Halloween Hacks With Dollar Store Stuff
Still looking to do some last-minute Halloween decorating? Here are some easy ways to whip up some spooky stuff from the dollar store! (Check this link for more.)
- Hot-glue ping-pong balls to a foam or wire wreath, then stick googly eyes on the balls to make a spooky door hanging.
- Tape tissue paper to white balloons–instant ghost! You can also draw faces on them with Sharpies.
- You can also Sharpie ghost faces onto empty plastic milk jugs, then light them from within using cheap LED lights.
- A black trash bag easily transforms into a giant spider web when you fold it and cut it just like you would a paper snowflake.
- Cut zombie arms out of black poster or form core board and tape them to your staircase bannister.
- Print out scary, black-and-white images from simple computer paper and Mod Podge them onto candles.
- Get some small, cheap spider rings and other spooky plastic doodads and stuff them inside hand-soap containers to scare guests at the sink.
- Buy a bunch of white candles and one red candle, then melt the red candle onto the white ones for a “bloody” look.
- Hot-glue yarn and plastic spiders to glass votives, then drop a candle in there for a spooky glow.
- Combine white glue and red food coloring, stick your hands in there, then press onto sheets of wax paper and let dry. Voila: Bloody window clings!
