Halloween Decorations

I have really really been getting into the Halloween mood this year. My house is already fully decorated and ready to go... and all for pretty cheap!

 When you walk in the door to our house these Dollar Tree Pumpkins are sitting on our entry table with a "creepy cloth" also from Dollar Tree. I wrote the BOO myself so excuse the sloppiness of it.

 

I got these ideas from Martha Stewart. So easy and super fun. I just used her stencils on black foam for 58 cents at Hobby Lobby and taped to our lamp shades. I used the same concept for the bats below on the inside of the shade. The stencils are for free at Martha Stewart.com. The spider web I created out of yarn and tape and found the ginormous spider at the Dollar Tree.

I had a couple of extra black frames laying around and found this vintage frame idea here. I pasted my photos on brown cardboard paper to help make it pop.

 

Another great idea from Martha Stewart.com is to put cheese cloth over candlestick holders and put creepy crawlers on them. The black candlesticks make them pop. I just inherited these candlesticks from my Nana and am loving using them for my Halloween decorations.

On my lunch break today with all of Michael's halloween decor being 30% off I bought the sweet little tree above and cute little ornaments to hang on them. It was the perfect look for our coffee table.

 

My green pumpkins were 98 cents at Walmart and I love the spaztic little owl that tops the tree.

I am a little obsessed with these napkin balls. I have used them at every party we have thrown. These were multi-purposed from Drew's Harley Party and now for Halloween. They are hanging from the 3 main chandeliers in our house as well as sitting on a couple shelves. They are so easy to make and add a fun pop. A tutorial can be found here.

 

I made this wreath out of black feathers hot glued to a styrophome circle. The little bats and Boo were found at Hobby Lobby half off. It hung on our door for a day before I saw a wreath tutorial I liked better. My inspiration came from here.

Take a plain wooden wreath and spray paint it black.

I then spread this packaged spider web, that I found at Michael's,  across the wreath.

These are a few things I picked up at Michael's to decorate my wreath with.

 

 

I absolutely LOVE the way it turned out... cute and spooky at the same time. Total cost probably $17 and I haven't seen one pre-made in the store that I would like any better :)

Now I just have to focus on what to be for Halloween because my house is all ready!!
