Free printable Halloween dinner table decor for both kids and adults

My kids are young so I wanted to make festive table decorations for our neighborhood Halloween potluck that weren’t too gory. I started by making a clever printable skeleton “doily” to put underneath bowls and plates.

Doilies are typically very sweet and delicate so I liked the idea of combining that throwback sweetness with a little spooky for my printable Halloween party decorations. I loved how the orange skeleton doily turned out so I added green and purple doilies…

And I couldn’t stop! It was like I was possessed by the skeletons and kept making more free printable Halloween party decorations for the Halloween dinner like these printable cup wrappers…

…some printable Halloween napkin rings that wrap around fabric napkins…

…and a festive printable Halloween skeleton hanging banner.

Personalize your Halloween food labels and place cards

Check out the printable Halloween place cards and printable Halloween table food markers (that YOU can personalize yourself using Adobe Reader 9, a free download). Just type into the fields to personalize the food labels for your Halloween dinner menu.

My free printable Halloween party decorations printed beautifully using my new HP Photosmart 7520 e-all-in-one Wireless Color Photo Printer with Scanner, Copier, and Fax. It’s wireless, fast, and the colors printed out really vibrant on the HP Brochure Paper which is cardstock that’s heavier than normal copy paper. I’m super happy with it so far, a very big thank you to HP!

One of my favorite features of the HP Photosmart 7520 e-all-in-one printer is the web-connected apps, which means you can browse things to print from Disney, Highlights, Better Homes and Gardens, and more straight from the printer itself. It’s cool. So far Elise has had me print a ton of coloring pages, and I plan to play around with it for myself too.

I’ll be posting more free fall printables using my HP printer and paper in addition to these free printable Halloween party decorations. Now, who says only kids get to trick-or-treat??

How to make DIY skeleton Halloween party decorations

Step 1: Download my free printable Halloween party decorations and cut out

Download my free printable Halloween party decorations. I designed them while half-watching X-Files re-runs to get in the mood (which is becoming an annual habit). Print them out; I used my new HP Photosmart 7520 e-all-in-one printer and HP Brochure Paper – be sure to enter the giveaway below to win a printer for yourself!

Step 2: String the free printable skeleton Halloween banner

Punch two small holes in each skeleton for the banner with a 1/8″ hole punch.

String black yarn through the free printable Halloween banner…

…and hang (heh, get it?).

Step 3: Make the personalized Halloween place cards

Personalize the free printable Halloween place cards by opening up my free Halloween place card template in Adobe Reader 9, a free download. Type into the fields to personalize the Halloween place cards with your own text, print onto HP Brochure Paper, and cut.

Next, fold the food labels in half. You can fold the back circle down a bit to keep it from rolling. Glue the skeleton onto the front with a bit of glue stick. Add creepy Halloween food and drinks. And be sure to check out more of my Halloween craft ideas and Halloween printables.
