Trick or Treat Tablescape





It's almost here! Halloween! I can't wait!

Tablescape Thursday is brought to you by Susan @ Between Naps on the Porch. Be sure to visit all the talented participants!

Now I don't usually set a table for Halloween, but I thought it would be fun to set up a "Candy Bar" and maybe inspire you! I've been having too much fun editing some photos too...hope you enjoy!









Now if you are planning a Halloween Bash, look at this idea from Eddie Ross. He was kind enough to have the template to make these wonderful bat napkin rings on his blog! I had to give it a try!



I only had black napkins, so I added a little bit o' glitter and some spooky spider webbing. They are super simple to do and actually, I even had the felt in my stash-I bet you do too!

Good ole' Martha still has these labels on her website, I did a little coffee staining and insta-vintage!





I love the black and white with the orange and green! It's a more fun and festive than scary, we have a lot of really young trick-or-treaters.

Thanks for visiting me and Happy Halloween!

  8. Cute, cute, cute as a bug's ear! Honey, you got it going on! I love your Halloween tablescape. And boy do I love Tootsie rolls. Can't buy them cause I can't stop eating them once I do. You're going to scare your fair share of young trick-or-treaters. Oddly enough, we never get any in our little cul-de-sac. Guess we're a bunch of old fuddy duddies or something!
