Hostess With The Mostess

One of the latest Halloween party trends is using color palettes that consist of non-traditional orange and black.  This collection includes sophisticated purples, black and white along with a beautiful damask pattern that adds a chic look.

This was such a fun table to style.  I wanted to create a unique and sophisticated Halloween collection this year in addition to our more traditional styles.  By decorating with many pieces from my home and adding some sparkly accents, the result was a chic and polished look and one that's elegant while still centered on the holiday.

My inspiration came from the fancy candelabra and sparkly purple candles I found at Michaels.  I thought it would be a unique way to display the cupcakes by placing them on top of the candelabra which created a fresh twist to the centerpiece for the table. I incorporated purple candies and sweets throughout the dessert table.  I found additional pieces from Michaels such as the feather wreaths, candy holders, glittery spiders and pumpkins.

I pulled accent pieces that I had in our home such as the black frame, candle holders, martini glasses and cake stand and incorporated them for the table. I added black ribbon and tied bows to the wreaths as well  the frame for a pretty touch.  The favor boxes were purchased at Hobby Lobby and one of our favor tags from the collection along with a matching ribbon added the perfect touch!

Many thanks to Sugar Mama's Bakeshop for the fabulous cupcakes and La Patisserie by Luxe Sweets for the amazing macarons.
