These party pics bring the biggest smile to my face.  The happy monsters must have made someone’s little “monster” crazy happy!  I am just so impressed with how all of the details tie together and how cute and modern everything looks together. This is not just a great birthday party idea, but it’s perfect for a Halloween too!

The idea behind the theme was to make the tablescape and party look like a Monster’s dining room.  I especially like the oranges that have been cut up  to look like monsters.

If you wanted to add some candy to this party theme and make a really great candy buffet, here are 5 candies that would really compliment this theme:

• Peach Rings
• Orange Fruit Slices
• Teenee Beanee Island Breeze Jelly Beans
• Blue Raspberry Rock Candy
• Hammond’s Cotton Candy Whirly Pops
