I finally received my Spooky Halloween dishes from Country Door and I am so happy with them ! Today the witches will be the first to dine with them .
The crystal is waiting to be filled with a bloody glass of wine.
Spiders with fur will scan the tables before they are used for a potion!
I took an old wine bottle , painted and distressed it and tied a little raffia on it.
A pickle jar was turned into a mummy using white torn sheet material and some light brown paint. Add eyes and you have a cute recycled decoration.
For a mere 20.00 these dishes are well worth it I'm sure every witch will agree.
The witches will be sure not to miss any important calls!
These cute little string of ghosts are strung from one chair to another , that was a $ store find.
You can use some spider webbing also from the $ store to create some realistic smoking look. The spiders are also $ store.
Scary hands attached to the plate stand will creep out all the guests.
Doing a table scape for Halloween is so much fun, I have to tell you a really funny story... A few years ago when I came back to Florida my daughter and I decided we would do a spooky table out in the covered porch for Halloween so we started early in the day it looked really cool . We wanted to put some realistic tone to it so we took strawberry syrup the kind you can mix with milk and did all the rims of the glasses to look like real blood . So when we done e went in to eat lunch. When we came back out about an hour later the whole table setting was covered with bees .. we laughed so hard but we finally got rid of them before the trick or treaters came.
It has been fun today and thank you for coming to lunch so now I'll hop on my broom and go thrifting! bye bye Stop on by The DIY Showoff for some great inspirational ideas! http://diyshowoff.com/category/other/that-diy-party/
