Decorating your home or office for Halloween for the first time need not be such a difficult task. There are so many different projects to choose from. When thinking of a Halloween craft project, categorize your plan into three sections: decor that suspends, decor that sticks, and decor that sits. Halloween Craft Project For Decor That Suspends No house is a haunted house without creepy critters hanging above our heads. Hanging Halloween decor is especially great for offices, too, since they are easy to make and clean up afterwards. Bats To make bats as Halloween craft project, you'll need a Styrofoam sheet, fishing line, white/yellow paper, black paint, paintbrush, marker, glue, scissors, and masking/scotch tape. Begin by drawing a bat shape on the Styrofoam sheet using a marker. You can search online for free bat templates and print them out. Cut out the outline and fill in the cutout bat shape with black paint using a paintbrush. Let dry. Cut out white/yellow paper into bat's eyes and glue them to the bat-shaped Styrofoam. You can also use Googly eyes. Now that you've completed your bat, attach the fishing line on the bat's head with tape and suspend on ceilings, doorways and windows. Creepy Spiders If you want to make creepy spiders for Halloween craft project, you'll have to prepare some strings, egg carton, black tempera paint, pipe cleaners, Googly eyes, scissors, needle paintbrush and tape. Start this project by painting the whole egg carton with black tempera. Cut out a cell and let it sit with the hollow side facing downwards. Insert pipe cleaners through the bottom part to make the spider's legs. Glue on the Googly eyes. Punch tiny holes on the top part of the cell with a needle and slide thread through them to suspend in the hair and hang on ceilings and furnishings. A Halloween Craft Project For Decor That Sticks One easy Halloween craft project for decor that is ideal for homes and offices are those that stick. One example would be fake cobwebs and you can use stretchable cobweb material for this or even just thread. You can find stretchable cobwebs in any specialty shop. These are cotton-like material that can be stretched and attached to almost any fixture/furnishing. To your cobwebs look more interesting and realistic, you can also add a pack of glitter. Sprinkle over your fake cobwebs to give them that dewy appearance. Cobwebs are fairly easy to make. Just try to be creative to make your cobwebs stand out more. The Halloween Craft Project For Decor That Sits Making Halloween craft project that sits is easy because it is very versatile and you can utilize a wide range of materials. Create a dining table for the dead! Carve up pumpkins and place tea candles in them. Make these Jack-O-Lanterns as centerpieces on your dining table. Compliment the pumpkins with dead leaves, twigs and dried flowers. If you are brave, you may complete the look by adding rubber rats. If you are doing bats this year, why not hang spiders next year? Or, you can change your dining table settings from the pumpkin theme to a witch's cauldron theme. Keep imagining for your next Halloween craft project!
