It’s officially…spooky season! (or spoopy season if you adore all things cute and Halloween) As I grew older through a fair share of Halloweens, I didn’t care too much for the holiday. I think I was most enthusiastic about the candy; as most kids probably are. Things took a turn when I realized Halloween was a day you could be anything you wanted! It became so easy to indulge in that world of creative possibility! So naturally, we’ve got some Halloween party decor ideas up our sleeve to make celebrating easy. Peruse through and find the perfect spook-tacular accents to set the mood!
Vanilla Bean Skull Cake for Halloween
I’m going straight for the decor you can eat – because why not?! I am practically foaming at the mouth just saying Vanilla Bean Skull Cake for Halloween. I’m warning you this post has funny taglines, starting with “deliciously creepy” and “let them eat skull cake”. This is the Halloween decor that does it all: spooky, festive and ready to eat!
Halloween Garland
Check out this boo-tiful Halloween Garland for a bright fall announcement! Inside or outside, this works great for party decor in a doorframe or hallway. Mix and match colors, shapes and words depending on the vibe you’re going for. Easy and quick you can have this garland up in no time, not to mention easy take down as well!

These Spooky Transfer Wood Plaques for DIY Halloween Art are the perfect new-turned-old decor for a halloween party. Any bug-obsessed entomologists in the room? Sounds like a great Halloween theme to me. Stylish, simple, and sure to nail that rustic Halloween ambiance!
Creepy Printable Art Decor for Halloween
Again, what is it about the Baroque Era that is perfect for Halloween?! This Creepy Printable Art Decor for Halloween reminds me of Harry Potter or honestly even the Haunted Mansion. Something so classical and castle-y, but may make you feel like there’s a ghost in the room! Surely not haunted…definitely not staring at you from the wall…100% great addition to any Halloween party.
DIY Ghost Tablecloth for Halloween
Make Halloween up close and personal…on the dinner table! Make a DIY Ghost Tablecloth for Halloween with only 4 materials. So easy if you need a ghoul or a mummy in a pinch! It’s just subtle enough to spook you by surprise once you notice it hidden in the table spread. You can apply the same method that Lars uses her to other objects as well, like say a hand or an arm. Muahaha. What’s creeping on your Halloween table?
Printable Custom Name Tags
Details, details, details! Who said Halloween parties can’t be fancy? Printable Custom Name Tags do the trick every time…or is it a treat?! No assembly required, you can have them ready hot off the press (printer haha). Could be part of a memorable party favor to keep or even a printable to save for later if you want to use it for a non-Halloween holiday! Pair with some skeleton hands or other appropriate decor you want your guests to eye. Front and center on your plate, they surely will not go unnoticed!
Haunted Cardboard Houses for Recycled Holiday Decor
If you don’t have any extra cardboard lying around, you may be navigating the wrong website. If you are normal, and have tons of cardboard lying around that never seems to make it to the recycling – then you were born for these Haunted Cardboard Houses for Recycled Holiday Decor. “This is Halloween this is Halloween” from the Nightmare Before Christmas is now immediately running through my head as we speak about haunted houses. Right off the top of my head I thought of building the castle from Beauty and the Beast, Shipwreck’s Cove from Pirates of the Caribbean or Halloweentown! There is so much potential for cardboard creations!
Halloween decoration spiders
This is a crowning jewel when it comes to simple, but effective. Halloween decoration spiders are just what they sound like – but not to be downplayed because they are a visual double-take! Visitors will be able to see them from a distance since they are hung outside. And nope their eyes won’t be playing tricks on them, these are indeed gigantic spiders! Command strips will go the distance here to create this fantastic Halloween illusion.
DIY Rainbow Pumpkins
Just because it’s Halloween doesn’t mean you can’t have a little color! DIY Rainbow Pumpkins go the extra mile for color enthusiasts. A pretty project that works all season long too! After gathering pumpkins of various shapes and sizes, you can create a color scheme that flows. If you can’t stand the drab black for Halloween, rainbow pumpkins to the rescue!
Paper Bag Portrait Luminaries
Did someone say eccentric and candlelit? Paper Bag Portrait Luminaries? Bingo! Set up these glowy black and white pieces on the porch or around the house for a mesmerizing effect. 10/10 Halloween party trick if you’re looking to add some intrigue to the mood. You just can’t help but wonder about the people behind the portraits, especially in the context of Halloween! Lars provides the magic…leave Halloween to provide the mystery!
