Halloween Table in the Great Hall

It's time to celebrate with all of the family,

for a big Halloween party, so for the first

time ever, the Halloween dinner is taking

place in what we lovingly call

The Great Hall.

A little furniture gets moved out, but most of

it gets pushed back, and we can seat twenty in here,

in the living room.

You can see one of Beaulah's friends down

next to the fireplace.  Yes, they have flown in

to celebrate Halloween with us.

I used two black and white striped rounds

set on the diagonal,

to top the two six foot folding tables,

and those were topped with a cutout black

spiderweb tablecloth, and finally

a spider web runner, that ties the two

tables together.

My inspiration for this family friendly table

were the fun goblets that I found at Dollar Tree.

At $1 each, even the little ones can be trusted

with a goblet, and THEY LOVE THAT!

I used some of my white square plates, 

which I got several years ago from Home Goods,

and I was able to purchase 24 of them, so they

are perfect for a family crowd.

I topped them

with an assortment of fun Halloween salad

plates, also all from Home Goods over the years.

A giant spider webbed candelabra 

anchors the center of the table, with lots

of fun goodies running the length of the table.

Notice some of my fun Halloween Bristle Brush trees

to decorate the center of the table.

Glittery black pumpkins, which were purchased

last year from Home Goods, but which never

got out of the package are all over the table.

I pulled in my mercury glass container 

that I made this year, and a scary crow.

 Of course, creepy hands are always showing

up everywhere during Halloween.

Black and white is the theme, but there is a touch

of color here and there.

My black flatware is the perfect spooky touch

for the table.

Four different salad plates worked perfectly

and made the table more interesting.

Don't be afraid to mix and match on your tables.

Here is a shot of one of the Halloween goblets

with the sparkly spider webbed runner in the background.

The runner was another purchase from last year,

that never got used.

Looking this direction, you can see another

of Beaulah's friends.  Of course the kiddies

love to see them attend any party.

 So pick your poison, and have a seat,

we have room for lots.

Of course, costumes are required!

Thanks for joining us in the Great Hall!

We will be partying with
