Halloween is right around the corner, and preparing for parties, buying treats, and conjuring up costumes have us giddy with anticipation. However, creating our own unique Halloween décor gets us excited the most. In this edition of Treetopia Loves, we present 6 easy Halloween decorations to D-I-Y for.
Yarn Wrapped Monster Canisters
These creepy creature canisters from our very own Jennifer Perkins are a delightful project to get the kids excited for Halloween. Simply wrap the canisters with some yarn and use glue to keep them from unraveling. Use yarn and some felt to create your own unique Halloween characters! Learn more about this project here.
Halloween Drip Pots
Jen created these easy Halloween Drip Pots as transitional mantelpiece décor. The orange pot blends well with black and white for Halloween, but Jen says you can experiment with different colors or even add in a couple of witch legs, like the ones found here .
Spooky Paper Lanterns
Lia Griffith’s Paper Lanterns are a fantastic way to guide trick-or-treaters through your front yard. The lanterns are cut from black metallic paper while the frosted “glass” is made of white vellum, and small tea lights give these lanterns their glow. For the full tutorial, including printable templates, head on over to Lia Griffith’s post here.
Pumpkin Diorama
A diorama is a great way to set the tone for your themed parties, and Karen’s Pumpkin Die-Orama hits the nail on the head for Halloween. According to her,” the absolute BEST part about it is you can do ANYTHING. Scary, cute, childlike, eerie.” Get inspired to create your own Halloween diorama by visiting her post at The Art of Doing Stuff.
Black and White Halloween Topiary
If you don’t mind getting your hands dirty to give your guests a fitting Halloween welcome, another Jen on the list has you covered.
