    Forum Description

    Happy Halloween!!  I hope you are getting ready for a fun day with a little treat for yourself thrown in!  I wanted to share a classic take on Halloween with you.  The "Ghouls Night In" theme was fun to share with you for a non-traditional approach to Halloween- and now I want to share a more traditional idea for celebrating Halloween.  This is our table setting for my family for Halloween night.  We will make the same menu that I shared with you- Puff Pastry Pizza with Olive Eyes Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup Carrot and Chickpea Salad Ghost Brownies (shortcut recipe) silver tray with white pumpkin glass bottles and buffet signs for halloween I kept the flower centerpiece the same as Girls/Ghouls Night In, but removed the pink Gerbera Daisies.  I replaced them with orange roses and the cutest mini pumpkin branches.  I found the mini pumpkin branches at Trader Joe's.  They call it a Pumpkin Tree and sell it bundled in branches in the flower section.  Loralee Lewis's buffet signs are my go-to each year.  I save them and use them each Halloween- the sayings are too fun and always bring a smile to everyone who sees them.  I added the candy-shaped gift boxes for a bonus treat at the table.  I put them at each place setting.  I added Halloween candy to them, but you could put a variety of treats in them.  They offer enough space inside to hold small gifts.  I love how easy the candy boxes are to assemble and fill- and they make the cutest presentation. Another favor option is a miniature green plant in a small pot- simply place the plant in the pot, cover the soil with moss (found at craft stores).  I put a tiny pumpkin on the side- it can easily be removed when pumpkin season has passed.  Add a toothpick or wooden skewer "stake" and attach each guest's name by writing the name on paper and taping to the wooden skewer or toothpick. For a little dramatic effect, I topped the tablecloth with green satin fabric.  I like how the green grounds the table and gives a big pop of color.  My son walked by the room and backed up to take a second look.  I loved that it got his attention and he knew there was something special going on in the dining room.  Even though my kids are teenagers, they still enjoy the thrill of holidays. In place of placemats or chargers, I used silver trays.  Don't tell anyone, but I found them at Party City! :)  They look fancy and still give off a little drama- but they are affordable and easy to stack and store.  I use them for party trays or serving trays.  For drinks, I used small "potion" bottles and added Clementine Izze Soda for the kids- you can add a dash a vodka to the soda for an easy cocktail for the adults, if you wish!  To make it easy to sip from the bottles, add a striped straw with a cute straw flag from Loralee Lewis. You can see that I used white napkins with a fringed hem and put the cutlery inside. I draped the napkin over the fork, spoon, and knife and tied with a black ribbon to resemble a ghost.  Such a simple detail, but it is always appreciated and loved.  For plates, I used one of Loralee's paper plates for the salad and a solid white china plate for the pizza. I am thinking the ghost brownies won't last long enough for a plate, but my family will use the white plates for those. For Halloween, I love to use candelabras - I purposely melt down the candles a good bit for the spooky Halloween look with wax drips on the candles- but feel free to use shiny new ones if you prefer!  I added mini white pumpkins and the white pottery ghost candles to the center of the table to fill in all the way down the center of the table.  Lastly, I added simple orange paper lanterns to the backs of each chair. I love the classic fall colors and the simple ways to add drama.  I would love to hear what you do for Halloween- and I would LOVE to see your photos, too!  Please share in the group chats (and if you aren't sure how, please ask!) Happy Halloween, Friends!!  Wishing you a wonderful day and night.  I am so glad you are here!  Come back soon! xo, Lydia
