Over Orange?




Why not forego the usual Halloween color scheme this year in favor of something a tad more subtle, though no less spooky. Here are some ideas from around the web for an eerily elegant party in white and black:









Who says pumpkins need carving? White paint and black ink make for a sophisticated and sinister centerpiece from designer Elizabeth Demos' profile this week on Design*Sponge.

As always, Etsy is chock full of ideas for DIY entertaining, including these printable labels to add a creepy touch to your cocktail menu.

If the full moon doesn't provide enough illumination, over at Create My Event, old coffee cans are painted black and punched full of holes to make candle holders. For a final spine-tingling touch from craft blog Tatertots and Jello, scatter these beaded spiders across your table and watch your guests squeal - with delight, of course!

To finish with something something sweet, check out the amazing recipe blog smitten kitchen for these gorgeous pumpkin cupcakes with maple cream cheese frosting.

Happy Halloween, everyone!
