Day 2 of 13 Days of Halloween: Hauntingly Beautiful Dessert Table

Revisiting My 13 Days of Halloween Tablescapes: Day 2 – The Ghost Theme

A few years ago, I embarked on a creative journey, crafting 13 days of Halloween tablescapes. Each day had its own unique theme, and today, I’m revisiting Day 2—our spooky yet elegant Ghost Theme. The ghostly tablescape was an ethereal blend of whites and blacks, designed to create a whimsical atmosphere. The focal point was a dessert table, draped in white linens, with subtle black accents that brought the theme to life.

Tips for Your Own Ghostly Tablescape

Creating your own ghost-themed tablescape is easier than you might think. Here are a few tips to help you get started:

1. Color Palette: Stick to a monochromatic color scheme of whites and blacks. This will create a cohesive and hauntingly beautiful look.
2. Ghostly Accents: Incorporate ghost-themed decorations like the cute ghost face favor boxes or the paper banner available on my Etsy. Simple cut-outs of ghosts can be strung together for an easy DIY project.
3. Dessert Focus: Choose a dessert that matches the theme. A white cake with edible eyes is a great option, but you could also consider ghost-shaped cookies or meringues.
4. Subtle Touches: Use black accents sparingly to highlight the white. Black napkins, plates, or candles can add the perfect contrast without overwhelming the table.

Revisiting my 13 Days of Halloween tablescapes has brought back so many wonderful memories, and I hope it inspires you to create your own ghostly celebration. Whether you’re hosting a Halloween party or simply want to add some spooky elegance to your home, don’t forget to check out the ghost banner on my Etsy shop to add a special touch to your Halloween decor.
