Here's Looking at You Tablescape

It’s not often that I do more than one tablescape for Halloween, but when I found a bag of these eyeballs in amongst the seasonal decorations, I decided to have a bit of fun with them.

 

A collector of fabric (even though I don’t sew), I am a big fan of J. Wecker Frisch. This fabulous fabric with skeleton hands is called (appropriately) “Hands Off.” I thought that it made a perfect backdrop for this fortuneteller theme table.

 Scalloped edge chargers from Pier One (that everybody seems to have) provide the base for the plaid plates (also from Pier One), and vibrant orange salad plates. Each one is topped with a dessert dish full of black excelsior and a big eyeball.

Witch mugs are from Pier One.

The centerpiece is anchored on either end with the antique crystal candle holders that I used in decorating last week’s table. I found high top Victorian shoes amongst my mother’s things, and added them for a witchy vibe.

 

The skull candle holder, pressed into use as a vase for freshly picked coleus from my garden is from Yankee Candle. If you have not checked out their holiday offerings, that’s a must. The fortuneteller’s booth (isn’t it adorable?), is also from them.

The phrenologist's head generally sets on my night table, but I pressed him into service here. The palmistry hand is a part of my living room decor, so I added it as well.

Join me for dinner. I’ll tell your fortune.
