FIVE Scary Snowflake Patterns

One of my fondest memories of elementary school was being taught how to cut snowflake patterns out of folded white paper. 

The first time I made one I thought I was freakin' Merlin. 
"MAGIC!  I have performed magic using only these scissors and this plain piece of white paper!  Voila!  Look at my craft and bow down before me!" I thought... in my head, not aloud.  Tsk.  As if.  They would have locked me up had I bellowed that like Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes...

The thought I had soon after cutting out a few, and I swear this is true, was, "Hmmm... I wonder how I can make scary stuff using the same trick." 
Well YEARS later, and thanks to the wide wide world o' webs, people have been doing that very thing. 

So here are links to 5 different SCARY SNOWFLAKES you can make to scarify your tree, decorate your place, or to just give a little Halloween twist to the holiday.

Holiday Gift Guide: VIDEOGAMES for a Halloween Addict 2011

In some ways video games have the ability to immerse us in a scary world better than any movie ever could.

As the holidays usually give us time away from our jobs, and duties, why not use some of that downtime to turn down the lights and immerse yourself in one of the scary picks below.

Holiday Gift Guide: BOOKS for a Halloween Addict 2011

To me, the holidays are a time to slow down and take a breather.
Like running a marathon, crossing December 24th is akin to crossing the finish line and taking a moment to rest from a year's hard run.

Christmas Day usually finds me unwrapping a new book, throwing some wood on the fire, shutting off the TV and delving in to page after page of quiet wonder.

Sometimes that book comes in the "coffee table" variety:  oversized, hardcovers with tons of glossy photos to pore over.  Other-times,  it's solid print on a genre dear to me:  things that go bump in the night.  Nothing like giving yourself a chill while the fireplace crackles.

Following are ten tomes that run the gamut from collections, to kids books, to coffee-table varieties.
All would be perfect for the Halloween Addict in your life, perhaps even yourself...

Holiday Gift Guide: WINES for a Halloween Addict

The holidays are a festive time for food, friends and libations.
Why just settle for a grocery-store-bought "red" when you can inject a little scary into your wine selection.  To guests who don't care, it's still wine in a glass.  To yourself and other Halloween Addicts, it's injecting a little scary into your ho-ho-ho.

So here are ten scary reds to give as gifts or to hide amongst the red and green on your table.  (Be sure to check my earlier post HERE to get yourself edu-ma-cated on some other tricks to make your wine taste better.)

Holiday Gift Guide: ORNAMENTS for a Halloween Addict

Here's the issue:  Halloween ornaments are generally released in October but Christmas trees go up in December.  If you don't plan ahead, you could be coloring snowflakes with black sharpies, painting jack o' lantern heads on your snowmen and hanging tinsel while pretending it's silver "spider webs."

Thank goodness we have the internet.
