More Halloween Goodness

BEFORE

I made this centerpiece last year - it was inspired by a small, store-bought, beaded wreath. I added some extra beaded sprigs to the wreath to fill it in a little more, and then placed the whole thing on a hammered copper charger (a metal plate that's just for decoration). I add a new pumpkin every year, but it would work just as well with a faux pumpkin.

AFTER

Miss Candie gave me a pretty beaded bookmark last week when she came over for craft night, and we couldn't resist draping it over the pumpkin. Doesn't it just complete the look?

Embellish your table further with yummy pumpkin muffins - C made these last night and they are delicious!
