Let’s do it!
Halloween decorations for home: dress up your home on the night of October 31
The most terrifying night of the year is upon us and that means laughter, lots of fun and some other preparation. If you are looking for ideas to decorate or decorate your home that are easy and can be done with just a few materials, you have come to the right place!
Remember that what you are going to read below are ideas, but that you can always make some modification to your liking to give it your personal touch. Ideally, before starting with the decorations and crafts for Halloween, you should have prepared all the material that you will need. Try to recycle things that you already have at home and as soon as you use, you will see how beautiful everything looks on you!
Spiders hanging from the walls
You can prepare them with fabric or cardboard, the only thing you will need is a template that you can draw yourself. Once you have them ready, put a ribbon on the top and place them where you like best: on the ceiling, on the lamp, on the doorknob… Your house will have the touch of fear you were looking for!
Mummy candle holder
This is a very simple and entertaining Halloween craft to do. You are going to need some glass jars, adhesive tape and glue eyes. Line the jar with the paper and place the eyes. Then put a small lit candle inside the jar and dim the lights in the house. How scary!
Black or white balloons with expression of fear
Simple, successful and most original, it has it all! Inflate a few black balloons that are resistant and with a white marker draw the eyes, nose and teeth to give them a scary expression. You can also do just the opposite, choose white balloons and paint their eyes black as if they were a ghost. Now you only have to choose the place in the house where you are going to put them. In the center of the room, perhaps? At the entrance of the house? In the bathroom, perhaps? If you are lucky enough to have a fireplace, put them on the base, as if a few ghosts and scary characters came out of it on the night of October 31.
Some delicious ghosts
If you have children, you have invited family or friends to spend the afternoon at home or you simply cannot resist the idea of preparing, then we suggest that you make small transparent bags full of popcorn and paint them with a black marker. As if they were the most delicious ghosts you have ever seen, there is no one who can resist!
Coasters or napkins with scary messages!
Similarly, if this time it was your turn to prepare dinner on October 31, you can take the opportunity to put an orange napkin next to each plate on which has mysteriously been written in shaky letters. The phrase is already up to you, but quotes like “tonight is going to be scary”, “at 12 the witches go out for a walk” or “be careful with the menu you are going to try” never fail.
Black wreath for the door
It is about designing a crown with things that you have at home and no longer use. For example, paper cups, an old sheet, or even jeans that you haven’t worn in ages. In the latter case, you will have to cut the fabric and with a wire create a circle to which you will later add the rolled fabric strips until you achieve the effect of the crown. Place it or, if you prefer, decorate it with bats and cardboard ghosts.
Ideas to set and decorate the office for Halloween
And if what you are looking for is that on that date in your office you can breathe another atmosphere, scary but super pleasant and the most fun, pay attention to these proposals. You can do them at home the afternoon before and decorate your work table and common areas to the surprise of all your colleagues.
If you don’t see it as feasible to put many decorations in the office, what you can do is make some of these crafts and give them to your colleagues. It will be a detail that they will appreciate.
Spiders for Halloween with colored pompoms
Sounds good right? With a bit of wool in the shape of a pompom you can create various decorations to put on the table and next to the coffee maker. Although you can also put it in the drawer of that companion you are so fond of and give her a scare. Design one orange as if it was a pumpkin, black with eyes to simulate (you can put legs with Eva rubber) or white as if it were a ghost. You have many options to choose from!
Felt pumpkins and bats
They never fail, especially since they are so easy to create. Once you have bat pattern, cut it out of the felt fabric and decorate with goodly eyes and crooked teeth. What do you think if you put a magnet on it and stick it on the fridge? I’m sure everyone will love it!
A very special bowl for sweets
Are sweets not lacking in the office on the occasion of the? This time you can be the one to bring the bowl. Line one that you have at home with orange tissue paper and paint the eyes with a black marker and the teeth with a white one. Now all that remains is to fill it with sweets and chocolates.
Decorate the glasses for Halloween
And next to the bowl that you have just prepared, nothing less than some paper cups decorated with typical motifs of the night of, witch eyes, a boiler here and a spider there, you already have it!
Garland with bats or ghosts
The garlands are also for the office, don’t you think? Design one with cardboard bats, cats, ghosts or witches (just cut out the silhouette and add the appropriate details) and once you have glued them to the string or tape ask someone in the office to help you place it on the roof or at the front door.
Spiders with pipe cleaners
If you they will surely love the idea of helping mom make some fun spiders with pipe cleaners to take as a decoration to the office for Halloween. Make a ball out of paper and attach the legs with paper cleaners. Although you can also create them with wire covered with tissue paper or, even easier, with cardboard, cloth or cardboard.
