Halloween is a fun time, as you can probably tell its a big time of the year for me (just look at all the posts related to it here) I love the fun nature of the holiday and the fact that everyone can act like a kid.
But… there are safe ways to play and not safe ways to play.
Putting a candle in a pumpkin and letting it burn through the night? NOT SAFE!
Walking around in a dark costume so that no one can see you? NOT SAFE
Luckily these are two dangers that can be easily avoided. For the pumpkin simply use one of our LED candles to illuminate it, they look like real candles and flicker like it too. And for the dark outfits, just bring a couple of glow sticks with you to make sure that you’re easily seen.
A few other safety notes:
only trick or treat in areas you are familiar with
never go off on your own
abide by your local rules regulating trick or treat hours
INSPECT ALL CANDY BEFORE EATING ANY
Have fun and don’t ruin the time for you or anyone else.
Everyone loves to get an award, so why not incorporate that into your next Halloween or dress up party? Some saucy minx find a costume too irresistible to ignore? Well then award her with the Sexiest Costume award.
someone go above and beyond the call and really sever their hand to be the most real looking zombie victim? Or do they look so much like Richard Nixon that you really are afraid that you might be wire tapped? Then award them with the Headless Halloween Award.
Having a more family orientated party and don’t want to scare the begeebers out of an adorable child with a skeleton award, but want them to know how awesome they look? Well then we have the perfect Best Costume Award.
Tie-dye shirts are way in right now. Whether they be used as party giveaways or just to help your group find eachother in a crowd. It seems like they’re more popular now then back when Hendrix wasn’t known and Denver was only a city’s name… Oh the good old days…
But I digress, tie-dye is a great memorable goody-bag item that leaves a lasting impression to everyone who came to your event!
I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this… but your hair just isn’t up to Halloween standards. It’s not scary, or funky, or even different; it’s just the same it has always been… blah.
But that doesn’t have to be the case! No, you can spice up your hair with little effort on you! Two awesome products can completely save your hair from a social faux pas at the next Halloween or dress up party.
Quick easy application (you literaly shake, open, and spray)
Mulitple color options (Silver, Purple, Red, Blue, Green, and Orange)
You can use the same spray over and over or share with friends
Drawbacks:
If you’re in a dark place it won’t show up well
Not the newest thing, don’t expect to be the only one with colored hair
Next up iGlow hair gel. A quick explanation: iGlow is the a hair gel that glows in the dark, it doesn’t need light, or blacklights or anything like that, its literally like a glowstick version of gel, it glows bright on its own for about 6-8 hours!
Benefits:
Extremely cool effect of walking around with glowing hair
New, you’re not going to see anyone else with this!
Comes in GREEN,BLUE,RED,YELLOW, PURPLE,ORANGE and WHITE
You can use some of it now, and some of it later (so long as you only mix what you plan on using for that evening
If you’re a Halloween or party shop you can also purchase them in retail displays!
Drawbacks:
You will get tons of looks, so only use if you like being the center of attention or being the cool kid at the party.
A little bit more expensive then spray
Takes more time to apply (about 5-8 minutes, depending on how much you like to style your hair)
Halloween is coming sooner then anyone thought possible. And with that comes all the decorations that are sure to help celebrate the season. One of the coolest looking decorations is the luminaria, a type of illuminated paper bag that many people use to outline their front yard or walk way. The only problem with these have been that in the past people have used candles to illuminate them and they’ve caught on fire…
Well no more! Our luminaria packages all come with LED flicker candles, that way you get all the awesome look and feel of a real flame without any of the dangerous consequences.
What’s also a great treat is to have your children decorate the luminarias, it can even be a great cub scout / girl scout activity in that its simple, safe, and fun.

Ladies and gentlemen, no longer do you have to make tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions to get Senators, and presidential hopefuls, McCain and Obama to appear at your next party or social gathering. I am happy to announce that you can have the rare pleasure of having both of them side by side in your home for the low low price of only $63.90 ($31.45 each).
How is this possible you ask? Well easily if you order from Windy City Novelties. While not picking partisan lines I can tell you that the 6′ tall Barak Obama and 5′8″ John McCain are both stand up men that you can’t help but want to prop up in front of all your friends.
Just imagine how you’ll be the talk of the town when you announce that not one, but both of the presidential candidates will be in your home or office indefinitely. Although for being in the public eye so much I’m surprised at how little they each have to say, literally nothing. And it looks like their smiles never leave their faces… Maybe they know something we don’t.
Not a political afficianado? Windy City Novelties has the perfect solution with tons of stand-ups ranging from Austin Powers™ to the Three Stooges™.
Introducing the new iGlow™hair gel. It’s actual hair gel that glows in the dark!!! (image a glow stick in your hair).
Simply mix the two packages together to get an amazingly bright styling gel that you simply run through your hair.
No Blacklights, no neon flourescents, just honest to goodness GLOW. The process is simple: 1. Open the Package 2. Read the directions 3. Combine and mix the ingredients in the two packages *(note you don’t have to mix all of the chemicals at once, you can keep some in the pouches for later use) 4. Apply small amounts of the gel to your hair to do a layering affect 5. Go out and party!!!
This item is intended for those 13 and over. As with all chemical products please use this with adult supervision. I once put colored hair spray in my hair without them knowing and they nearly blew their lids!
