Ravens are calling all Witches~
There’s a Special Potion Brewing for You. . .
I fell under the spell of this Witch’s Hat at HomeGoods . . .
I suspect it’s all this Black Cat’s fault~
Before I knew it~ I was scaring up spiders, ravens, & some munchkin pumpkins for a centerpiece & waving my wand in the kitchen to whip up some cupcakes for some Halloween fun~
I cast about Tuesday Morning a couple of weeks ago~ and with a bit of magick spied these plastic spoons~ perfect for spelling some chocolate from candy melts~ microwavable with no cauldron required. . .
Bat Fangs add a sweet Bite to your Witches’ Blend~~ Extra Sharp & 100% Organic. . .
Labels were easily conjured courtesy of Martha Stewart and the aisles of Michaels~
This Witches’ Blend is known to have a bone chilling effect. . .
Choose your Halloween sprinkles wisely. . . custom blending your stirring spoon for the right Spell for your Potion!
Chocolate Stirring Spoons were inspired by spoons found via Pinterest here.
Add some Eye of Newt. . .
Stir in some Brains of Cawing Ravens~ if you dare. . .
My assorted tea cups and tea pots last used here, never thought they would be party to such wicked elixir~
Scrapbooking letters & paper~ framed by a wreath~ designate your parking area. . .
Don’t forget to anoint your temples and Third Eye with a small amount of the flying ointment to prevent a bumpy ride. . .
On the night of the Full Moon pluck two feathers from a Raven’s wing~ place under your hat for good measure~
Potions should be mixed & served with Extreme Caution. . .
Always stir in a clockwise direction just until it starts to bubble~ then immediately stir counter-clockwise~~
These witchy hands had me in their evil clutches from the moment I spied them at Target. Fortunately, like me they are happier with a cupcake in their hand. . .
Cupcakes topped with a Witch Hat~ inspiration provided by Southern Living here.
Witch Hats~ frightfully easy with Oreo Fudge Cream Cookies and Hersey’s Kisses~ a bit of orange icing seals their fate and the peanut butter & fudge is a deadly combination, for me anyway.
Happy Flying!

I want to come to THIS party! You need some sister witches sipping, nibbling & being ‘witchy! Love this…A
Love your theme for this table. Those hats on the cupcakes are bewitching!
My hat is off to you!
So many cute ideas!Thank you~
My broom flew off track leaving Lubbock yesterday.. the 8,000 foot tall dust cloud put flying on hold.. or I would have arrived. Certainly would have parked it in the witch’s lot! Love the hat.. what a cutie. Your treats are so darling too. It’s just a great table.. congrats! xo marlis
Wow….there are about a billion and one different little details here!!! This is great! The Ralph Lauren “Sophia” plates are just beautiful, and they really add a “grown-up” look to the table. All of the fabulous Halloween items…I just can’t get over it! The little chocolate witch hats on the cupcakes are cute, cute, cute! Love the hands holding the cupcakes, too. The expression on the cat’s face is creepy…wouldn’t want to wake up and see him next to my bed! The photography is really great…vivid color that makes everything look that much prettier/scarier!
Oh, I love this fun table. It’s such a nice blend of quality/proper settings (dishes, tea cups) mixed in with fun, childish stuff. And I love the sprinkles on the chocolate-covered spoons–what a clever idea that can be adapted to so many settings!! Thanks for sharing that! Funny thing: I had to go back and look at the “Witch’s Blend” label…I thought the “W” was a “B”…LOL Can you see how I would’ve been confused? :)
Yes it was GLARINGLY obvious AFTER I edited my photos~ I’ll have to talk to Martha about changing her halloween beverage font :)
This is definitely my favorite Halloween tablescape! LOVE all the imaginative touches, and the treats look yummy (of course, I never met a cupcake I didn’t like!). I like that you used such dainty cups and saucers to lure the victim in, and the green napkins complement the orange and purple so well! I’m completely bewitched! :)
Mary, you are making me long for more time to play with my Halloween things. This table is full of clever ideas and wonderful inspiration. If only I had the time! Love the chocolate spoons, witches hat centerpiece, and the broom parking sign. I’ll be smiling all day just thinking about this post. ~ Sarah
Let Elle & I park our broom in your adorable parking spot as we’d love to join you & the fur girls for tea! Those spoons are adorable. I have seen them for other holidays too & always love the idea. AND the witch hat candies… 2CUTE! I also love your planter all done up with the Halloween colors. Adorable tablescape as always. Thanks for having us. Cheers!
HUGS!

Too clever…..This is another I have to share with my Halloween crazy niece in Greensboro…….
I would need an extra ‘props’ room in my little house just to store all the neat accessories you come up with for your tablescapes, Mary!
Oh my word, this is just the cutest thing. I love it all. The witches hat is so cute and all the pumpkins, potions and accessories are just unreal. Thanks tons for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
My HAT is off to you, Mary!!!!! Week after week you never cease to amaze and delight me! YOu tables are so inspired! Your talent is limitless!!!!! I am under the SPELL of this table. We are having dinner group on Friday and I am doing a Halloween table too. This is fabulous…..have I used enough adjectives yet??? LOL!!! XO, Pinky

Hi Mary! I can’t even imagine how much preparation went into this, it is amazing!! All the little details that you do so well really make this outstanding. The Sophia dishes are beautiful!

Anyway, great great great!!!

Mary, Mary, Mary…what a fun table, I love every bit of it! Great idea, those stirring spoons, too cute. The hat cupcakes are adorable.
You have OUTDONE yourself! I just kept scrolling and scrolling and scrolling and never running out of delights. I’m so glad you linked that pinterest thing for the spoons. I’m just getting started saving recipes on pinterest. I would love those directions.
Usually, your tables are so romantic looking and elegant to me. These Halloween tables show such a whimsical side of you. I have really enjoyed them! (But now… love the romantic and elegant ones too…)
Mary ~ How you “best” each of your previous posts, I’ll never know. I love this one, you are so creative and clever ~ eye candy to the max!!
Thank you so much for sharing your brilliant creativity . . . now I’m going back to take it all in again. ;) You’re a GEM! xoxo
Grabbing my broom and I will be right over!!! This setting is just the best. You have really captured the fun of Halloween here..I love it!
Cute but took a quick look, I hate spiders! Sorry….love you anyway!
Blessings My Friend,
What a fun table! I love everything you touch! Those spoons are wonderful. I hope I have some time to whip some magical spoons up in my kitchen this year. All of your wicked treats are perfect and I love the fun labels. This table has it all.
Holidays just aren’t holidays until I come over here and see what you have done! You have DONE it again!! I would like to volunteer to be one of your sister witches….and I have a couple of fluffy white canines that would like to join me! How fun would THAT be?? I just love your holidays!!!

This tablescape is so much fun and so festive. That little cupcake looks perfect. :) Have a great weekend.
Wow! What an amazing table! Everything looks so festive.
Your tablescape is gorgeous!!! You’ve got a lot of talent! I’d love it if you would share it on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.

What a great Halloween party! I’ll have a little eye of newt please!
Such a very fun table, and your teacups are beautiful! I made chocolate stirring spoons one Christmas with a friend! Great for coffee or hot chocolate!
This Witch is casting all spells aside and on her way. My broom is set for warp speed to get there before all the potion is consumed. LOL This looks like THE BEST party of the season. Yummy little eye of newt, ravan’s brains and tea in beautiful little magic cups.
So entrancing. See you in a flash. :)
I love that your witches like to use your lovely delicate china cups and saucers…a wonderful, charming design. Thank you for inviting us to the party. Cherry Kay
Fabulous tablescape!
Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
How did I miss this post??? Love the cupcake holders, I’m sure the kids will get a big kick out of them-have fun Mary:@)
Bravo~Bravo!! I’m giving you a STANDING ovation for this wonderfully creative table, Mary! Every inch, every item, every pun is so delightfully done. I’m in awe, truly.
I’ve missed being able to get online to visit & comment on all your beautiful tables recently, but rest assured I saw them in my email on that tiny, crappy little laptop screen that I had to use while my desktop was being repaired.
Nice to be back & able to *see* what you’re up to!
Hugs,
Rett
It’s all just so bewitching, how creative you are, not to mention inspiring!

I forgot to say how much I love the beautiful teapcups interspersed in the table. It’s an unexpected surprise that I really enjoyed!!!!
Hi Mary!

Very cool, except I’m not keen on the eyeballs. :)
What a colourful table, full of interesting detail. I love the idea of the broomstick parking space!
Pure witchcraft.
Beautiful and fanciful table scape! Just very festive..
Love your parties! It’s a party I’d love to attend. You are so creative, I just love the tablescapes and food ideas. Thanks too, for posting where where you get your beautiful things.
OOoooOoo, save me a place!
I love the witch’s brew! This is perfect for the season!
Your house is Halloween ready! I love the witch’s brew! Your pretty floral tea cup is sweet in the midst of all the Halloween. Take care
Now that’s a wickedly delicious post! I love the witchy hands.
Always enjoy visiting your table! Your creativity just blows me away. Excellent job!
Your every detail is amazing! I really love the chocolate spoons!
Oh my heavens! ..and oh my gracious what a superb delight! THIS IS what my idea and memory of Halloween and autumn is all about! The coolest of decorations, what a table…my daughter would so love even more than me to have those cupcake or little pumpkin holders! Too wonderful! …and what a great idea (and chocolate yummy) witch’s hat! So cool, I just can’t find enough words to tell you how much I enjoyed that look into coolness! Thank you!!!!
What a beautiful Halloween decoration ! When I see this I regret that in Belgium it’s not very much celebrated. It just started to move in a few years ago, but only kids celebrate, but they don’t go for trick and treat. Maybe this will all come over in the next years !
Boy, you sure know how to make Halloween look appealing! Just great!!
=)
well done…from an avowed and certified Halloween slacker!!
I love it! The hands holding the cupcakes are great! I love that you added china tea cups and saucers to the mix!
Oh, I am so in love with this table! I just love the chocolate stirring spoons and that amazing cupcake! Mmm… Such a fun table for Halloween :)
Gosh — I wish I could set a table like that. BEAUTIFUL and spooky, too. :)
WOW what a great party and ohh Im off to make some spoons with chocolate in them now. Thansk for sharing, Love Hazelxox

Yum! Your party left me hungry. I love the hat, the chocolate spoons, the chocolate eyeballs and the tea set. Everything is adorable. Thanks so much for the invite. Happy All Hallow’s Eve! :D
Spoons! I love the spoons! And as for pinterest I think it’s safe to say I am hopelessly addicted. Thank you for sharing your lovely water-side spot and hosting such a lovely tea. Many blessings ~EMD
Ooooh! What a spooktacular tea party you’ve planned! Your table setting is absolutely perfect for a witches tea, you haven’t missed a single wonderful detail. And your photos are gorgeous!

Thanks for sharing it.

Oh Mary I have not seen this post and I thought I had gone through your whole blog. I hadn’t started blogging or was really into blogging yet this time last year. Love all your creative ideas. So many I want to use this year!!! N.
PS I look at my little blog after seeing yours and I’m embarrassed how amatuerish mine is. Hopefully over time it can measure up to the high standards that I see in yours. Of coursse I’ll have to get a fabulous camera, place on a lake, a green thumb and your sense of style to name just a few…… lol…. but I think it would be worth it all. You are one of my mentors dear. Thankyou!
