Halloween Tablescape

Our Home

2 Oct

This post is sponsored by The Christmas Tree Shops andThat! Thanks for supporting the brands I truly love and that make this little blog of mine possible!


Guys, I never decorate for Halloween! I might throw a skeleton head out or a witches sign, but I usually go all out for Fall decor so I don’t bother much with Halloween. Things are different this year, can you see?! I wanted to decorate just a small part of the house and see if I liked it. Oh man, I LOVE it. I can’t wait to decorate for this holiday for years to come. It was so fun and really brought out my creative side, which I sometimes feel like I’ve lost in this season of motherhood.

We had lots of fun shopping for our tablescape at The Christmas Tree Shops! It was crazy to me that Layla was there shopping with us, because I used to shop there all the time with my mom and grandmother. She loved looking at the things that lit up or had bright colors. I knew I wanted a pretty skull theme with purple, white, and black. The store had tons of affordable options to choose from, and I hope you guys love the tablescape just as much as we do!

I love the spooky, yet beautiful vibe it gives off. I am ready to decorate the whole house for Halloween! We light the candles and carry Layla over to the table to examine everything. She stares at it and smiles. We don’t really eat much at our dining room table yet since we use the kitchen island, but I still like to make it pretty now and then.

Do you guys decorate for Halloween inside or outside of your home? We can’t wait to pull out all of the Christmas decor. Well, I can wait, but I can’t wait for Layla to see all of the bright lights when we pull it out. 😉

xoxo,

This is such an easy way to make sourdough pasta! This is such an easy way to make sourdough pasta! No fancy pasta attachment required. 

INGREDIENTS: 
-3 cups of flour (I used freshly milled white wheat)
-1 cup starter (discard is fine) 
-4 eggs 

DIRECTIONS:
1. Place everything in mixer and until dough smooths out. Or create a well with flour, add eggs and starter and mix on the counter. 
2. Let dough ferment for at least 30 min. 
3. Divide into 8ish sections, dust counter with lots of flour, then roll as thin as possible. 
4. Use a pizza cutter to cut pieces as desired. Make sure to be using lots of flour so nothing sticks! 
5. Lay on a cooling rack or hang to dry for at least 30 min. 
6. Boil water, add salt and once boiling cooking for 6-7 minutes. 

We enjoyed this pasta in a tomato pesto chicken alfredo, it was so good!
