Plan now for a frightfully fun Halloween table setting

0

Halloween is on a Friday this year, and while the beginning of the night may be about trick-or-treating
and time with the kids, there is time for adult celebration afterward.
Hometalk, a home and garden social network, has these ideas to throw an eerie yet elegant Halloween
dinner party. From dreadfully delightful décor to frighteningly festive furnishings, here’s a roundup of
some table settings:
• Creepy Runner: Ripped cheesecloth or shredded black webbing make great table runners, and can be
arranged messily around platters and bottles for a creepy clingy texture.
• Candles and Candelabras: Set up different heights of dramatic candle holders and candelabras. To create
the illusion of bloody, dripping wax, try melting a red crayon over the tip of a long plain candle.
•Gargoyle Centerpiece: Really looking to spook guests? Place an intimidating gargoyle yard statue in the
center of the table – the ultimate stare down.
• Spooky Utensils: Switch out regular drink bottles for glass bottles labeled with poison warnings and
skull and crossbones.
•Un-Welcome Signs: Decorate the entryway of the dining room with warning and "keep out" signs,
to keep with the Halloween spirit and theme.
