My goal was to create a simple rustic Halloween table setting with items I already had. I love how it turned out!
I wanted a raven centerpiece, so I drew three different positioned ravens on cardboard, cut them out with an exacto knife, hot glued dowels cut at different heights, and painted them black. Then I made the base by cutting a circle out of cardboard and covering it with a sheet of moss. To attach the ravens, I cut a small hole in the moss covered cardboard and filled with hot glue before I stuck the dowel in. They look perfect under my glass cloche!
On either side of the centerpiece I placed candles on old pieces of wood I already had. It really adds to the rustic look I was going for.
It wouldn't be a Halloween table without a little "Boo" tag wrapped around the knife.
And of course I put little painted black pumpkins in the bowls!
The placemats are light orange pieces of fabric with frayed edges, and my Pier One crackled glasses work perfectly!
How are you all decorating for Halloween?
