Halloween is quickly approaching and we need to prepare out homes and gardens for the big night. Have you ever celebrated Halloween? Well, those who live in USA will definitely have at least once celebrated this very popular holiday in the country. People who live outside America may not have been involved into a Halloween party but not matter which type of person you are, you can always do some decorations for this year’s October 31st.

You need to know that there are two types of decorations that you can make. The first type is those that you go and buy from your local store -they are easy to install, the variety is enormous and you will find amazing frightening items there. The second option is to spend some time doing the decorations on your own. That’s why today we are going to pay special attention to the DIY Halloween decorations because I have always been thinking that people devoted to doing something on their own actually can feel the spirit of the holiday better.

So, what are these decorations?

DIY Halloween Decorations for Indoor Use

This topic is almost boundless, since there are many combinations of items that you can place in your home. You can keep the things simple and decorate only the dining room or the place where you are going to celebrate. You can even place a single jack-o’-lantern made on your own and light it up with a candle inside the pumpkin. Other people prefer to decorate the entire house with spider nets, skulls, ravens and all these scary stuff. I have seen some very amazing decorations, handmade of course, of black mirrors which have been turned in to a real horror object. As for the inside DIY Halloween decorations, I believe that some handmade garlands in orange, hollowed pumpkins as lanterns and sweets placed in hurricane jars with black or orange ribbons is enough.

Many families live in houses with enough place either in their backyard or in the front lawn or garden. This areas are just perfect for a garden party and that’s why you need to decorate the green areas with the most amazing items that you have made. If you want to make things happen quickly, you can always prepare a few paper garlands with scary writings on them. They look gorgeous! In order to bring some light in the night of Halloween, you can also use these kind of bulbs attached to a wire and hang then on the tree nearby. Another great idea is to place candles in small jars, outline and decorate the path to your entry door. I have seen this idea in one of my friends’ house and I find it just perfect!

Of course, parties are inevitable part of the celebration of holidays. If you are expecting guests you have to make the best effort to surprise them. If you want to make some handmade decorations, I will give you the perfect idea! Personalized guest cards with your guest’s name. You can make them out of card and write a personal message to each of you visitors. Then, place the cards at the table, in front of every person’s place. This idea is not only beautiful but also very functional. When your visitors come, they will easily find their place on the table and while reading the message, they will feel special, since your handwriting will be a true evidence for loving and respecting them.
