire cats that will be black lit. One for the front of the house and one for the back yard. We're trying to figure out how to get the black light to fade in and out as opposed to flickering.

An adult 'Drink Me' Potion (Chambord and Blue Curacao)

The crocquet ball for our game on the front lawn.

A gathering of crocquet mallets. What would you call these? A flock?

The White Rabbits over-sized pocket watch made from a plastic plate sprayed gold, a blow up of an illustration of a watch face and yellow foam sheets to form the chain, which was also sprayed gold.

The White Rabbit's hat. Foam hat from the Dollar Store and bunny ears also from the Dollar Store. The most expensive thing about this was the chequered paper. (12" x 12" sheet from Michael's).

More to follow.

Our favorite time of the year is Halloween. Every year we have a themed Halloween party to promote our business, and more importantly, to have fun! In the past some of my favorites have been our
Voodoo Party

This year our theme is "Alise in Underland" and I decided to post our thoughts and ideas as our plans progress.

This year we decided to send out a series of 3 invites designed to tantilize and perhaps puzzle our guest list
