Creative Halloween: 10 Spooky DIY Decorations

Monstrously fun (and 100% DIY)

It doesn't take much to transform your home into a fun and spooky lair. Here are 10 quick and easy ideas for decorating your Halloween without spending a fortune on disposable items.

👻 1. Little ghosts with handkerchiefs
Paper balls wrapped in white handkerchiefs, with drawn eyes. Hung on a string or scattered around the house, they're simple and super cute!

🕯️ 2. Bloody candles
Just melt a little red wax on white candles: the “blood drop” effect is guaranteed and immediately creates a horror atmosphere.

🕸️ 3. Cobwebs with wool
Drape white or gray yarn over a picture frame, mirror, or between two chairs. You can even add fake spiders to complete the look!

🐍 4. Creepy jars
Take glass jars and fill them with colored water, googly eyes, toy insects, or dried herbs. Label them "potions" or "witch's ingredients."

🎨 5. Wall silhouettes
Cut out bats, black cats, pumpkins, or witches from black cardstock and glue them to walls, windows, or scatter them across the table.

🕷️ 6. Spiders with bottle caps
Use plastic or cork bottle caps as the body, add little legs with pipe cleaners or cardboard, and draw scary eyes. They're also great as place cards!

🎃 7. Paper or cardboard pumpkins
If you don't have real pumpkins, no problem! Cut out shapes from orange construction paper and decorate them with funny or scary faces to hang or string in a garland.

🪦 8. Cardboard tombstones
With a gray cardboard box, you can create fake gravestones to place in the entryway or living room. Write fictional names or humorous horror-themed messages on them.

🧟 9. Zombie hands with latex gloves
Fill latex gloves with flour or rice, and draw veins and nails: they look like hands sticking out of the ground! Perfect for displaying on a shelf or among treats.

🧛 10. Vampire mouths with clothespins
Paint some clothespins red and add teeth with white paper: they turn into vampire mouths that you can pin anywhere.
