Succulent Skeleton Centerpiece

October 2, 2018  Fall | Halloween

I know my succulent skeleton centerpiece will be the hit of my Halloween dinner party. Meet Mr. Bonypart. I took him to the next level by decking him out in succulents and now he’s ready to impress my guests.

Update: Check out my whole Halloween Home Tour filled with tons of creative decorating ideas here.

My girls are freshman in college but not having kids in the house didn’t stop me from having fun with Halloween decorations. I can’t wait to invite my friends over for some ribs and a nice Chianti!

P.S. I took these pics before I recovered the dining room chairs – you can see them in all of their fabulous glory HERE.

Mr. Bonypart is a life size, posable skeleton! I love that I can put him in all sorts of compromising positions. He takes center stage so the table doesn’t need much else. A simple table setting in black and white with vintage gold glasses and my favorite gold flatware add sparkle.

I love these black and white terrazzo plates and at under $2 each, they don’t break the bank. They are melamine but don’t look like it.

Faux succulents add a whimsical touch.

He’s been waiting a long time for a cocktail.

Join me as I decorate my 100 year old home, scour thrift stores, create pretty things, putter in my peony and hydrangea filled garden, and mix up a mean cocktail all with a touch of sarcasm and a side of bacon - Cheers!
