7 Fall and Halloween Table Setting Ideas – TFT

We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

Welcome to this week’s Thursday Favorite Things! I have rounded up Fall and Halloween Table Setting Ideas all from this party! Tons of inspiration here!

There is also a new rule added to the party in order to be featured. Please scroll down for more information.

First, here’s what I shared this week… an elegant Halloween table inspired by the Phantom of the Opera.

Halloween Party Table – Belle Bleu Interiors

Halloween Table and Decor – Penny’s Vintage Home

Autumn Colors on the Table – Dinner at Eight

“Give Me All the Pumpkins” Table from Pollie’s Place

Maggie’s Dark and Moody Halloween Table – The Sweet Sensations

Glorious Goldenrods Fall Table – Everyday Living

We love all of your posts and enjoy visiting you – there is something for everyone at this party!

Don’t forget to check out our Thursday Favorite Things Pinterest Board!

I pin my features for the week to our board as well as many others! Make sure your posts have a high quality pin that screams “pin me!”

New party rule: In order to have your post featured on our blogs, you must leave at least one of us a comment with your post number(s) (so we know it’s you)! Features will be selected from the comment list!

How do you know what your post number is? After you have added your post to the party in the in-linkz party form, refresh the page or go back to the blog. There you will find your post with a number next to it. In the picture below, Katherine’s Corner’s post is at #1, as demonstrated by the purple arrow. That is where you find your post number. Does that make sense?

I believe we have changed this to have more interaction from our party goers and also because there have been some spamming bots going through link parties right now and we don’t want them!

The party is starts on THURSDAYS at 6AM PST!

Please take the time to stop by ALL of your hostesses!

Cute and Not-So-Scary Halloween House Tour

We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

In this post- Cute Halloween Decor Ideas that are not-so-scary or creepy!

This post may contain affiliate links

Halloween decor does not have to give you the creeps! You can have cute Halloween decor too!

This year I’ve created a Halloween tree.

Now, if you know me, you know that I *love* Christmas and I *love* Christmas trees so any excuse to put up a tree is a perfect excuse for me!

I found this tinsel tree in the Christmas decor section and knew I would take it home with me and put it up promptly!

The Steiff Halloween scared black cats are the ornaments in the tree. As well as a few other creepy items – some potion book ornaments found for a bargain at Tuesday Morning as well a sa pumpkin gourd from a local Fall festival.

A raven also perched itself into the tree. The ribbon is Mackenzie Child’s courtly check ribbon I’ve had for years.

A vintage clapsaddle candy box sits at the bottom as well as my Hedwig the Owl (from Harry Potter, if you are a fan!)

The Halloweentown village sits in the center of the island. There is a haunted barn, mansion, carriage house and train.

It is particularly fun at night – the lights flash and make eerie sounds. The sounds can be turned on and off.

A look at my elegantly haunted table… inspired by the phantom of the opera!

I wrote a whole post about this table earlier this week – check it out here.

Mr. Swan is joining the masquerade party held at the opera!

He is carrying dead roses this time.

Potion bottles add an extra Halloween flair.

My little phantom of the opera nutcracker is haunting the party as well on the left.

The Halloween mantle is extra spooky with the black and white courtly check!

I am not generally into new figurines, preferring antique ones instead, but I do like these little Halloween characters from Lori Mitchell.

The little girl witch riding her broomstick is new this year!

The center pumpkins say BEWARE! I love their miniature size.

A last look at this year’s Halloween house tour!

Elegant Halloween Decorating Ideas – Friday Favorites

We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

I’ve been thinking about Halloween decor since it is October already (where did the time go??)…

…and I’ve been thinking about how to decorate your Halloween house in an elegant way.

So I started searching for inspiration.

You see, I am not so much into the creepy skeleton/zombies/bloody/insects.

There are other ways to decorate for Halloween other than, well IMO, the gross things that give me the creepy crawlies.

Let’s start with below, see, elegant candles, dark moody lighting, interesting florals… You’ll notice a lot of the different pictures have similar themes.

Moody plates, lots of candles…

This was someone’s wedding!!! A Halloween themed wedding!

via Figtree Wedding photography

An elegantly lit pathway….

via ciao newport

a vintage inspired Halloween – elegant and even cute!

via ciao newport

Use items found from your yard- dried clippings, a found bird feather…

via 91 magazine

Use dried florals

via Reinvented Collection

Again, candlelight, moody fabric and lighting.

via coco kelley

For your Halloween party, simply drape your furniture with extra sheets.

An easy project, glue some black lace to simple glass votives.

This staircase below – elegant, but creepy but then kind of cute at the same time. You don’t have to use the creepy noise-making zombies/ghosts/witches sold at the store to have a house decorated for Halloween.

Unless, of course, that’s your thing. But it’s not my thing. These decorating ideas could also work for younger children since they are not quite so scary (although stay around them if you light candles!)

5 Fall Recipes to Try Now!

Looking for some ideas for a Fall menu?

I’ve got you covered here today with 5 Fall recipes covering breakfast, lunch and dinner and dessert!

Try this delicious pumpkin scone – a copycat of the Starbucks version but personally I think it is better and there are definitely less calories involved!

With your pumpkin scone, you can enjoy a homemade pumpkin spice latte as well.

Now for lunch, you could eat my Fall harvest salad. It is so tasty with the apples, cranberries and pecans! Or you can serve a smaller version with your dinner.

I love eating soups in the Fall and one of my favorites is this pumpkin soup recipe. It is a copycat version of one I had in Germany and I prefer it to the American versions.

And last but not least, y’all need to try this apple pie recipe. It is the best.

Hooray it is FRIYAY! Sharing Five different topics today…

Contains affiliate links.

Oktoberfest

Tomorrow I’m hosting an Oktoberfest party with my family. I’m so excited!

I have posted lots of content about Oktoberfest on the blog, so be sure to check it out here.

Halloween

Can I just say that every year I find myself liking Pottery Barn’s Halloween porch?

Also spotted these at pottery barn: buffalo check mug set

Lit Pumpkin Wreath

Outlander

Do you watch the Outlander TV series on Starz? I do!!! I’m so excited about season 3. It is based on the third book, Voyager. That book was my second favorite book. My favorite book of the series was the first one.

Cute Antique Mall Booth

I thought this booth in a local antique mall was pretty cute.

Christmas

Oh, and also… Christmas!! Yes! Spotted these at a store too, aren’t they cute???

I know it is a bit early but I’ve been thinking about Christmas already. Mainly because I am *hopefully* going to be moving into my new house which has in the living room 14′ ceilings which means I have to get a new Christmas tree (because obviously) so I’m been keeping my eye out on flocked Christmas trees to go on sale… anyway…

Almost bought this snowman for my porch, but I have no where to store it right now, so I have to wait… grrrr. it’s okay, it is a little early any way!!
