Create your own Candy Buffet

As we all know CANDY is truly the "reason for the season", this year why not try setting up a scrumptiously sweet candy buffet for your ghoulish guests to enjoy.

Here are 5 tips for creating a Sweet B Style Candy display:

1. Color Scheme - Try selecting a color scheme for your buffet, and select items that will match and compliment it. Orange and black are traditional, but how about pink and orange ,Orange and white, lime green black and white..... a ghostie buffet could be black and white, fall colors of brown, orange and red may also look stunning! 2. Fabric underlay - Use fabric yardage to create a colorful underlay for your display. Textured fabrics such as brocades, satins and sequence will sparkle under candlelight. Use fabrics that match or compliment your color scheme - bunch, drape, and layer for even more texture and interest.

3. Containers - Use containers of various heights and shapes to hold candy. Thrift stores are great resources for glass jars, vases, bowls and cake stands. Make sure each jar that you fill has a spoon or scoop for people to help themselves.

4. Organize - organize your candy by shape, color, size, or type. Don't create a "Hodge-podge", keep clean lines and make sure candy is accessible and easy to reach.

5. Height - One tall centerpiece or candy container will draw the eye and "make a statement". Mount painted branches in a vase, fill a tall jar with giant lollipops, or stack pumpkins high for best visual impact.

What a Wonderful Time We Had!

The National Halloween Convention was an overwhelming HUGE success for SpookyTimeJingles artistans!

We sold our art hand over fist!! We were told time and time again that we had thee best booth at the whole show! The owners were kind enough to offer me the position to oversee an entire aisle of collectibles in 2010 and said that SpookyTimeJingles can have as many booths as they want next year as well!

Our Black and Orange Halloween theme was very graphic and eye catching but without a doubt it was the one of kind treasures that stole the show!

Sensory overload for some and I think that is awesome!! So much to look at that peoples eyes would just glaze over! HA !!!!

We had wonderful fans come to visit and take home great one of kind treasures!

One of the highlights for me was when Claire Lavin the Vintage Halloween Author came to our booth and collected many wonderful pieces from STJ artisans! What an honor! Not only does she clearly have impeccable taste ;) but she was just such a wonderful sweetie and a total joy to meet!

The other highlight was to get to meet & sell our wares to Bill of Frazettas Fantasy Corner! They are a LONG time Halloween outfitter on the East Coast. I have known about Frazettas for many years and their reputation for Halloween greatness! Do not let their simple website fool you. Bills father started the business 25+ years ago and would fly to Hollywood to assist on horror films often. His son took over the business a number of years ago and continues the Frazetta frightening family tradition!

So it was a wonderful experience and I could go on and on about sooo many more wonderful things that happened for SpookyTimeJingles.com!
