Today I’m revealing my dining room for the first time here in our new home in South Carolina!  I’ve teamed up, once again, with my friends at Walmart to share it in a fun way during this holiday season. Check out this fun black and white Halloween table with affordable dinnerware that I brought home, and some great pieces, to create this look!

I’m so thrilled to be back in a home that has a formal dining room, separate from our other dining space….especially when we are entertaining and like to keep adults separate from the teens. It’s been great! Over on IG stories I’ll share what this room looked like when we moved in. 

Now, I have a lot of dinnerware and try to find sets that won’t break the bank. Everyone should be able to afford nice plates and bowls that you can use every day. I found these 2 fabulous sets at Walmart…a black set of dinner plates, salad plates, and bowls and then a black and white dotted set with a gold rim. I actually bought 2 sets of each to have 8 settings total of each variation.

I just love them! Aren’t they pretty?! And so great for every day use or to even dress up a bit. Ok so I had fun. I mixed and matched them to create a beautiful Halloween table but honestly…take out the pumpkins and you can use these all year round!

Ok so here’s how I created my table. First, create a runner down the middle with some decor. I used velvet pumpkins, some black branches and a couple spooky crows. No tablecloth this time but you can certain throw one on there.

I layered a black dinner plate with a dotted salad plate next.

Then I layered a black bowl with a dotted bowl.

These white dinner napkins are great to use over and over again and throw in the wash. How cute is this jeweled spider napkin ring?!!! It was a perfect touch for Halloween!

Great stemware like this with a gold rim is an essential for my tablescapes. 

I love gold flatware so I used more of a modern set for this table.

Isn’t it a great combo with both of these sets layered?!

Then I decided to change it up and switch out my plates, using the dotted on the bottom and I liked it even more. Fun right?! The napkin seemed to pop more.

I even found a black fascinator hair clip (cut off the netting) and put it on my velvet pumpkin for an added touch.

This was so easy and so fun, being able to mix and match this set.

I love this glam modern look and like I said…take out the Halloween decor and add some candlesticks or something else in the middle for an every day tablescape.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you know I always have a hot cocoa bar cart every fall and winter and apothecary jars make a cute and functional way to display everything.

 

I’m so pleased with the way my black and white Halloween table with affordable dinnerware from Walmart turned out! Walmart Home products have been my go-to for great home decor and kitchen items lately and I love going to see what new things they carry on their site. The last few months I’ve finished my master bedroom, my office, and our screened patio space with items from their website as well so make sure to check those out! What have been your favorite pieces you’ve found there lately?

I couldn’t be more excited to share this Halloween table with you today.  Last year’s Halloween table was so chic and had pink and I couldn’t have loved it more but this year it doesn’t have any pink and I’m still obsessed!  Here’s my elegant Halloween table with snakeskin print and velvet pumpkins.

I love setting a table and my fall and Halloween tables using Hot Skwash pumpkins are so fun to create! 

I love creating a runner down the table and playing around with the placement of the pumpkins and staggering them all until they look right. This time I added some black branches sticking out the ends and loved how that looked.

I started from the center, with my jumbo ivory Hot Skwash pumpkin, and then worked outwards. I found this cute black hair clip with feathers (and clipped off the dotted net part) and placed it on the pumpkin for a fun accessory.  It was so inexpensive and so darling.

We used other ivory, bone, bone with rhinestones, and black-gold pumpkins in various sizes (3″, 4″, 5″, 6″, and 8″). See them all HERE, Then, the special pumpkin….

That snakeskin sequin pumpkin with black feathers!!! Swoon!!! I’m sooo in love with it!  I love snakeskin print so much and always have and it’s back and especially hot this year and I’m thrilled. I have a lot of snakeskin print everything in my print so I was thrilled to have Daria make a couple of these for my Halloween table!

A few months ago I came across these darling and inexpensive black and gold chargers and knew they’d be perfect for my Halloween table!  I found the plates at HomeGoods eons ago and still love them. Check out these or these halloween plates too, as they’d be a really darling idea!

I also found these gold rhinestone spider napkin rings at the same time and bought them too. They were too gorgeous and so inexpensive.

Ok two things….First, this dress is under $50 and looks like something Audrey Hepburn would have worn.  I accidentally found it while looking for a dress for a friend.  So I bought it in 2 colors and I’m trying not to buy it in several other colors…ha!  It’s soooo classy and flattering.  Notice the snakeskin print shoes!  Perfect for this table, right?!

Second…you know when you feel like something’s missing from your tablescape and then it hits you and you know you have to go digging through boxes to find it and really don’t want to because you’re in a dress? Haha!  Well, that was me but I went and dug and found the Halloween box with my black crows anyway.

It’s a perfect fit, right?!  It’s exactly what this black branch needed!

This crow is somewhat of a partier.

EEK!  I’m sooooo excited for Halloween!!!  Are you?! I’ve already had guests sit down at this table and they DIED over this presentation! There’s still time to order everything and set a spooktacular Halloween table this year!

Halloween is almost here!  Are you ready? I took a short 10-day social media break toward the beginning of the month and now I’m in California, celebrating family events, so I had to quickly jump on here a share with all of you my Halloween table, kitchen and living room.  I shared my Halloween entry HERE if you missed it.  I’m going to post a ton of pics of each space below and then I’ll link the items (or similar) at the end of my post in the “Shop The Post” section.

Glam Halloween Tablescape With Blush & Leopard Velvet Pumpkins

These Hotskwash Pumpkins by Daria have been such a huge hit this fall.  And once again, for my Halloween tablescape, I have been able to add Daria’s gorgeous special edition grey and black leopard velvet pumpkins, mixed in with my blush pink velvet pumpkins, to create a glam and elegant place for my family and friends to sit and eat.

So glad I found this Halloween banner from years ago.  I made it and it was perfect for my hood!

And my favorite candle now comes in black, which is perfect for Halloween!

A pretty glass cloche is such a lovely way to display a yummy candle on a stack of beautiful dessert plates.

These darling kitchen dish towels were such a fun HomeGoods find!

Trying to not ignore the butler’s pantry and instead decorate every nook and cranny with intention.  Sometimes this little space gets ignored or becomes a hotspot for mail or homework. Loved these black and white Grace’s Tea Dishes (find similar HERE and HERE) I also found at HomeGoods with the mini 3″ and 6″ blush pink HotSkwash velvet pumpkins.

The cutest witch napkins and plates from HomeGoods are the perfect way to serve some fresh macarons to friends and match all my decor.

Classy Witch Boot from a local boutique years ago. More on DIY Halloween Masquerade Masks in THIS POST.

Every with needs a place to hang her hat at the end of the day!

Glam Halloween Living Room, Mantel, & Bar Cart

After we enjoyed these Hotskwash velvet pumpkins on my tablescape, I moved them to my mantel and added this darling witches broom I found at HomeGoods and a few brass accents.
