Fast forward...ummm...a few years, and I saw a picture of a table all set for Halloween in purple, green and black. That picture inspired me to have some fun with "pretty" and "cute" Halloween. There's nothing scary on this table!
This candelabra has been in our home for years. I recently spray painted it black. Much better than brass! The three masks I placed in the center are all from the Dollarama!!
When I picked up these place mats this summer on a clearance sale (I believe they were .39) I immediately thought of spider webs! My new little spider plates are so cute. They fit into the color scheme so well. Guess what? They are paper! (shhhhh!!!)
A closeup of the purple, silver and black tablecloth I scrunched up in the center of the table. It has a black tassel on each corner.
These little pantyhose pumpkins are all over blog land this fall. Are they not SWEET!!! I found two different pair of hose on clearance @ Walmart. They are so easily made by dropping a pumpkin down in one leg and tying it off with an elastic. I then cut the excess off and tied a piece of purple tulle around the stem. Just stitch or staple up one end and start again. You can use one leg to cover several of the tiny pumpkins.
My tiny spider votive holder is also from Dollarama!
Women are angels.
When someone breaks our wings,
we simply continue to fly - on a broomstick.
We're flexible like that.

I would never say who this witches hat belongs to. But...my favorite color is purple! ;0)
Happy Halloween!
Please come back Friday for our final Recipe for Pumpkin Month @ Take Six!

Oh Tanya, this is gorgeous! The masks are a perfect touch. You did an excellent job.
ReplyDeleteGreat job - I love the stocking pumpkins! xo
ReplyDeleteTanya.. love those wrapped up pumpkins.. thanks for sharing. I can see me doing this! Your table is lovely. I love the placemats and the spider plates too! Would you teach me how to fluff? the tablecloth in the center is pretty! Yes, this is a downright pretty halloween table.. xo marlis
ReplyDeleteTanya, this is a very cute table, indeed. And that spider on the plate is such an adorable graphic! Love his eyes! And the placemats were the perfect touch, and what a super price on those. You really did a super job on this!
ReplyDeleteHappy Tablescape Thursday...
XO,
Sheila :-)
This is really cool, Tanya. Halloween is not my favorite, either. Were we just odd children or are WE the normal ones? :-) The masks are a great touch, and the placemats DO remind me of a spider web. Very nice! Try to have a Happy Halloween. I will, like usual, be hiding in the house with the porch light OFF! :-)
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute and fun table.Love the little pumpkins with the stockings over them. So fun!

Cute table, Tanya! I really like the purple, lime and black combo. The stocking pumpkins are adorable. Thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteOh what a fun table! I love your use of masks and the cloth in the center...makes for a stunning focal point. Love the stocking pumpkins! cute cute cute!!!
ReplyDeleteThis table is just waiting for a fun party to begin. The stocking pumpkins are new to me and they are an outstanding decoration. My favorite is the granddaddy spider candle holder.....he is a hoot. But then another favorite is your purple witch's hat with the spider webs.
ReplyDeleteI love your non-scary Halloween table! Those masks are so cute, and the placemats work great! I bet I have some unopened pantyhose around somewhere!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Your table looks amazing! I love it!
ReplyDeleteLove it...looks like it is waiting for a Costume Party to happen around it!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis tablescape is simply spooktacular!
ReplyDeleteI created a Mad Scientists lab this past Monday and hope you'll come take a peek and shriek.
Your photography is excellent! Wow, this is gorgeous in a spooky sorta way! The mask is so intriguing, and the witch's hat is cool, too! This is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteLove your table! Thanks for sharing,cute plates, Joann
ReplyDeleteHalllowe'en is my fave holiday for decorating even though I don't decorate and this table setting is fabulous, love the pictures :)
ReplyDeletePurple is my favorite color too ;-). I did a Halloween table too this week but with three boys, we made ours more mad scientist. It was fun but I was longing to do a table like yours. Colorful and sweet. Really, I love everything about it but your stocking pumpkins are to die for!
ReplyDeleteHi Tanya,
ReplyDeleteEverything is beautiful! Your table is gorgeous!!
I used to do the same thing for Halloween...make my costume after supper out of the upstairs hall closet...
Have a great weekend!
All the Best,
Christine
What a wonderful table! I love the color scheme! Your table is elegant and fun at the same time. Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteTanya! I put my arms right up in the air and squealed!!!!! Gorgeous! ahahahahaha such fun!
ReplyDeleteHonestly that is the best Halloween tablesetting I have seen this season! I love the purple! I was one of those kids who LOVED Halloween but every single year I was a gypsy!
ReplyDeleteLove your chosen colors. I think it makes for a fun and colorful table.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun table, love the little pumpkins & gourds wrapped in the netting...
ReplyDeleteI'm with you...I hate Halloween. No spooky gory stuff for me! But I really like your use of purple on the table and how you went for the cute/elegant factor. Would you share this at my party?
