Hollow out mini pumpkins and use as votive candle holders. They are inexpensive and look really great, you can even carve faces in them!
Serve fresh veggies using a hollowed out pumpkin as a bowl. Cut of the top and clean out, leaving the top in a jagged edge design! Use mini pumpkins to hold dips!
Old tree trunks or cut sections of thick limbs make great stands for your Jack O’ Lanterns.
Create creepy autumn centerpieces by filling vases with dried flowers, brown leaves, and empty branches. Tie a black ribbon bow around each centerpiece.
Use apples for taper candle holders. Choose small, round apples that will sit stable on a flat surface and remove the stems. Cut a small round hole in the top of each apple – deep and wide enough to securely hold a taper candle. Make sure the apples are shaped so that they have a flatish botton, so they won’t tip over.
An alternative to bobbing for apples is to hang them by their stems with thread from the ceiling and let party goers try to bite them! Try tying Donuts too!
