Insanely Easy + Cute Halloween Decor Ideas
Hi there! Today it's Alexis, and I'm going to share with you 25 of the cutest Halloween decorations! Halloween is my favorite holiday. You get to dress up in ridiculous costumes (once I was a taco- so much fun! 🌮🌮🌮), roam around the neighborhood at night, demand candy from strangers, and parents let you do it! What else could you want in on a holiday?
One of my favorite parts of Halloween is decorating for it! We got very energetic, and now our house looks like like a regular haunted house, complete with plastic spiders and glowing pumpkins.
But decorating for Halloween doesn't have to be expensive! No matter how cool those talking witches look like at Michael's, these fun diy crafts will engage and entertain anyone, no matter what age! Some will have instructions, others not.
Note: I'm rating them on how easy they are. When you see bolded letters like this, it will say:
How easy? and I'll put an adjective describing how easy it is. Example:
Super easy!

Garland o' Ghosts

These adorable ghosts are the simplest craft yet!
How Easy? Insanely Easy!
- Take a napkin and crumple it into a ball.
- Take the napkin ball and place it in the middle of a tissue.
- Wrap the tissue around the napkin just so it covers it once, and so there is extra remaining for the "body," if ghosts can have bodies.
- Use a rainbow loom or crazy loom band (or rubber band) to separate the head from the body and so the ball doesn't fall out. Wrap it around just below the head.
- Using a sharpie or black marker, draw a ghost face on the head, like this:
:•
6. (optional) Paper clip the ghosts to a garland by their "collars" to hang them up.
7. (inevitable) Enjoy your adorable little ghosts!
Trash Bag Spiderwebs

These are cute and outdoor-friendly! I think they would look best on the porch or garage, but you decide!
How Easy? Pretty Darn Easy (if you're good at cutting and folding)!

- Lay a trash bag out flat.
- Cut off the bottom and sides so you have two rectangles.
- Trim each piece into a square.
- Fold one of the squares in half diagonally (like origami) so you have a triangle.
- The same triangle gets folded two more times. Use some tape to tape together the layers on the loose side so it will hold the shape together when you're cutting on the last step.
- Remove any tape that is on the web.
- Unfold.
- Vóila!
Note: You can use different sizes of trash bags for differently sized spiderwebs.
