DIY Halloween Crafts On A Budget: Part 5

As promised here is the Halloween Romance Dinner Table Theme Premier, in which I created the upcycled Snoop Dogg Vampire Wine Bottle especially for.  As I stated before I am cheap, a budget diva, I love getting things on Sale or for Free.

The red floral pattern table cloth is from Home Goods. The napkins are Martha Stewart brand in which I picked up at a Goodwill.  I even found my crystal serving platter at the back of the table at a Thrift Store.  The floral arrangement on the left of fake flowers I more than likely picked up at the Dollar Tree several years back.  The black Haunted House Lantern my Mother gifted me from Pottery Barn this year as she knows I love Halloween.  The brain, rib cage and heart candles are from Dollar Tree.  The Skeleton Lovers in the Frame is from Marshalls.  The Skeleton Lovers on a Bicycle are from Home Goods as well as the red glass serving dish.  The black plates are from Ollies Bargain Outlet.  I thought they were so unique I had to buy them, even though they are disposable plastic.  The Skeleton Wine Goblets, also plastic are from Dollar Tree as well as the Gold Charger Plates and fake floral accents. The black lace and gold spider web lace is from Dollar Tree as well and the King Skeleton with Snake accent.  The Mr. and Mrs. Skeleton mugs came from Home Goods and I believe the Gold Skeleton Heart Hand Coaster Holder came from Marshalls.

The lace pumpkin with Spider and Skull and and Spider Goblets are from the Dollar Tree as well as the snake candle holder.  I did add some crystal gem accents to the spider to make it pop a little more.

The silver snake mat under the Skeleton Lovers on the bicycle I cannot remember where I picked up.  I even looked online to see if I could find it, but no luck.  If not the Dollar Tree perhaps Home Goods.  The Skull Head Candle Holder is from Dollar Tree.  I learned how to do a heart napkin fold from a Pinterest tutorial.  It’s pretty easy and will even work for Valentine’s Day.  You have to try it!

I do have future plans to add a cute black lace curtain accent and maybe find some skeleton or heart accented silverware.  There’s always room for improvement.

I absolutely love my Halloween Romance Themed Table.  Especially since I usually do Creepy Cute themes.  This is all grown up and both gothic and romantic.  I do love a good skeleton or skull since my fashion sense ranges between Afro-punk and Bohemian.  I will definitely add on to this theme next year.

It was not my intention to add these characters to the mix, but my parents came down for my Uncle’s funeral, an Uncle I never had the privilege of meeting as my Mom didn’t know him well either, so I had to move the pillows and skeleton out of the guest room, and since we have a small living room, I had to move my  Werewolf off of the lazy boy.  I know this looks BIZARRE, but I did take a picture as it is laughable.  I was lucky enough to get the skeleton for $27 on sale at Walmart this year.  I’ll do a DIY Halloween Crafts On A Budget for the Werewolf who we have named Wolfie.  I have put him out every Halloween for the last 5 years I believe. He’s a Halloween favorite!  Stay Tuned!
