Creations, A Spooky Centerpiece for Halloween!

Welcome to the monthly Creative Craft Hop

hosted by Sara from Birdz of a Feather

With October on the horizon {how did that happen???}

I am starting to think Halloween…

I’m not a fan of the scary, gory stuff,

but I do love the cutesy fun side of Halloween!

Last year I made a Halloween themed tiered tray

I decided to use some of these small Halloween things

and make a Spooky centerpiece

This wooden box or trough is great for creating long and low centerpieces

Last fall I styled it with pumpkins and dried roses

Slowly Slipping into Fall

I decided the moss that was already in the trough

would work for Halloween,

since it is green and could look creepy

I tucked in several jars of paint to use to support the heavy items

The moss camouflages the jars while they keep

the ceramic Boo container and witch pumpkin

from sinking down into the box

I inserted the candle witch legs upside down into the moss,

using the camouflaged jars to prop them up

Then I continued to add things here and there

I tied a black & purple mesh ribbon on top of the checked ribbon

and added a mini pumpkin bucket

with candy corn to the bow’s center

All set for Halloween fun!
