Happy Halloween!


Halloween Tablescape, originally uploaded by miss.mallory.

I'm early, I realize. However, I wanted to share with you this little 'tablescape' (why do I hate that word so much?) I created for 'Around the Table's' Halloween dinner last weekend. I thought I captured far better pictures than I did. Oh well. I still wanted to show off my little halloween creation, which may perhaps inspire you in the coming days when you begin to set up your own halloween soiree. I almost enjoy the art of creating a setting for the dinner, more than I enjoy cooking (gasp, blasphemy I know!) It's so fun, so exciting, and if done right should, in the end, propagate a gaggle of ooh's and ahs (much like the food). Plus, a proper lovely and inspired setting should make all your guests feel just that more special, cozy and at home.

How lucky was I to be a part of this martha-esque (how about mo-esque) spread? Talent lives in you my friend! xoxo

I'm late, I realise, in passing on my appreciative aaahs of wonderment at the wit and beauty of your tablesetting (tablescapes, eek, I'm with you, how ghastly). How very lucky your friends are to have been invited to share this ghoulishly marvellous feast for all the senses.

Oh my! Thank you so much for the lovely words ladies. And thanks for stopping by lickedspoon, it's so nice to hear from people who stop by. I don't get too many comments, but I sure do love them!!
