Halloween is just around the corner. You better be prepping your decorations and costumes now, because it will be here before you think! I’ve already got my costume in order. It is probably the least crafty costume I’ve made since freshman year of college. I usually love the process of making the costume- but this one was too cute and easy to pass up. Don’t worry, you’ll see what it is eventually. I’m just not ready to tell you quite yet.
Halloween can be spooky, but it doesn’t have to be. I’m a fan of cute halloween. I love any excuse for cute decorations and crafts!
So, in honor of halloween, here are 5 adorable halloween crafts to inspire you!
1. Gourd Ghosts
These ghosts from House of Hawthorne may be the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. And they are so easy. All you have to do is paint the gourds white and add their faces, then cover them with a cheesecloth. Seriously, so adorable.
2. Hanging Bat
Who knew bats could be so adorable? Apparently the genius behind this craft, Buggy and Buddy, that’s who. With an old toilet paper roll, some paint, construction paper, googley eyes, and pipe cleaners, you can make these cute bats to hang all over the place!
3. Drilled Pumpkins
If you’re anything like me, no matter how crafty, you always mess up pumpkins. There’s just something about them. Well, this method is foolproof! Anyone can hold a drill to a pumpkin. Way easier than a knife. Thanks to The Garden Glove for this awesome halloween decoration.
4. Mummy Cups
You can use some toilet paper rolls, white fabric scraps, and googley eyes to make the cutest mummies you’ve ever seen. Outnumbered sure makes it look easy! You could even use some cans or mason jars to create the same effect.
5. Candy Corn Mason Jars
You won’t believe how easy these adorable candy corn mason jars are. With white, yellow, and orange spray paint, using Mason Jar Crafts Love’s method, anyone could certainly make these!
Okay, seriously. I knew Halloween could be cute, but these are just to stinkin cute. I can’t get enough. What’s your favorite Halloween craft?
