Who says Halloween is just for kids? We loved Halloween as children and still love it as adults. So why not throw a spooktacular Halloween bash appropriate for mature ghosts and ghouls? Here are some great ideas for a frightful Halloween Cocktail Party that are sure to please.
{clockwise, starting at top left:}
- Halloween Cocktail Party Table from Pottery Barn
- Cover a stack of old books and decorations with this Handblown Glass Cloche from Pottery Barn
- Serve up your favorite ghoulish drink in this Shot Glass Set from Pottery Barn
- Even condiments become spooky when served in this Skeleton Hand Condiment Set from Pottery Barn
- Cheese and crackers take on a new life with these Bone Shaped Cheese Spreaders from Pottery Barn
- Bone Martini Glasses from Pottery Barn, dressed up with spooky eyes!
- Create a dramatic display by filling vases with Spider Vase Filler from Pottery Barn
Happy Haunting Everyone!
I love all of these ideas. Everything looks great.
just have to have the drink dispenser and stand. was it from pottery barn or where? PLEASE TELL thanks
This set up is fabulous! I’m dying to know how you did the eyes on the martini glasses! Are they edible?
Can you give more details on the black martini glasses. What is the drink, how did you do the eyes. and are the glasses painted?
the eyes are painted onions on long tooth-picks layed across the glass.
next question: what do you use to paint those eyes with?
if you’ll look in the glasses to the right of the picture, you’ll see
the sliced blood oranges, black olives and pearl onions. there’s our
answer!
a black marker with edible ink found in the baked goods section at
michaels, hobby lobby, etc.
