Jars of Candy Corn

Candy corn is the ultimate Halloween candy. Try filling jars with candy corns and top with flowers. Add some tea light candles and mini pumpkins for more festive flare.

Skull and Roses

For a dramatic look, use a fake skull and add deep red roses, black feathers, and even some moss for a gothic vibe.

Spiders

Creepy fake spiders add a fun touch to a centerpiece. Use fake spider webs as a table runner and top with plastic spiders.

Witch Hat

Nothing says Halloween like a witch hat. Use a witch hat with some beautiful flowers as a fun centerpiece. I love the orange and black flowers, but purple and green would also be beautiful.

Black Branches

Grab some black branches from the craft store to create a simple but stunning Halloween centerpiece. I like hanging mini bats, ghosts, or small Halloween ornaments.

Terrarium

Use a glass cloche or a large jar to create a haunted terrarium. Fill it with moss, rocks, branches, and little ghosts, pumpkins, or graveyard.

Balloons

Add some fun with simple ghost balloons. You can take white balloons and add eyes and a mouth. Tie them up into a centerpiece or let them simply float above the table. This is a great cheap but effective idea.

Skeleton Hands

Arrange skeleton hands and black candles for a creepy table centerpiece. You can make this as simple or creative as you like.

Potion Bottles

Cast a spell on your guests with potion bottles and leather bound spell books. Arrange bottles with colorful liquid as your centerpiece. I like incorporating some burlap, dried flowers, and pumpkins.

Cauldron

Place a black cauldron as your centerpiece. Fill it with LED candles or even dry ice for a party.

Floating Eyes

Bowl with red balls and floating ping pong ball eyes for a spooky halloween table.

If you want a more scary, creepy centerpiece, try some floating eyes. Fill a large glass bowl with water dyed with red food coloring. Add in some ping pong ball eyeballs.

Ghost Jars

Jars with a light in the jar and ghost faces painted on.

Ghostly glow jars are a simple way to add some Halloween spirit to your table. Paint glass jars lightly with white paint and ghost eyes. Add in a small LED candle to let the jars glow. I like adding some ribbon on top of the jar.

Pumpkin Patch

Mini pumpkins on a platter with fairy lights.

Small pumpkins are always a winner win it comes to table centerpieces. Make it creepy with plastic spiders and fairy lights or add in some friendly ghost statues.
