Ideas for Halloween Centerpieces

Making a homemade Halloween centerpiece allows individuals to show off their own creativity if a fun manner. Small Jack-o-Lanterns of various ghouls and goblins make for great centerpieces. Inside the Jack-o-Lantern place candles or candy. Spooky candelabra with faux spider cobwebs and small pumpkins placed in an interesting manner on the party table are a perfect homemade Halloween centerpiece as well. Paint pumpkins in various colors such as black and silver. Specimen jars filled with faux ears, eyes, and other body parts placed in jars will gross party guests out. Multi-tiered serving platter with Halloween cookies creates a tasty centerpiece. Add some fake spiders, bugs, and cobwebs to the tray but be sure guests do not eat those creepy crawlies. A Halloween bouquet can be made from eucalyptus, cotinus, chocolate cosmos, dahlias, callas, colius, berries, orchids, succulents, tillandsias, and scabiosa. Keep the flower bouquet arrangement dark rather than brightly colored – this is a spooky Halloween party not teatime at grandmas.

Other handmade Halloween centerpiece can include simple homemade crafts children can participate in making. Costumed candleholders can be made by cutting out spooky Halloween faces from construction paper. Use an exacto knife to cut out the features, place this sheet of paper on top of tissue paper, and secure with double-sided tape. Use black, red, and pumpkin colors. Decorate any Halloween items with simple glow-in-the-dark powder – because everything looks better all glowy and spooky. Use a fluorescent black to create the scary ambience.
