BFF Open House Link Party #181

The Answer Is Chocolate

Happy Friday Eve and welcome to another party at The Answer Is Chocolate. One week! One week to Trick or Treat time. Question: do you buy candy you like in case you have leftovers or do you buy candy you don't like so you won't be tempted? 

More great Halloween ideas shared at last week's party. Here are some you still have time to do!


If you're looking for an alternative to traditional pumpkin colors, Laura from Pet Scribbles has you covered using metallic paints. 


If you're not planning a full costume for Halloween, you can always add a piece or two of festive Halloween jewelry. Rona at Jewelry Making Journal has a fantastic roundup of pieces that can be made by people of any skill level. 



Don't forget the pets for Halloween! There are so many cute pet costumes out there but I love this idea from Carrie Elle including these adorable tags you can download from her site! 


Lou Lou Girls shared a mouth watering calzone recipe. Perfect Halloween night dinner which would be great paired with this fantastic Halloween dessert that "caught my eye"  from Life With the Crust Cut Off


OK now on to this week's party!

BFF Open House Link Party #179

The Answer Is Chocolate

Happy Friday Eve all! Welcome to another party here at The Answer Is Chocolate. Some wonderful ideas linked up at last week's party. I hope when you link up you're visiting each other. Here are some highlights: 


From Crafty Journal, make a mini Halloween themed Pocket Book using just one sheet of scrapbook paper. 


Heather from Woods of Bell Trees has a wonderful series going called  "Party In A Box" . So many ways to adapt this from parties, showers, housewarming, just because. It is a great idea for prime gift giving season!


Over at ArtsyVaVa, you'll see that the creative apple didn't fall far from the tree. Check out this table that her son made! How cool is this?

This week's chocolate feature is perfect for your Halloween dessert table. Best of all there's absolutely no way to mess it up!


Halloween Cookies and Scream bark from Life With The Crust Off


Now, on to this week's party!

BFF Open House Link Party #166

The Answer Is Chocolate

Happy Friday Eve everyone. Hope you've had a wonderful week. Getting excited to see College Boy for a couple of weeks since he's been doing a Summer Research Project at school and hasn't been home. Maybe because I'm thinking up things to make for him, this week's features are all chocolate! 


Let's start with these tasty little morsels from LouLouGirls. Oreo Balls! Oreos with more chocolate? Yes please! Perfect for a party or to have on hand when you just need a bite of chocolate. 


Then there are these gorgeous Black and White Chocolate Cups from Culinary Flavors



Too hot to bake? Life With The Crust Cut Off has you covered with these no bake Mint Chocolate Bars. 


I couldn't resist featuring another creation from Parrish at Life With The Crust Cut Off and I dare you to resist these no bake S'Mores Cheesecakes

BFF Open House Link Party #165

The Answer Is Chocolate

Happy Friday Eve and Fourth of July Weekend! Hope everyone's had a great week and soccer fans are recovered from the nail biting USA-Belgium World Cup game.  I didn't set out to have all jewelry features ( well except for this week's chocolate feature) but think you'll agree they're pretty cool. 


Let's start with this ingenious creation from Mich in LA, the creative genius who can turn anything, and I do mean ANYTHING , into a gorgeous piece of jewelry. This is no exception. You'll have to check out her blog for the deets. 


Via Life With The Crust Cut Off, comes this wonderful bracelet idea by Michelle from Michelle Lea Designs. You will never guess how the bracelets are formed!


Another fun bracelet idea comes from an unexpected source: PVC pipe. Check out Do It Yourself Fun Ideas for the how to. 

This week's chocolate feature combines the classic flavors of chocolate and peanut butter. Is that ever a bad thing?
