How To Make a Cute vs Spooky Halloween Party Dessert Table

by Balsa CircleOct 04, 2023

Cute or scary party decor? How about both! With fun party balloons and creepy. Customize your backdrop or wall with alphabet balloons! Add a personalized touch to your party with mylar foil letter balloons and spell out BOO (if using bigger 40" balloons) or HALLOWEEN (if using smaller 16"balloons). With fun balloon garlands and plenty of treats, this look is sure to be the spotlight of your party or Halloween decorations!

Get a few old or unused fall decorations and repurpose them for this look! With pink or mint pastel spray paint, you'll completely transform any old pumpkins! For this DIY we also took a foam skeleton and added a bit of glitter on top to make it fit this decor. So cute!

What You'll Need

For the "cute" side, you'll need -

Pastel matte balloons like blush, purple (or lavender), and turquoise (or mint). Tip! Make sure to under inflate the balloons to get a round shape. Just let some air out and you’re good to go!
Balloon tie tool and clear strip to make the garland. You can also use a balloon ribbon like in this video DIY.
Rose gold foil mylar balloons to spell B O O. Use a hand pump or helium (if using 40" balloons) to inflate the balloons.
3M hooks to hang the balloon garland.
Dessert cups for treats.
Candy and other treats!
Marble design plates.
Sequined tablecloth.
Clear cupcake stand.
Paper straws.
Clear cups.

What You'll Need

For the "spooky" side, you'll need -

Latex balloons like black and silver. Add white or gold for a cute color accent! Again, let some air out to get the round shape.
Balloon tie tool and clear strip to make the garland. You can also use a balloon ribbon like in this video DIY.
Silver candles. You can also spray paint white taper candles to be any color you want!
3M hooks to hang the balloon garland.
Black and silver decor accents.
