Let's hang up this ghost I made out of chicken wire. Welcome back to the final part of decorating for my Halloween dinner party, and I only have a few hours before my guests arrive. This morning, I bought a 100 roses to cover my entire staircase. I wanted my entrance to look like it was enchanted and overtaken by branches and roses. So after zip tying the branches to my railing, I added in the roses and flex the petals to give them a dramatic look. They really good like they were growing out of the railing. To hang up the chicken wire ghost, you guys recommended using a disco ball motor to make it spin, and then I could hang it up for my chandelier. To make the ghost look like it's floating, I yes fishing line to connect it to the disco motor. And after seeing her dance, I could not believe we made this happen. Since I'm using my living room as the dining room, I had to get rid of all of my furniture. Any guesses where I put it? After everything was cleared out, I moved in my dining table and then started working on the black veil backdrop. My vision here is to light up the trees in red light and then add this draped fabric arch to frame out the view. It was looking so pretty as the sun was setting. To tie in the surrealist theme, I added this swan prop at the center of the table, and then made these flower candle holders with calla lilies, as well as these ballerina inspired candle holders. They were so perfect for the theme. Before my best arrived, I set up the red light on the trees and the fog machine in my foyer. Auggie and I got into our costumes, and it was time for the night to begin.
