Halloween Castle Kitchen

The Halloween Castle gets new things added to it every year as the stores stock their spooky season merchandise.

The smallest of the windows was curtained with a bat-patterned fabric and wide black lace.

Around it, lots of spooky toys.

Half the kitchen was papered with a simulated stone-wall wallpaper. I decided to go with a more brown color than the typical grey stones.

The counters were done with slate-looking tile in a greenish-brown color to make them look old and decrepit.

The counter edges were finished with a textured paint.

In the cabinet inserts, more Halloween fabric coated with sealer to make them easier to clean.

The communication center for our household.

Basically I covered a board with the same fabric I used for the cabinets and sewed a few pockets into it to hold notes, pens, etc...

A legal pad strung across it serves as our shopping list station.

Another shot of the cabinets, some with open shelves and curtaining.

The actual dining area has a simple iron and glass table and chair set.

 

Celeste and David are regular guests in the kitchen.

So I dressed them in Halloween costumes and set them in the dining nook.

Behind them, the larger windows with bat-covered fabric and a few large toy bats line the top of the wall and down the side.

I looked everywhere for the perfect light for this room, and finally found this one on Ebay. As a bonus, the seller was local to me so we could just pick it up!

The ceiling was since painted black in here.
