One-and-Dones
Decorations you can make in three steps or less!
 |
- Spray paint faux or dying houseplants black for some spooky “greenery.” No time for spray paint? Purchase one of these naturally-black houseplants.
- Pillowcases are the perfect quick-and-easy DIY chair covers! You can find stencils online or draw freehand. The only limit is your imagination!
- Grab a glass and a glue gun for a simple dinnerware DIY guaranteed to impress! Add “blood” dripping down the glass or spiderwebs crawling up the sides. If you don’t have quick access to a glue gun, puff paint is a great alternative!

Boo Crew Approved
Fun for the whole family—no scares, just smiles!
- Oven-bake clay, a ghost-shaped cookie cutter, and black acrylic paint are all you need for this ghostly garland!
- For a fun, quirky centerpiece, have your Halloween helpers glue googly eyes and other funny faces onto small rocks and display them in a serving dish. Have the whole family hunt for rocks together and compete to see who can find the most unique rocks!
- Another great, whole-family craft is Vampire Bat Leaves. Go hunting for “bats” (the leaves), spray paint each leaf black, then use white markers to draw on their faces!

Creepin’ It Crafty
These projects take a bit more time or a steady hand, but the results are worth every eerie minute.
 |
- Repurpose your old glass jars as Halloween lanterns by covering them with tissue paper and gluing on some creepy critters. For extra effect, place a tea light inside to make them glow.
- Stack pumpkins, gourds, and squash of varying sizes on top of each other to make these adorable Toadstool Pumpkins!
- With a little bit of felt and some cheesecloth, these throw pillows will shapeshift into mummies right before your very eyes! Use the felt to create the mummy's face and stitches, then wrap it in the cheesecloth.
