This was such a fun, fabulous table to put together! I wanted to create something unique this Halloween season on top of our more traditional, kid-friendly Happy Halloween Collection!
Theme Inspiration:
My inspiration came from the purple glitter trees and a plaque that I found at HomeGoods. I wanted to put a glam, glittery, sophisticated spin on a Halloween party. I decided on a color scheme of dark purple and black with a hint of lime. I enlisted the help of my friend Jess of Pen 'N Paper Flowers to create the "sassy witch" silhouette which I then developed the theme around.
Table Decor:
I used cake stands, plates, wine glasses, damask boxes and candleholders that I already had on hand. I love using tissue paper poms, and ordered the perfect colors from Pom Love. A gorgeous purple flower hair accessory from Banner Boutique was a perfect girly focal point with a little creepy spider on it! Our intern, Serena (yes, we have one now!) asked how she could help and I had her create the scalloped favor bags using her Silhouette machine! So cute, right? Once that project was done, she was ready for more, so I asked her to make black crepe paper rosettes for the trees! Aren't they fabulous? She took it upon herself to do a little hunting for goodies and brought me all sorts of black/purple spooky items! I ended up using her spider web tablecloth as the backdrop, small candy jars and a pumpkin she found at Hobby Lobby! Thank you, Serena!
Desserts & Treats:
Specialty oreos were made by Kim of Sweeties, which are always a perfect addition to any dessert table! I finally visited a new local candy shop, Sweeties and found tons of options for purple candy for the jars! I picked up the lollipops, damask cupcake liners and green "eek" cups at my grocery store! Great finds! My mom & I made the cupcakes, ding dong spiders and truffle pops!

ReplyDeleteLove it! What did you use for the legs on the Ding Dong spiders? It sort of looks like black licorice but I can't tell. They would be fun for my daughter's class and the "kids" halloween collection I purchased from you!

Yes indeed! You just had the best dessert ever. Truffles do have an effect that uplifts ones spirit, actually all chocolate dies, but having something that is both an upper and delicious, that is something special.
