Tablescapes, The Witch is In!

the Painted Apron

8 years ago

When sweet Chloe from Celebrate & Decorate suggested this hop, she said we could do anything Autumn, Halloween or Thanksgiving…{see all the links at the end of this post]

Since Autumn is slow coming to the deep South, I’m afraid I went a little rogue with my post today, and did not do a wonderful fall tablescape, full of fall foliage, pumpkins, and fine china

I can’t quite concentrate yet, on setting an autumn table for family and friends, or think of Thanksgiving…

I have to get in a little Halloween mischief first…nothing says fall better than a spider or two!

What could be more fun than visiting a witch today and see how she sets her table!

Welcome my pretties! Come in, come in!

I have so much to show you but before we begin

Set your worries aside and proceed with a grin!

I’m so glad you found my house today

It’s on the corner of Spooky Street and Witches Way

Look for the parking sign by the sparkly broom, I’ve left you a spot, there’s just enough room

What you don’t have a sparkly broom?? It’s THE lastest thing, you must get one soon!

October is on the horizon my dear,

My most favorite-est month of the very whole year!

I’ve been decorating and dusting my cobwebs for you

Brewing potions, and spells, there’s so much to do!

I’m so glad you could stop by for a bite

Your place is all set, no worries no fright

The cauldron of soup is bubbling away

It’s Cream of Spider, the soup of the day!

Don’t mind those creeping witches, they’re just passing through,

When they found I was cooking, they feared being tossed in the stew!

I’ve tidied my desk, it was quite the mess

I’ve begun making a list, for my very next dish

Help yourself to an apple

They’re not poison I promise

I might be a witch, but I’m really quite honest

I’m one of the good ones you see,

You’ve heard of the good witch, well, that would be me!

Have some Love Potion, it’s there by the crow

He’s blind as a bat…, he’ll never know!

Stock up on sweet eats,

It’s almost time for Trick or Treat!

Don’t forget your striped tights

And polka dot shoes

With your sparkly broom, you’ll be making the news!

Thank you for your visit!
