Halloween is such a fun time of year – dressing up, sweets overload and festive parties. One of the most exciting parts is decorating your home!
Whether it be for a party or just to get your family into the spirit, we’ve collated our top Halloween ideas.
For a different twist on the usual pumpkin, why not make use of your carved pumpkins and turn them into sweet bowls for your trick or treaters. Not only will you have so much fun carving them but they look super fantastic.
A simple yet very effective pumpkin table piece is sure to leave your guests impressed. Small pumpkins are easy to find as they’re usually the ones left until last on the shelves! Carve out the middle and use them as a candle holder or even add some pipe cleaner legs and you have mini spiders.
As Christmas is around the corner, garlands are now appearing in all the shops. Black garlands with orange fairy lights running through it can create a ‘spooky staircase.' It doesn’t take much time at all to create, but the transformation is fang-tastic.
Ghost DIY decorations are very easy to make, simply use an inflated balloon covered in an old sheet and hang from the ceiling.
If you’re not one for tricks during this spooky season, then Strawberry ghosts are the perfect TREAT! So quick and easy to make and they look great on the Halloween buffet. Plus they’re a healthier alternative to all the sweets that fill your trick or treat bags.
Another one for the Halloween buffet! A spider web chocolate cake will be a real treat for all the family – pop on a few plastic spiders and you’re good to go.
For the main course you can also add a little Halloween twist to a traditional winter pie. Feeling creative? Then why not have some fun with your pastry and make some simple pumpkin pastry designs.
Lastly jelly worms, these can be added into anything sweet to instantly add scare to your buffet – we like these ones set in jelly!
