Haunted Houses on a Halloween Tablescape

I found this tablecloth at HomeGoods a few years ago. They also had it with black as the dominant plaid color and I bought that one too. You have seen my Halloween tablescapes with lots of black and orange. If you read my blog and look at the different Halloween Tablescapes you can see how I use some of the same pieces over and over again with different tablecloths and other elements to make different table settings. When I started tablescaping years ago I knew that Halloween would be a major tablescaping holiday for me so I started collecting the basics; black and orange dinner plates, black and orange goblets, black flatware, etc. so I would always have the basics to start with on a Halloween table.

I found this Haunted House appetizer or tidbit plate several years ago on Ebay. It was part of a set of four plates made by 222 Fifth (PTS) starting in 2012 and the series was called Wiccan Lace. This series also included a witch, a skull, and a cat. You ca see a couple of them on other Halloween tablescapes that I have done.

The next plate down in the plate stack is a simple black porcelain plate made by 10 Strawberry Street and called Classic Black Porcelain. I bought them at HomeGoods several years ago.

This white salad plate was made by Wedgwood and the pattern was called Intaglio. I like the designs on the lip of the plate. I bought them at HomeGoods several years ago.

I love this orange dinner plate, the vivid orange color, the ruffles on the lip, and the heavy melamine design all make it a perfect plate for Halloween. I bought them several years ago online at Dillards.com and they were called Summer Oasis Zoie Vintage Dinner Plate. If I could only save a few dinner plates from my collection for tablescaping, this plate would be one of them.

These black glass Starburst chargers are called Charge It and they were made by Jay. I bought them several years ago on Amazon. They are heavy glass and work well with many different color schemes. They are in constant use on my tablescapes every October.

This black stainless flatware set is Ginkgo International LePrix. I have had it for several years, I’m not sure where I bought it. You can still find it for sale online. It gets a lot of use this time of year but I actually use them at other times of the year as well. If I were starting a flatware collection for tablescaping, black would be one of the first colors I would buy.

These bright orange napkins probably came from HomeGoods or Pier 1 several years ago. Someone on Etsy made the black metal haunted house napkin rings for me. I love metal napkin rings because they won’t break and they will last for a long time.

I bought these black house place card holders on Ebay a couple years ago. I think they were made by Hearth and Hand Accents with Magnolia originally. They are perfect for a Halloween table setting.

The orange goblet on the left was one of the first goblets I bought many years ago, I think I bought them at Ross or T.J. Maxx. I remember thinking that I would probably not use them very much but I sure do this time of year. Just fyi, in the spring and summer dollar stores often sell plastic goblets like this design in bright colors. You will probably see these goblets again this Halloween season. The goblet on the right with the black bowl and clear stem was made by Classic Touch and it is called V-Shaped Water Glass, Black With Clear Stem. I bought them at Houzz online a couple of years ago. I seem to be using these two goblets on almost every Halloween tablescape this year!

I found this haunted house lantern at Roger’s Gardens in Corona Del Mar, California a few weeks ago. As soon as I saw it I knew it would be a perfect centerpiece for a Halloween tablescape. I love the design and you can put a battery candle inside.

I love this black and orange plaid tablecloth, no neutrals for me!
