Halloween Decorations
Posted by: Crafter
If you are a creative type, or just want to by, look into arts and crafts Halloween decorations that you can make to get you started into the wonderful world of crafts! Arts and crafts Halloween decorations are not only fun to make, but they really can give your home a festive look on this fun holiday. You do not have to be a master artisan to make arts and crafts Halloween decorations. All you need is some imagination, creativity, and some supplies and you are ready to go! Try a few of these simple ideas:
One of our favorite and easiest arts and crafts Halloween decorations to make is creepy candles. Get some candles in dark colors or in the classic colors of Halloween – orange and black. Gather some trinkets together like sequins, beads, and even candy corn. The selection is limitless. In our local dollar store, they even have table sprinkles in the shapes of bats, ghosts, pumpkins, and witches. Now, if you use small objects like these, you should probably use tweezers. I’ve even seen people glue on the fake cobwebs which makes for a really neat look! Using simple white school glue, glue these trinkets all around the candle until you like the way it looks. Place them all around the house and enjoy the way they look!
Arts and crafts Halloween decorations can be great projects for friends and family to do together. Enjoy each other’s creativity and learn from each other as you try out new techniques or just experiment around.
Here’s another one of our arts and crafts Halloween decorations that we use in our home. I love having scary things hanging from our trees. Make a creepy balloon ghost from a simple white balloon and two plain plastic grocery bags. Cut the handles off the bags along with any writing that is on them. Leaving the bottom seam end, use scissors to shred the bag into “danglies” until you get about one inch away from the seam. Blow up the balloon and knot it. With the knot at the top, take tape and tape the seam of one bag to the front of the balloon and one to the front. I like to use black electrical or duct tape because it holds better. Draw a scary face on your ghost and attach a string to the knot of the balloon. Sometimes, I like to attach a couple of bells to the bottom of my ghosts so I can hear them haunting my yard! I make several of these and hang them all over the yard which is a lot of fun for my neighbors and friends!
Arts and crafts Halloween decorations can be easy or difficult, but there’s no doubt about it, when you make your own Halloween décor, the possibilities are limited only by your own creativity!

DÉCOR TIPS & QUIPS from AlphabetPIX.com
Bringing Out Your Inner BOLD!
Bill Blass said, “Style is primarily a matter of instinct.” Decorating takes on a new meaning for each individual. Clever and chic for Janie may be yesterday’s yawn-fest for Carol. Different tastes in dècor mean different furniture, artwork and color palettes. So what is the rule of thumb for making your place zing if it’s not a certain style, pattern, or color?
Bold, baby! Bring out the Y-O-U!
Boldly say what you want to say when designing a room. Make a statement and let your personality shine through. If you go in for the palest blues to soothe and relax, add a custom zing to make it pop! Love black and white photography? Maybe even some of that ultra-hot photo alphabet wall art in black and white? Splash in some passionate pink or revved up red on the wall to make it sizzle.
No longer are walls content with neutral shades. Any color of the palette goes! Splash on muted melons or eccentric eggplants with savvy sage. Classic colors cozy up with velvety crimsons and Dijon yellows. Color is fantastically bold and beautiful! Rich textured throws, swags, rugs and runners jazz up every room, every time.
Patterns are all the rage now, too. Twists and twirls, paisleys and pearls! Did you ever in a million years think of dotting stripes and striping dots? Designers these days are pulling out all the geometrical stops. Paisley mixes with all sorts of combinations-checks, polkas, and weathered solids. Discover a new way of looking at the world around you in different shapes and designs.
Mix it all with gorgeous gilding in silver and gold. Toss in a few well-chosen accents-bold and beautiful. And with the trend of decor becoming more and more personalized, a meaningful piece of photography will make you feel right at home. Black and white as well as the historic look of sepia photography looks gorgeous in any room. Add all these ingredients together, and you’ve got yourself a decorating design that not only expresses your individual style but does so as personally and beautifully as you want it to.
Whatever you want to say while decorating, say it with your own personal sense of style. Put it out there for the world to see and don’t look back! Embrace your individuality whether your nature is “Janie jazzed” or “Carol calm”. Express yourself! When people enter your home they’ll shoot you a complementary smile, knowing it looks and feels sooooo perfectly like you. And no one can do YOU better.
