Trick or Treat Halloween Table

These are photos of my Aadams Family Reunion Table that I made at a class taught by Carl Bronsdon at the NAME convention.
The first day we assembled the table and made all of the paper party decorations. There are paper masks, cones filled with candy, party poppers, and the Halloween banner.
The second day we worked with fimo and created all of the goodies.
The table is filled with donuts, candy and carmel apples (complete with the worm), brownies, suckers, stick candy, candy corn, pumpkin topped cupcakes, popcorn balls, a fancy spiderweb topped cake, and a bowl full of candies.


I learned a wealth of imformation in this class. Carl is a very good teacher. The fimo candies and food were all suprisingly easy to create. It is just knowing the methods and taking it step-by-step.

We even made the candles! The most important thing that I learned is to just have fun with it and not drive myself crazy trying to make each item perfect. There are many items on the table that I didn't labor over, but it looks great as a whole.
Have a goodie and welcome to the party!
Donna

Wow! This is fantastic! Wish I could take the class. But, alas, just as when I was learning to quilt, I could not afford ($$ or time-wise) to take classes so had to buy books and teach myself. Same now with mini's--have to buy books or study online tutorials to learn it all! How fortunate you were able to take this. It is wonderful.

This table is fantastic! And great timing now for Halloween. I just linked to your post from the MyPunchbowl online invitations blog where I wrote about planning a Halloween menu.

I recently started a blog for Nursing Home Activity Directors to use for ideas.
I search the web for great ideas and found yours to be one of them. Thanks
