My Halloween Decorate...for today :)

I thought I would share with you some of the decorations I have been doing.  Up to today my camera has not been cooperative.


This is a side table I have in my dining room.  Because of the love I have for the color pink I have not decorated for Halloween in several years but reading your posts and seeing your pictures have inspired to see what I could come up with.
This is my dining room table.  I got the chargers at Michaels and are really candle holders, they have rhinestones all around the edge of them.  The checkered plates are from Target and are also candle holders.  I had a hard time finding white pumpkins and I am going to take the largest one and paint it pink and put some lace and roses on it :)  I took some checkered ribbon and put bows on the glasses and the sherbet thingys .  The rat and the "Creepy" I also got from Michaels, the black wine glasses I got at Dollar Tree as well as the menu sign, the checkered pumpkins I got at Target in the dollar section but they were $2.50.  Also made cake trays with Dollar Tree clear plates and candle holders just glued them together.  Took some wine bottles and put Halloween labels on them.
This little graveyard is my centerpiece for my dining room table...isn't it cute?
This silver tray I got from Dollar Tree and I am going to spray paint it black.
Oh and here is my girl Lexus...she goes with my theme of black and white on my table which reminds me I can't keep her off the table she likes to get up there and lay there and get the skeletons in the graveyard for me,  Such a helper

So I guess that's it for now
Thank you for visiting!!!  And this is so much fun, I look forward every day to look at peoples blog and their pictures.

I think the graveyard is perfect. What a wonderful assortment of goodies you found.
I have to say I would love chargers with rhinestones around them, even if they are for candles. Who cares, your table looks fantastic, Char

Oh, this is just too cute! I think black and white is the way to go for a Shabby French Halloween. I love the plates and the graveyard is too cute. I think the silver tray gives it class!
Hugs,
Olivia

I, too, decorate in pinks (and pastel colors) so I also find it difficult to decorate for Halloween (and fall in general) but you've done a pretty good job making it work for you. God bless the person who came up with white pumpkins. :)

Also wanted to say, welcome to blogging! And thanks for stopping by to visit me.

Suzann, I found you through Cindy's blog and then read your bio. I live across from Traverse City on the Wisconsin side...and I used to live in Ft.Myers, FL. About the same time you were moving to Orlando (a place I love) I was moving to the Midwest. Wanta trade spots? Especially just before the snow flies.

I think that you and I have a lot in common...and I am going to sign up as your newest follower. Now..I must warn you I have a wicked sense of humor so prepare for my visit!>) I also had a tuxedo cat (Mr.Midnight) that looks a lot like your own. My last house was all shabby chic and now I am in a waterfront home that is a little different. I miss my Shabby Chic...like I said before...ya wanta trade places? You will love Blogland!!! Diana

You are very creative. I love all the black and white. I miss decorating, but not so easy while remodelling. Maybe next year.
