I must say, I’m just over the moon with how everything turned out. To round out the food portion I wheeled in my trusty bar cart full of candied apples, cake, and a sweet little takeaway tied up in burlap bags. The walking dead bowl was filled with dry ice and my favorite wine, and the warm bourbon punch served in festive glasses. I kept the serve-yourself table simple with a moody cheese board, mini black eyed pea salads, and fried chicken sliders. Lastly, I enhanced the overall look with dripping dried moss and dried moss branches (which is my favorite way to get that spooky look), spiders, faux crows, chains, and skulls. I highly suggest investing in mercury glass pumpkins as they can easily transition well past Halloween and right on to your Thanksgiving table. My everyday lanterns were filled with black candles and flanked by plenty of mercury glass pumpkins. And while you can grasp the direction I was going from the pictures, I wanted to provide a few easy takeaways to help you create this look on your own.įor the overall color scheme I opted for a pallet of blacks, silvers, greys and natural linen. So instead of orange and black everything and grotesque themed food I set out to create a more elevated and classic look. And kitsch, unlike Halloween is just not my thing. However Halloween, like many holidays, can sometimes be accompanied by a lot of kitsch. A few months ago Jezebel Magazineasked me to put my spin on one of my favorite holidays, Halloween.
