About this
A Tablescape Thursday post showcasing Marie's whimsical Halloween table set in her family room in black, orange and white. The table features round woven orange placemats, black dinner plates, Halloween dishware, light bulb-shaped drinking glasses and ghost votive holders. The post also notes where similar light bulb drinkware can be found and answers reader questions about the centerpiece.
Tips
- Similar light bulb drinkware to Marie's glasses can be found online.

- The handmade wooden centerpiece bowl was purchased at an annual inmate art show at the GA Correctional Center.
The plan

- Use the family-room table for a snack while watching a game on TV or as extra space for a large sit-down group
- Build the table around a black, orange and white Halloween color scheme
