Fiesta Friday – It’s What’s Inside That Counts

Today, we’ll focus more on your indoor decor. Although you’ve tricked out the table, especially if you are having a spooky soiree, you need the rest of your home to be just as festive! Set it all off with my favorite prop, Pottery Barn’s rockin’ spooky house wall mural. I love, love, love how the contrasting table decor really pops off the black and white setting.

I spied this at Target; the Coffin Mister is perfect for a ghoulish corner tabletop. An easy DIY, check out these spiders that swarm spooky corners lit with votives. Turn the lights down and turn up the spooky Halloween atmosphere with Ballard Design’s Halloween lighted bags and spooky candelabra.

You all know I love my candy buffets. Jean M’s candy vases and these voluminous Camilla canisters, can be easily found at your favorite housewares stores. I’ve found my similar canisters at Marshall’s for a fraction of the price (aaack…did that just sound like their commercials?) Horchow’s Queen of Mean figurine and skull masks are unique conversation pieces that are sure to give your guests the chills.

Run to your local Pier 1 and recreate their fabulous Glamour Ghouls party; SPOOKY sign, spider web wall decor, glitter candleabrum, Halloween cookie totes, flocked flower pillows, chalk note stemless wine glasses and jars, BOO candles. I can’t wait to go and check it all out, I have to go sans kids, or I’ll spend the whole time saying “Don’t touch that” “Be careful” “I can’t see you, you can’t see me” ten trillion times, and will not be able to enjoy myself.
