Kids Halloween table




I am not usualy one to  do scary tablescapes. This just about as scary as it gets.

I made the little lamp shades to fit a goblet and used battery tea lights. He is a casper like ghost.

A friendly old witch. the skull is creepy.
Each lamp shade is different. I used a heavy weight card stock cut to size and painted them black. I used paste on critters.I made pattern using another lamp shade and fitted to an amber goblet.
A happy ghost


It has pumpkins on each side and says hope you have a scary Halloween. these were made with small milk carton .Painted and decorated.
Another happy ghost

This is my son"s goblet. I wanted to scare him lol

Toilet paper roll covered with black satin and tiny ghosts

Glass  eyeballs floating upside down

Paper napkins in a skull cup

Another lamp for Katie

Place setting. Found cute paper plates with felt for color over white plates

I added glitter on shades for more sparkle

See the skull

Somethings just don't work.


We have large crows in the area

This one perched on witches head

Found my black shades.



Black wiggly bats and skeletons.


Another funny bat

I love gum drops

It even scares me.

It even scared  the rat

Long view

Whew this was very time consuming. Hope you don't have a scary Halloween http://betweennapsontheporch.net/

Hi, Vernice! Doggone it...I missed this one a few weeks ago. You really went ALL OUT on it!!! I love that first picture and how you gave it a really spooky feel. That's cool editing!

I remember a couple of years ago when you did some crafts using bath tissue or paper towel rolls, and you've done it again! What a great idea for napkin rings!!!

So it's not just me who can't get those doggone eyeballs to float the right way?? I can never get them to act right!

You did a good job with the skull. I like the bloody effects. I'm with you on not particularly liking the gore associated with Halloween, but it's still fun to create that kind of ambience just for fun. Some little kids aren't fazed at all by it! I'm an adult, but it always creeps me out!! :-)

I'm going to hop on over to your newest post. I glimpsed at it earlier, and it looks like a goody!
