    Halloween is just around the corner! While the kids get to plan their trick-or-treating and organization of Halloween candy, adults are sometimes left out of this fun! Plastic pumpkins with faces aren’t my jam and neither is putting spiders all over my door.

    Today, I’m sharing how to create a quick and fun Halloween table scape. This includes a DIY for your own faux chalkboard tablescape sign and decorating with branches that you can find outside your door along with two fun recipes!

    As I stopped by Sam’s Club, I stocked up on some Tyson® Chicken Patties and Hillshire Farm® Lit’l Smokies® smoked sausages to prepare for a fun gathering of ghoulish friends!

    I stocked up on enough to have some left over after the party! The following are the recipes that I planned out for the fun haunting party.

    Faux Chalkboard Tablescape

    Supplies

    • black poster foam board
    • white chalk marker
    • frame stand
    • pencil

    1. Here are some great ideas for phrases:

    Eat, Drink and Be Scary!
    Don’t make me get the flying monkeys
    Double, double toil and trouble
    Fire burn and cauldron bubble
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself … and spiders!

    2. Cut the foam board in a size to fit your tablescape.
    3. Use one of the phrases to pencil outline your poster board. Be sure to include spiders, cats, witches and goblins!

    4. Use the white chalk marker to trace the outline.

    5. Place it on the frame stand.

    Bat Branches

    • pen
    • bat template

    1. Get a few lightweight branches and place them in a vase or surrounding your lighting (make sure your anchor is strong enough).

    2. Cut out the bat template. Use them to outline using the pen on the black foam sheets. Once cut, poke small holes to thred in the fishing line.
