A Vintage Witchy Party Table

 The Witchy Table Setting for A Halloween Party

Pre-printed tablecloth made from paper is from 1912.

       "In the center of the table is tripod with a paper caldron from which rises a cloud of "steam," made of new curled wool. Walnut shells containing humorous "fortunes" are tied with narrow orange ribbons that extend to each place setting where they are then fastened to small plastic insects. Toy or chocolate frogs are randomly distributed about the decorations. The pumpkin head, paper witches are made using paper mache bodies and cardboard shaped, pointed hats."
