Today we're giving you some inspiration for Halloween decorations that you can easily imitate. All you need to do is purchase some supplies from the craft store and you're ready to go! Follow the instructions or let your imagination run wild and experiment with new colors and shapes.
Carrying spooky ghosts at the tableto get into the right Halloween mood– you can also make these yourself using white napkins. Together with a black colored candle holder and several decorative pumpkins decorated with glitter, you can arrange the ghosts on the dining table or coffee table. You can also welcome the children there in the evening!

A paper lantern will add to the mood - you can cut this out of paper. Small witch silhouettes will complete the idea. Experiment with different variations and let the children help – they will definitely be happy. You can also find it in the photo gallery belowmore craft ideas– let yourself be inspired!
Carve pumpkins and arrange them on your doorstep
The options for designing your home and outdoor space are endless. In addition to the classic, carved pumpkins that you put in front of the front door or Halloween figures for tables, you can also create beautiful decorations with delicious desserts. The so-called cake pops, which are simply made from cake base and then decorated with any icing, are very popular. You can also find great recipes here.
Beautiful decoration for the front door
If you are planning a party, you can surprise the guests at the front door with original decorations. Everything that has to do with the harvest goes well with autumn: scarecrows, which you can also make spooky for Halloween, bales of hay and straw, pumpkins and other seasonal fruits. Maybe you can also find a pretty pumpkin string of lights?
Vvarious DIY ideas
Eyeballs like these are particularly easy to make. All you need are Styrofoam balls that you can paint any way you want. Solid color or with veins doesn't matter. Then glue a googly eye onto each eyeball and insert pipe cleaners into the opposite side. Now you can create bouquets of these eyes in vases and use them to decorate tables, dressers or even the dessert table. The decorations will also make a great impression on the windowsill and can even be admired by walkers.
