Monster Mash


Welcome to Tablescape Thursday! Please visit Susan at Between Naps on the Porch, our hostess for this event.
~~~
For this week's Tablescape Thursday I didn't do a traditional, dining-type tablescape, but rather vignettes with my two Halloween trees.
I have been haunting (pun intended!) eBay and Amazon in search of Halloween ornaments, and I've bought a ton. Mr. Maison is going to behead me if I buy one more ornament!
First off: Please ignore the ugly cords hanging down. Before we bought our house and remodeled the kitchen there was a peninsula cabinet here, and a place for a wall phone (remember those?!). Anyway...we have a devil of a time (another pun intended!) getting electricians, plumbers, dry-wallers, and such, so the ugly cords still dangle.

This cute flicker candle is from Colonial Candle...


Would you care for some ghoulade?


It's hard to tell, but there's skull-shaped ice cubes floating in the ghoulade...

Ghoulade not to your liking? Then have some mulled wine...



I love this cheeky little guy...




I followed Gollum's cue with this Halloween tree made of just twigs gathered in the yard...





I love these candy corn Kisses!


Don't forget your treat on the way out...



Gnarled black tree: Lenox
Flicker candle, candy bowl, votive holders and wall clings: Colonial Candle

  6. These are some wonderfully scary decorations, Tammy. You've set them out in very creative ways.
    I have the same problem with some cords at my kitchen desk. Stupid builders!! I intend to make a criss-crossed ribboned display board to hide them. Perhaps you could hang a picture over yours? Frustrating, I know.

  15. Hi Tammy,
    Great fun! I'm thinking there's a Halloween tree (or two) in my future! Definitely an inspiring post ... scary too! But not terrifying ... ;)

    Happy Halloween!
