Halloween Party Decorating Ideas
If you are someone who plans on hosting a Halloween party decorating ideas will certainly come in handy.
It doesn't matter if you're entertaining adults or children, there are a lot of decorations that you can use that are appropriate for all ages, some of which are considered absolute essentials for any Halloween party.
Spiderwebs – Top on the list of Halloween party decorating ideas are spiderwebs. Grab yourself a bag of cotton balls and pull, pull, pull until they're stringy. One bag can go a long way! These can be placed pretty much anywhere. Be sure to hang one low in front of the door and mist it before guests arrive so they feel it as it sticks to their foreheads.
Candles – There should definitely be some bloody candles however, smaller tea lights can really come in handy for creating shadows. If you have paper bats or witches hanging, place a candle under the so the shadow will be cast on the wall behind.
Create a Back Drop – Want to darken some of your home and hide your decor that just doesn't belong? Hang large black trash bags. Chances are, it will be dark anyway and if you string spiderwebs in front, no one will ever know.
Staircase Shadow – Next on the list of Halloween party decorating ideas is one that will make an impact as soon as guests arrive. If you have stairs going up in your entryway like many people do, you're going to create an extra tall shadow. Line two or three pieces of black poster board on the floor and draw one large shadow person that extends over all pieces. Measure the vertical areas on the stairs and cut strips that are this wide. You will tape one at every stair leading up. So it looks as though there's someone there lurking.
Rodents and Insects - Spiders are a requirement for any Halloween party. They can be made from paper or egg cartons or you can buy them in bulk. Of course, mice are always a nice touch as well.
Black Lace Fabric – You can find rolls of fabric with black lace, sometimes even with bats or cats, etc., fairly cheap at any fabric store. Cut pieces of this to drape over lampshades or use as table clothes.
Garland – Sure, you can buy Halloween theme garland, banners and flags but you can also make them using printable stencils!
Bloody Shower Curtain – You can find clearance white shower curtains anywhere. Grab a paintbrush and red paint and add some blood. Make sure you make a few hand prints as well!
Jack O'Lanterns – Last on the list of Halloween party decorating ideas is something everyone loves to make. Jack O'Lanterns can be placed both inside and outside your home. Carving them may be your favorite part of decorating!
