Jack-O'-Lanterns on a Halloween Tablescape
Halloween tablescapes are some of my favorite table settings to create, combining black and orange together immediately creates a festive look on the table. This tablecloth probably came from HomeGoods several years ago. I picked it to match the square salad plates.
I found these jack-o’-lantern square salad plates on Ebay earlier this year. They are a heavy ceramic and they were made by inHomestylez. I love all the different facial expressions.
This is a Fiesta square dinner plate in the color Tangerine. I really love this color but it has been discontinued. It is the perfect plate for a Halloween tablescape. I used it on a books themed Halloween tablescape three years ago. You can see that tablescape here. I bought these plates online from Replacements.com a few years ago. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying dinner plates here.
I needed a basic square black charger and I found these on Amazon a few years ago. They are melamine and they were made by American Atelier. I think you can find similar ones online. If you are a Tablescaper, it’s a good idea to have basic plates in neutral colors that you can use over and over again on your plate stacks.
I wanted another set of black flatware that was all black and different from my Ginkgo International LePrix set to use on my Halloween tablescapes this year and I found this set a few years ago on sale at Macy’s online. It was made by Lenox and the pattern is called Portola. I love the simple design and shiny black color. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying flatware here.
These black cotton napkins came from Crate and Barrel a few years ago. They are a really nice cotton fabric. The jack-o’-lantern napkin rings came from Ebay a few years ago. I like jack-o’-lanterns with friendly facial expressions.
I found these Department 56 Mercury Glass Jack-O’-Lantern place card holders on Ebay a few years ago. I love place card holders, they can add such a fun element to a themed tablescape.
I think I bought these orange goblets at Ross or T.J. Maxx several years ago. They were some of the first goblets I bought when I started tablescaping. I love using them this time of year. I have black goblets that are shorter than this goblet and black goblets that are much taller than this goblet but I wanted goblets this height. I was delighted to find these black plastic ones on Amazon this past Spring. It said that they are disposable but I plan to keep them for a while until I can find some black glass ones that are the same height. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying goblets (including the colors I use the most) for your tablescaping collection here.
I found this jack-o’-lantern blowmold on Mercari online a few years ago. I love using it on my Halloween tablescapes. I can’t believe I found such a perfect Halloween centerpiece. I’m not sure how old it is but it looks vintage. I have had really good luck finding unusual things on Mercari. I wanted it to sit a bit taller on the table so I set it on a small black glass cake stand I have. I think I found the cake stand at HomeGoods several years ago. I used this same centerpiece on a vintage style Halloween tablescape a few years ago. You can see that Halloween tablescape here.
I truly love working on Halloween tablescapes, they are some of my favorites to create.
