DIY Halloween Decor: Budget-Friendly Ways to Create a Spooky Atmosphere


By Laura Leiva|

DIY Halloween decorations are a fun and affordable way to transform your space into a spooky wonderland. From eerie lighting to creepy silhouettes, you can craft the perfect atmosphere with a few simple materials. 

Here are five easy DIY projects to get started.

  • Floating Ghosts: Foam balls, white sheets, and fishing lines create the perfect illusion of a floating ghost. Find an easy tutorial online and hang them from your porch and trees for a spooky vibe!

  • Spider Web Mason Jars: For a spooky glow, wrap mason jars with faux spider webs and add LED votive candles for a safe yet festive table centerpiece.

  • Creepy Silhouettes: Use black cardstock to cut out spooky figures like witches or bats to place in your windows. 

  • Pumpkins and String Lights: Fill mason jars with fairy lights and place them outside your pumpkin display. This adds a bit of charm without worrying about lighting candles. 

  • Chalkboard Tombstones: Use plywood and chalkboard paint to make reusable DIY tombstones for your yard.

Chances are you’ll create some pretty cool decorations with items you’ve got around the house! Whether decorating for a party or celebrating the season, these budget-friendly ideas will help you create a hauntingly good time.
