Halloween Candy Display: A DIY Ombre Skeleton Table Centerpiece

Using a Skeleton as a candy display has been so trendy for the past year. I was thrilled when I was asked to add my own spin to it!

What you will need to create your own Skeleton Candy Display:

  • Skeleton
  • MARTHA GLOSS WILD SALMON 8OZ
  • MARTHA GLOSS HYDRAGEAN PURPLE 8OZ
  • MARTHA GLOSS MACE 8OZ
  • MARTHA GLOSS LOVE BIRD 8OZ
  • Artificial Florals (optional)

I started by spraying the head using Wild Salmon.

I then sprayed the mid-section and arms in Hydragean Purple.

Third, I sprayed 2/3 thirds of the legs and hands in Mace.

Lastly, I sprayed the shins and feet in Love Bird.

Here’s the final result.

I allowed my Ombre Skeleton to dry completely before decorating it using artificial florals.

Don’t these colors look so beautiful together? I am obsessed! You can find these Martha Stewart spray paint bottles on Amazon!

For my Halloween tablescape, I incorporated natural plates and utensils to keep it clean and simple.

I decorated my skeleton with artificial flowers and incorporated spray painted pinecones, spiders and webs. To add height to my tablescape, I used tall candles in sage color.

If you are planning to use your ombre skeleton as a candy display, I would encourage your guests to only eat the candies that are not directly touching the skeleton.

My kids are not so crazy about gumballs and candy corn, so I filled up the mid-section with those and placed their favorite gummies on top.

There’s no right or wrong when building a skeleton candy display. Simply use your favorite colorful candies and have fun creating your Halloween table centerpiece! I promise it will be the talk of the party!
