Review by Library Journal Review

Halloween has become the most popular holiday for creative dressing up by adults as well as children. Experienced crafter O'Sullivan (Gifts for Baby) includes full costumes, hats, masks, face painting, and party decor from several designers, all for grown-up wizards and witches. There are step-by-step instructions for turning oneself into a black widow spider, a samurai warrior, or a Jackson Pollock painting. Most materials can be found in fabric and craft shops. Interspersed among the projects are bits of Halloween and harvest lore. This clever book will be welcome in most public libraries. (c) Copyright 2010.
