Take a departure from the traditional orange and black color palette for Halloween and scare up a pink table that’s more fun than frightening! You’ll find an easy Halloween table centerpiece, ghostly sweet treats and additional Halloween table inspiration from 16 table stylists.

Happy Tuesday!
I’m cackling with glee to be part of a Halloween Tablescape Blog Hop!
🧹 🎃 👻🕸️💀🐈⬛🍬
Many thanks to Rita of Panoply for organizing this hop.
You’ll find additional Halloween table inspiration from 16 table stylists at the bottom of this post.

I like to keep the “Happy” in Halloween, nothing too scary or sinister,
so when I spied these ghost plates I was tickled pink! ;)

A ghost’s sole purpose is to haunt you on Halloween, but these apparitions have
discovered that it’s hard to be spooky when you’re pink! 👻

For an easy table centerpiece, I started with a black metal pumpkin
placed on a white cake pedestal.
A black feather boa, goblin and ghoul ribbon and mini LED string ghost lights
were added for some spooky fun.

Adding the feather boa around the edge of the cake pedestal is an easy trick
and way to conceal the battery pack for the mini ghosts lights.

Three ghosts have gathered in the pumpkin for a happy haunting and to celebrate Pinkoween!

A pink tablecloth with ghosts, jack-o’-lanterns and black stars
is more fun than frightening . . .

A second black feather boa runs down the length of the table. . .

With black and white bottle brush trees, flickering mercury glass votives
and beribboned ‘Casper’ pumpkins, to make a festive and easy table runner.

Ghost beaded napkin rings spookily materialized at HomeGoods, a favorite haunt. . .

And ghostly sweets were scared up from Dollar Tree, HomeGoods and Target. . .

Reese’s White Creme Peanut Butter Ghosts and La Suissa Italian Chocolate Ghosts
join other ghost treats in mugs filled with black paper shred.

No-so-spooky and oh so sweet! 👻

It’s not Halloween without some Peeps!

Marshmallow Ghost Peeps specifically . . .

Perfect for Ghostly Brownie S’mores for Halloween. . .
Easy to scare up with your favorite box of brownie mix!
Toasting Ghost Peeps by the firepit while you warm up your bones
is an annual tradition for the skeleton crew . . .

And don’t forget to float a marshmallow ghost in Scary Sips Orange Hot Chocolate. . .

Watch the ghost vanish before your very eyes! 👻

What a fun, happy table! The napkins and tablecloth are adorable, and what a great find of pink ghost plates! Any lil goblin would enjoy being a guest here!
Very innovative and I’m loving it! Back in the day, our kitchen and bathroom were in black & pink plastic tiles and gray & pink plastic tiles. I think at that time, that may have been the only two colors available! Lasted forever! That’s what you pink & black reminded me of!!! I’ve been out of the loop for a while. Therefore, I’m wondering how you fared in the wake of HELENE? Hope you are well!!
Mary, this is so cute! Love the pink and black mix! Once again I have to save a bunch to Pinterest! The centerpiece is sweet as can be and looks easy enough for even me!
This looks perfect for a little girl Halloween party I’m planning for my nieces.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos and sources.
So cute! A ballerina color combo, fashioned spooktacularly! It’s the details you find and assemble that make my jaw drop, Mary. Not only the coordinated tablecloth and plates, but those napkin rings, ribbon and lights. Oh, and the fun candies! Let’s talk about those ghostly s’mores, and how about that orange chocolate Harry & David drink mix?! That looks really yummy. Love the ghost peep disappearance! I think any kid (or adult!) would love that! Thank you for creating another fabulous treat of a tablescape, and being part of the party fun!
Mary, I think we have Barbie to thank for all this pink mania! I absolutely love the Rosy Check pumpkins I added to my patch this year. Your pink ghosts are adorable! I know a few little girls who would be thrilled to join your pink ghosties at the table. I for one, would love one of those ghostly s’mores. What a very clever idea. I join girlfriends for a Halloween party each October, so I do think these should be my contribution. Thanks for the idea! Oh, and I must make the orange hot chocolate! You are so clever!!! Thanks for the big smiles this morning! Always fun to see what you have to share. Happy Halloween!
Mary, I love pink for Halloween! It does remove the scary and brings a girly and playful approach 🩷 The centerpiece is darling and creative! The pink ghost tablecloth makes the perfect foundation for Pinkoween! The black and white bottlebrush trees and beribboned ‘Casper’ pumpkins are a charming table runner. I love the pink ghost plates, so cute! The treats look enticing…the one thing I do enjoy about Halloween are the treats! As the Queen of Halloween, you have created more magic with this table 🎃🩷🖤🎃
It is a treat always to join you at table!🩷🤍🖤
The pink ghosts and tablecloth are just adorable! I really love your fun table. Your centerpiece is so cute with the charming ghost lights.
Halloween is pretty in pink Mary! Love the sweet pink ghost plates, they are so happy! I also love all the black and white, the ghost ribbon is adorable and I love the black boa running down the center with the black and white bottle brush trees and white pumpkins. Of course the pink ghost tablecloth is perfect and the ghost napkin rings are fabulous! The way you did the centerpiece with the ghost plates in the pumpkin is so clever. The ghost mini lights are so cute, and I wish I had a Reese’s white ghost candy and a Scary Sips Orange Hot Chocolate! So many cute details, just adorable!
Jenna
Good Afternoon Mary,
What a great find on those pink ghosts! I love the pink and black Halloween Colors. Every single detail is spooktacular! Even the Orange Hot Chocolate with the ghost disappearing is too cute!
Thanks for all the inspiration!
👻🩷👻🩷👻
You are so clever!
Mary, I adore decorating with non-traditional colors, so I am smitten with your pink plates–too cute! Your attention to detail is always an inspiration. Pinned! Have a lovely October, Cecilia @ My Thrift Store Addiction
Oh my, look at this sweetness!!!!!!!! A pink Halloween tablescape! Does it get any cuter, seriously????? Can’t wait to show Vivi. She will looooooooove this. Pink is her fav color and boy is this a cute “party!” You always inspire, Mary.
I absolutley love this post…it’s bringing tears to my eyes: “We always wear pink in October,” and your little ghosties are doing just that. The ghost details are so much fun, too. I always enjoy your posts because they always bring me joy! Happy Halloween!
Mary, I am loving all of the pink you have been using in your fall decor. This pink ghost themed table is absolutely precious! That tablecloth and those sweet plates are adorable. Those s’more brownies look scrumptious, too. It would be so much fun to dine at this Halloween table. Happy October!
Pink, black and white make a wonderfully frothy Halloween table. The pink ghosts are such fun. Ghosts trapped in black cages with feather boas close by add to the adorable aspect of the tablescape. I’m anxious to try some of the recipes for my own Halloween table. All the little touches add up to a fun and welcoming Halloween table that children and adults will love. the alternating black and white plate stack looks wonderful with all the pink. Have a lovely Halloween.

So Fun!! I was so tempted with all the pink I was seeing in the stores!! So glad you did it and you did it so wonderfully delightful!! I love the pumpkin centerpiece with your pink ghost plates and even mini ghost lights. You are a champion shopper to find just the perfect ghost treats as well- and I mean that in the best way!! I think we need a girls trip to Mary’s table!! Enjoy your Halloween!!💗🖤
I love your pink Halloween, so cute. The pink ghost plates with the tablecloth and napkins are so darling. The orange chocolate looks devilish. A fun table with so many sweet ghosts and of course the goodies. The black boa ties in beautifully. Definitely, this table brings a smile to my face. Always a pleasure to visit and see your creative imagination.
Mary, Pink for Halloween???? How sweet! 🩷 The centerpiece is so creative! The pink ghost tablecloth makes the perfect foundation! The black and white bottlebrush trees and beribboned ‘Casper’ pumpkins are a charming table runner. The little pink ghost plates are so cute! You are so talented and I look forward every year to see what new inspiration you give us at Halloween! 🎃🩷🖤🎃🩷🤍🖤
Mary, it might be hard to be spooky when you’re pink, but its easy to be fun, fresh, and pretty! The pink ghost plates are adorable and I love the pink, white, and black theme. The tablecloth is so cute with it’s little pops from the orange pumpkins and the boa down the center with trees and pumpkins is so clever. I love all the little details like the ghost lights and napkin rings, and the disappearing marshmallow ghost is a hoot. Thanks for all your wonderful creativity and wishing you a fantastic Halloween!
Mary this is just the best thing ever! I am in love with your pink and black. The pink ghost plates mixed with the fun pink and black tablecloth. So many cute details and then the skeleton roasting ghost peeps over the fire is so funny and cute! I need to steal your fun ideas!
Oh my goodness, this table is so cute!! I wish I could sit there and enjoy a s’more ghostly brownie and some disappearing ghostly drink! What fun, Mary! 💕 👻 💕
Wow Mary! Your table is fantastic! I love everything about it. Your centrepiece is so creative and fun! Love the tablecloth and napkins. Oh, and those little pink ghosts on each plate. So cute! The napkins rings are gorgeous! What a great find. I don’t know that I have seen ghost peeps here in Canada, but I will sure on the look out now! Happy Halloween 🎃
Mary, you’ve found a table full of friendly ghosts that are sure to bring squeels of delight to all the visiting trick-or-treaters! I wouldn’t have guessed that there’s a world of pink ghosts out there, but they certainly make me smile. The black pumpkin, plates, flatware and other items both accent and emphasize the fun. Have a wonderful Halloween!
I’m just now getting to read this post since this is my busy time of year. I love this table Mary! The pink ghosts are fun! I like how the marshmallows disappear in the cup. I adore the napkin rings. The pink ghosts are a nod to breast cancer month too it seems. It’s nice to have a combo of Halloween and breast cancer recognition. Enjoy your day. Clara❤️
New here…found your tablescape blog hop and have so enjoyed hopping about checking out all of the lovely table settings. Love your use of an unexpected color for Halloween, PINK!! So sweet. And those ghosties, as my grands call them, are the cutest. Not creepy at all. Pinning.
Oh my gosh that’s all daring Mary!! I love those little pink ghosts! And as usual, you’ve added so many wonderful touches that make it a little adventure everywhere you look! I’m sorry I couldn’t join the hop this time, but I love to see what you’ve all done, and this is a fabulous place to start! Thanks once again for all your creative inspiration!
