Don’t you just love all of the fun options for Halloween decorating? I do! Though I enjoy visiting homes who decorate with the spookiest of spooky things, I like to keep it natural and witch spooky in our home when it comes to Halloween decor. bats, spiders, cats, and witch hats are my thing.

I am keeping it simple mixing neutrals with different textures and patterns.

Come on over! Let’s Have Some Fun!

Set the Stage

Instead of a tablecloth or a table runner, I pulled/stretched a bag of faux spider web into a long strand across the length of the table. I hooked the web around all four corners of the tabletop to keep it in place. It creates an interesting subtle texture without taking away from the simple elegance of this tablescape.

FYI! Of course for contrast you could add a black tablecloth to offset the white webbing.

The Centerpiece

  • I started by placing these Two’s Company Set of 6 Silver Vases filled with black root candles and moss down the center of the table avoiding a straight line.

Silver, black, or crystal candlesticks would be pretty too! You can find the Two’s Company Set of 6 Silver Vases on eBay.

  • Go shopping in your yard for greenery. Loosely weave the branches in between the candlesticks.

Place Mats

I picked the up at Home Goods with a table runner to match.

These rectangular or these round neutral with black spiders are a close match to my table. Here are similar versions in white with black spiders. Rectangular/ Round

Clear Glass Plates

I  picked these up at Walmart for just a few dollars. They are great for large groups.

Sparkle Tip: When hosting 20+ for a party, it is always nice to serve horderves on a glass plate. I love to shop at Webstaurant for inexpensive entertaining goodies. Be sure to bookmark Webstaurant.

DIY Glitter Spider Napkin Rings 

I used these octagonal napkin rings and used a removable glue dot to add a glittery spider to each. (I pulled them off the pick.)

Sparkle Tip: Clear napkin rings are great to have on hand for holidays and themed parties. The small themed trinkets you can glue dot on them are endless. A super inexpensive option: Use clear or white shower curtain rings!!!!

White Cloth Napkins

I used white waffle weave dinner napkins for this tablescape for added texture, but you can never go wrong with 100% linen hemstitch dinner napkins.

Pull one corner of the napkin straight through the Glitter Spider Napkin Ring. Place the napkin diagonally across the plate letting one end drape off the table.

Mini Cupcake Stands with Small White Pumpkins add an extra bit of charm to each place setting. Here is a set of solid white. The mini white pumpkins can be found at most every grocery store in the fall.

For an added touch, use a paint pen to add names to each mini white pumpkin for a personalized place setting.
