Home Decor Halloween Arts and Crafts That Are Fun to Make

Wouldn't it be awesome to do some Halloween arts and crafts to transform your home into one of the scariest haunted houses in town? Your kids will absolutely love this idea. All you need is a theme, some accessories, appropriate lighting and sound effects.


Cemetery Halloween Arts and Crafts Theme
Coffins, bones, stone hedges, and dead bodies are appropriate for a cemetery theme.


You can use a cardboard box in making a scary coffin. Also get a large-size cardboard piece and cut out the shape of a coffin for the opening/cover. Paint a red or white cross over the top of the coffin.


You can imitate the sound of stepping over a mass of bones by drying bread in the oven and placing them under an area rug.


Cut out stone hedges out of Styrofoam, paint them gray, and write R.I.P. over them with a marker. You can also write your names or guest's names for that spooky feeling.


Make body parts by stuffing rubber/latex gloves with cotton and painting the opening red for that bloody effect.


For a realistic touch to your home decor, you can fill goblets with blood and display them in hallways and your dining area! This will enhance that vampire-in-coffin feel. You can purchase clear plastic goblets and have fun mixing red food coloring. Make the blood thicker by adding cornstarch to the mixture.


A Pumpkin Yard Halloween Arts And Crafts Theme
You don't always have to use real pumpkins in a Halloween arts and crafts pumpkin them. You can use other items such as green bell peppers and mandarins and place tea candles in them to create scary faces.


For an old, creepy, deserted look you can spread dried leaves along the hallway and on tables. Hang sticks in your porch. Place plastic spiders, rats and eyeballs within the mass of dead leaves and sticks.


A scary scarecrow would be another Halloween arts and crafts idea you can add to your pumpkin yard. Hang an old, dusty shirt over a clothes hanger. Staple the bottom part of the shirt and stuff it with hay or dead grass. Use dead branches for the arms. Then, use a witch's hat for the covered scarecrow head. Punch a hole in the hat where the hook of the hanger can go through. Hang the body over windows, doors or cabinet handles.


For cobwebs, you can use cottons which you can spread all over the place. Cotton cobwebs is great for any theme you may have in mind. You can also use washable paint on your windows-you can either use spooking green all over or apply splashes of red for "blood".


Replace your white bulbs with black, orange or red ones bulbs for an eerie lighting effect. You can also cover lamps with colored cloth or netting for eerie shadows.


Scary sounds can be easily downloaded online. Choose sounds of creaking doors, howling wolves, screaming, and ghosts.
