Decorating Your Halloween Table on a Budget!
Sarah Pavia
I’m obsessed with Halloween. I legitimately cannot get enough.
And I’m especially obsessed with decorating my dining room table for the holidays! (Did you know I decorate for others too?) While generally I show how I decorate my home with Goodwill finds, I couldn’t help but share some bargain hunting I did at Target to get the items you see here today. It may not be secondhand, but it’s all $5 or below and I just wanted to show off the goods ;-)
There are some thrifted items on the table - the white dinner plates for example, the small Halloween bowls, the candleabra (one of my favorite finds ever!) and a few of the black skulls. But for the most part everything else is clearance at Target or in their Dollar Bins. The runner was also on clearance this past summer for $2.38 and I found the black lace at Goodwill which I cut up and put as sections over the runner - perfect!
Whenever I see seasonal items on sale, like the black chargers, I make sure to pick them up if I can use them for a different season’s decor. I knew the black would be perfect for Halloween - and they were Hearth and Hand marked down to only $.88 a piece! The same was true for the small dinner plates and the napkins, they were all seasonal clearance at one point and I started accumulating the items with a vision for Halloween. So while it may not be thrifted it’s still repurposed so that counts ;-)
Each of the pumpkins were in the dollar bin area and I scattered them throughout on the runner. Less can be more and while I kept things in a similar color scheme here it only took me a minute of playing around with the table to come up with this creation.
A few simple finds and voila, I have a fun black/white themed Halloween table! Perfect for a ghoulish and spooktacular meal!
