This year, more than in the past I’ve gotten more into Halloween, and Halloween decor. Not that Halloween is something I don’t enjoy, but spending more time indoors; means wanting to make the most of the fun! So unlike any before; I’ve found myself getting more into bringing a little Spooky Season into the house.
Here are some fun, creative decorating ideas, you could try if you’d like to do the same!
Recently I had a little fun ordering some crafty goodies from Hobbycraft online. I picked out some fun bits and pieces for Halloween; as I mentioned I don’t usually go all in for Halloween decor; but its something different to do while we’re spending more time indoors!
I really liked these paint your own “speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil” skulls, and it seemed like something fun and easy to keep me occupied over a couple of evenings!
They come with six little paint pots (black, white, red, purple, green and orange paints) and a paint brush. I chose purple, red and green; (mixed with black because I thought the green was too bright) for my skulls. The brush was too big for the details, luckily I have some cheap paintbrushes in the craft room so I used a smaller one, and in the end opted for pen for the detailing as I could work to an even finer level…. But they’re kinda fun and brighten up the Halloween stuff I have!
One thing I just HAD to have was this cute pumpkin-jack-o’-lantern tealight holder; and I used the paint from my fun skulls to make him wonderfully orange, along with a bit of orange glitter glue. Because who doesn’t want a bit of sparkle here and there?!
For more Halloween crafting check out my heat transfer cushion in this post.
I also got this fun ghost candle holder in Poundland, along with some artificial battery tealights, which completes my fun candle “haul” if you can call it that!
If you fancy some other fun, creative Halloween decor ideas, you can always head to Pinterest (give me a follow too!) I found a few fun and easy things like these milk bottle lanterns, using glow sticks!
I also love the idea of painting leaves, or even hand prints for some fun Halloween kids crafts! How cute are they!
