What are the top picks for front yard Halloween decorations?
Inflatables, faux tombstones, and carved pumpkins are excellent choices for the front yard. Inflatables grab attention, carved pumpkins add classic charm, and faux tombstones give a graveyard vibe.
What DIY Halloween decorations can I easily make?
For simple DIY projects, consider mummy mason jars, bug-infused hand soap, or oversized balloon spiders. Mummy jars require just bandages and googly eyes; bug-infused soap uses plastic critters in clear soap dispensers; and balloon spiders involve spray-painted balloons and faux fur-covered wire for legs.
What varieties of outdoor Halloween decorations are there?
Outdoor Halloween decor ranges from inflatables and hanging items to lights and sculptures. Hanging pieces might include cobwebs or themed characters, while inflatables are popular for their ease and impact.
