Planning The Halloween Party Table

        Here we have found four vintage ways to decorate the table for a Halloween feast from 1912; plus menu suggestions. How much fun a doll can have planning and crafting for all of her friends! Gather plenty of crepe paper, construction paper, glue and your own choice of markers and crayons. The candle sticks can easily be made using wooden golf tees. Don't forget to cut a small plate for every doll that attends and include also a place card for each guest's name...

The Pumpkin Blossom Table Decorated


        "To the attractiveness of the paper Halloween tablecloth, and the jack-o'-lantern paper plates, shown above, is added a running pumpkin vine, and out of tissue pumpkin blossoms the candles rise. 
       The favors are jaunty little figures with pumpkin faces and tendril arms, dressed in pumpkin blossoms and carrying tiny baskets filled with salted almonds."
