Halloween is More than another Fall Event 0
Halloween is a holiday for young and old. It creates an excitement for kids and adults - especially young adults. Kids can't wait to select their costumes. It is a big deal. I see them wandering around the store trying on hats, checking out costume accessories like swords or tiaras. They look at the super hero selection and many of them - even little ones - want to put on the mask of one of the candidates for president!
Halloween is a day when it's okay to be different. No judgment - you get to be who you want to be. And stares are appreciated rather than avoided. The littlest youngsters look forward to costume parades at school. Many young children can't wait for their parents to get home so they can go door to door for Trick-or-Treat. And older kids like to test the waters to see how many of us will help them fill a sack of candy.
Young adults also seem to look forward to Halloween, planning their costumes with the same attention as the youngsters who want to be super heroes. Young adults seem to want to call attention to themselves. Young ladies looking for sexy costumes, young couples looking for ways to dress up in fashion to show their connection. And unlike when I was younger, the parties aren't about bobbing for apples and voting for best costume, they are about having adult fun with libations and food, raucous laughter and late night bar crawls. Yep times have changed, but the interest in Halloween just keeps growing.
Be sure to check the party store website or stop by the store soon to get your Halloween groove on!

Did someone say Halloween 0
f you're like me, once you hear "October," you think "Halloween." Can't help it. As soon as the temps start to change, the days get shorter, and the trees begin to show their fall colors, my mind is already on getting ready for Halloween. There are costume ideas to consider. The party store has dozens and dozens of costumes to select from and even more costume accessories to explore. And new inventory keeps on coming as the party store gets ready for the early bird shopper and the last minute shopper.

Pumpkins and fall decor come in a variety of price ranges, quality and quantities. There's even an entire selection of tableware just for the occasion.
So if you're thinking Halloween, check out the party store in Glenview. We are sure to have something you want!

Your Halloween Store 0
Halloween is just a little more than a month away and we're getting ready at the party store. We know that each year children, young adults, and even older adults (who might otherwise behave in a fairly mature manner throughout the rest of the year) are caught up in the spirit of Halloween. For weeks they plan their Halloween costumes, look for all the best parties, add Halloween decorations to their windows, buy lots of candy, and generally get ready for the holiday that seems to often be accompanied by an atmosphere of reckless abandon. After all, it is All Hallows' Eve!
Our party store has a tremendous selection of clearance costumes that you won't find anywhere else. Throughout the year these items are often selected for theatre or dance. But come Halloween, it's all about the dress up! From the sexy to the sweet, from the scary to the angelic, there's a costume or set of costume accessories for everyone. These accessories are perfect for the DIY'ers who want to be daring and creative with their designs. Whether it's a wig or a hat, a mask or make up, our party store has it.
Stop in or shop on line to get all the best ideas to prepare you for Halloween.

Costumes in July 0

Of course, after thinking about it, I recalled seeing little boys in their Spiderman garb and toddler girls in their favorite Disney princess dresses.It just hadn't occurred to me that a costume was available for purchase any time of the year. Yet, costumes are among the top sellers for the party store.
Sometimes it is a costume for a themed party - other times it is a costume for a photo shoot, a dance party, and sometimes just for kicks and giggles! And the ability of some people to be creative with a selection of costume accessories never ceases to amaze me.
So if you are looking to fly at your next party, we have wings - angel wings or butterfly wings, some for kids; some for adults. If you're looking for a disguise there are wigs and make up and any number of costume accessories. The only thing you need do is search the online catalog and let your imagination soar.
