It's almost that time...when every little goblin comes trick or treating -- so I've set the table for a Halloween supper for my little goblins!
So who's coming to supper?
A little black cat....
...a sweet little devil.....
....a happy jack-o-lantern....
.....and a good little witch.
The smiling jack in the center of the table is one I've had since our kids were trick or treating.
These napkins came from Walmart several years ago and the "rings" were ponytail holders from Target last year.
I've really enjoyed my Treble Clef flatware this year and these placemats are reversible to a toile pattern on the other side....ya gotta love two for one!
Paper Halloween napkins dress up my glasses.
Let's see what's hiding under those masks (from the dollar bin at Target this year). We have black and white checked salad plates from Marshall's I found a few months ago.
The black dinner plates came from Kmart earlier this year.
An overview of the table. Two of my grandgirls are coming for an early Halloween supper this weekend. I'll let them pick out masks and send the other two to my grandgirls in Georgia....wouldn't it be fun for them all to be giggling around the table in their masks?
An overview of the centerpiece ---- I just realized that I didn't get a picture of the scarecrow....that's ok -- he'll make an appearance soon. (He's a little camera shy).
Time to light the tea lights....
.... so smiling Jack can show off his pretty smile!
Good night from the Trick-or-Treat table --- wishing you lots of treats and friendly goblins at your tables. Be sure to visit Susan at "Between Naps on the Porch" this Thursday night for lots of tables set to delight you!
See ya!

Adorable! I know your granddaughters near and far will love it as much as we do. Those checkered plates are so cool, but I really am in love with your flatware. Perfect for so many tables, even Halloween. The masks are such a great touch.

What a cute table! Very colorful and fun! The gkids will love it, Martha!
ReplyDeleteHi Martha, Your grands will be thrilled with the masks! I'll be watching for the scarecrow, as they are one of my favorites. I used the same flatware today--isn't it fun? Linda
ReplyDeleteHow modern and chic! I love the bright colors, this is a steal. Your guests will love it and it certainly works for adults too. Fabulous table and the black plates and flatware really are the perfect foil.
ReplyDeleteMartha I just love how you pulled this together so nicely yet Halloweenie! Great colors! I especially love your little felt masks and those napkin rings!
ReplyDeleteNICE!
RaineyGhoul!
a very bright setting, I have seen the treble clef flatware twice today, I have never seen it before, makes for an interesting table!
ReplyDeleteVery cute table setting! I love the black and white with touches of orange and purple! I so wish I had seen those black gingham napkins a few years ago; they seem so versatile!
ReplyDeleteI like that most of your items weren't really Halloween, but the elements you did add really defined the setting. My favorite things (I think) are the napkin ponytail rings, they caught me eye immediately. I also like the pumpkin on the bed of black shredding, that's a simple idea that has a lot of impact.
ReplyDeleteMartha, this table is adorable! I know your granddaughters will LOVE it! What a clever idea, using the masks to dress up the placesettings!
ReplyDeleteI want to come to your delightful-looking party! I love it all. Would never have even thought to look at pony-tail holders as napkin rings! And, somehow, I never find the $1 bin at Target when there's anything worth having in it. The napkins are so perfect. Well, it's all perfect!
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
Hi Martha, I so look forward to what you come up with each week, and once again you've created something fun and wonderful. In fact, I'm feeling a little guilty about not having done something special for the granddaughters....maybe you've inspired me, but I will have to get to Houston first.
ReplyDeleteI love your table. Who would have thought about the masks - that is very clever. I love those big checked plates too. great find. I'm so glad I stopped in for a quick peek.
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative & cute table, Martha! I love those masks...how did I miss those?
ReplyDeleteThe whole scene is one of fun & revelry...and not so scary for this spooky holiday.
Have FUN!

ReplyDeleteHey there, Martha! I LOVE the masks on the plates. Like Savannah Granny, I too at first thought those were imprints on the plates. Very cool!!!
ReplyDeleteReally a cute table Martha! I love the first shot with the pumpkin lit:@)
ReplyDeleteYour tablescape looks spooktacular! You are so smart to find things on sale one year to use for the next. The masks really add a bright touch to your table.
ReplyDeleteYour little goblins are going to love you table. Love the masks and I can just hear the giggles as they try them on. Love how you put all the black and white together. Perfect centerpiece. That pumpkin looks real!
ReplyDeleteThis is the cutest table. I think I like the black plates the best. I noticed that noone noticed that you also have black leather chairs at your table! I wish all you little darlings could be there with you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute table and I bet your grandchildren love it! I love the masks you've used. That's a great idea that I'm going to keep in mind for my grandchildren.
