What do you get when a vampire, witch, and ghost walk up to your front door? Halloween, that is! Known as one of the best holidays on the calendar, this spooky-fun day is a great way to let your creative juices flow — especially when it comes to decorating your front yard! If you’re looking for some inspiration, then here are some fun DIY ideas to help you get started!
Looking for the ultimate Halloween decoration besides pumpkins? Try implementing some faux bats into your holiday display! Taking less than thirty minutes to create a series of bats, head to your local craft store and pick up some black felt. Once you acquire the material, take a stencil of a bat (or freehand the design) and then cut out as many decorative bats you’d like to make! Once complete, attach them to your front door with some durable, double-sided tape for the spookiest home on the block!
One of the most iconic Halloween decorations: spiderwebs. Usually adorned on trees and bushes, these cobweb wonders transform your property — but also damage foliage once you take them off your plants. Instead of using synthetic spiderwebs, try making a gigantic spiderweb out of a clothesline! Stop by your local home improvement store and pick up some inexpensive clothesline rope. From there, tie the pieces into a circular pattern that closely resemble an actual spiderweb. Once the assembly process is complete, it’s time to cover your bushes with this larger than life spiderweb — which will definitely be a focal point for sure!
Have some bare branched trees on your property? Instead of letting them sit there, dress them up! Take a trip to your local dollar store and find some unique Halloween decorations, such a faux crows! After you acquire your Halloween goodies, take some string/wire and securely attach each of the crows to the tree branches. Once the crows are safely secured to the tree, you’ll have the most decadent Halloween tree in your town!
