FIVE Halloween Decorations Needing THREE Supplies Or Less


Halloween is by far my favorite holiday of the year. Not only do you get to wear a cool costume and pass out candy but it also signifies a change in the season. All the amazing fall colors and cooler weather that make you want to stay inside and get your craft on! Not to mention that it also signifies the end of all my weekend yard work. Even better!

It is not too much longer before the little goblins and princesses hit the streets for Tricks or Treats. Get into the spirit! Here's some easy ideas for decorations that require three supplies or less. That is my kind of craft!

Mummy Blocks
Have some old scraps of wood blocks laying around? Why not turn them into scary mummies! Super easy to make with very few supplies needed. It calls for 2x4 wood scraps but I think if you vary them in height it would make a more interesting display.



Ghosts
These spooky creatures are the perfect party decoration, as they will take up a lot of floor space.  I never would have thought to use paper-bells in this way. So cool! 



 Specimen Jars
This is one of my creations. I have planned many a Mad Scientist party and these are always the hit of the whole shebang. Simply fill a jar with water and add food coloring of your choice. Then place a creepy toy inside (bug, body part, monster, etc.). Let the madness begin!


Ribbon Wreath
This wreath will add a very elegant touch to your door. No sewing required – just tie ribbons into bows around a wire wreath frame.




Tombstone Cupcake Toppers
Make the Hollow evening’s end a sweet one with these eerie tombstone cupcake topped printouts from Chickabug. Bonus: they come with a sweet graveyard cupcake recipe, the perfect treat to sink your teeth into.
