About Mrs. Bee

This past Tuesday, a couple of bloggers and peeps in the wedding industry were invited for a studio tour of the Martha Stewart Show.  I’ve been lucky to attend a number of tapings, but this was the first time I actually got to look at the set up close and personal!

Martha is a pro when it comes to styling, and her studio is no exception. Everything was decked out in Halloween decor, with no detail overlooked. I thought it might provide you with some styling inspiration, particularly if you’re having a fall event. Read on for pictures galore!

Everything on Martha’s set actually works. This is the view from behind the counter looking out into the audience. The guest of the day was Josh Charles of The Good Wife, who helped Martha cook beef fajitas.

Dahlias are such dramatic flowers.

Gourds come in so many different colors, sizes, and textures. They make for interesting centerpieces and vessels.

This would be an easy and pretty way to display photos at a wedding. Check out the silly googly eyes in the third picture.

These scary frames were made by attaching skeletons with gauze to regular picture frames.

How fun would a Halloween themed shower, bachelorette party, or even wedding be?  You’re never too old for Halloween! :)

Oh, I am so jealous… You did a great job documenting your trip! I’ll definitely be borrowing some of Martha’s decorating ideas for my annual costume party (but then, this is nothing new!!)..
