DIY Halloween Decoration Ideas

The best Halloween decorations for your home are made at home by you and family members, with the pumpkin carving being the centrepiece of all decorations.

There are loads of other DIY Halloween decorations you can make, including some of these:

DIY Halloween Decoration Ideas

• Wine Bottle Candlesticks painted matt black with a yellow/orange candle stuffed in the mouth of the bottle.


• Bubbling Cauldron (just add dry ice and a little bit of water to an old cast iron pot).


• No Haunted home is complete without some fake spider web material stretched all over a door, dining table or any other space you would want to share with a spine-tingling spider.


• Turn your shop bought cake into a spider's den by pipping some white frosting randomly all over the cake.


• Where there are spider's webs there are, yes you guessed it - Spiders! Make giant balloon spiders. Two black balloons (one for the head and one for the body) and some craft wire with black faux fur will do the trick for the legs.
• Tombstone chair covers are super easy to make. All you need is an old pillow case. Use a stencil or just write something spooky in black ink on the pillow case and place it over your dinner table chair.


• Vampire bat leaves. Kids will love making these. Just gather some leaves, spray them with matte black spray paint and draw on little bat faces using a white marker.

Those are just a few things you can do to make your home howl on Halloween night. To add even more dastardly decorations to your home, have a look at some of the products below from B&Q.
