HOOT~ O ~ WEEN!

Oh what a fun shoot I had with this one! 
 
I present you....
 
Hoot ~ O ~ Ween!
 
 
 
A fun Halloween shoot inspired on Krazy Colors and owls.  Since these was to be a Krazy take on something cute and fun, I decided to add spring elements to this fall occasion by using otherwise seasonably neglected loving friends like birds, and frogs and cute pink flowers!
 
 
 
Take a look at the polka dot spiders!
 
 
 
A different take on 'mud pie' with chocolate push ups and fondant toppers adorned with cute flowers and still edible worms...just not gummy worms!
 
 
 
Krazy Halloween Colors Cupcakes
 
 
 

A fruit cake inspired on Family Fun's healthier option for cake.
 
 
 
I changed the usual chocolate oreos owl cupcakes to vanilla ones to create white owls.  The peak is an apple caramel candy corn. They look great along these super cute and colorful owl cookies.
 
 
 

Love the mix of colors on the oreos!
 
 
 
White fondant spiders on...you guessed it, 'Ding Dongs'!
 
 
 
Apple Cinnamon Donuts on a lovely cup I received as a gift with Jack o Lantern Chocolates.
 
 
 
Lovely fun toppers for these pumpkin pies....
 
 
 
On the table I used fabric to create candy pouches with apple caramel candy corn inside. Painted these plates with dry erase markers to make spider webs and used a sticker owl on the glasses. For the utensil bag I used zig zag ribbon to have a little candy corn color effect and added these cute handcrafted mummy wooden spoons I won on a giveaway! And I found the cute candy corn color M&Ms indiviually wrapped. 
 
 
 
 
Polka dots fabulous!

Fall Flight {A Houndstooth Halloween} as seen on Amy Atlas

 
Fall Flight
{A Houndstooth Halloween Inspired Shoot}
 
 
A natural and fresh approach to Halloween.  Owls and Crows have their Fall Flight, the time where they make their presence on our celebrations.
While the style on this Fall table remains fresh with light colors and white pumpkins, it provides your guests with a warm full tablescape
sure to please the eyes and the taste buds.  A dessert table placed behind is a great alternative to treat your guests to a little something more  after dinner.
 

 
This table is decorated with a white tablecover as well as white and beige laced pattern plates, clear glasses, white straws and neutral color napkins.  The
halloween touches are added with owls and crows as well as a black and white houndstooth pattern.  The dessert serving pieces placed on the table
 remain white and light.  The sweets in the other hand bring in the contrast, sweetly and gracefully with chocolate.  Chocolate - Almond Cake Balls with
owl fondant toppers, chocolate pudding, and a sweet and salty Chocolate - Pretzel Cake. 
 




 
Mason Jars were painted with glossy white spray paint and feathers were added to the flower arrangements to add to the 'Flight' element of the table. 
Favors sacks with pumpkin seeds were created with houndstooth fabric and then an aged halloween tag was added which is also a great idea for place
cards.
