5 DIY Halloween Decor Ideas

With Halloween only a day away, make sure your house is all set for trick-or-treaters and any parties you have planned. ABCey has gathered 5 easy DIY’s that you can add last minute to make sure your decorations are top notch!

1. Pumpkins | You may not have time to carve pumpkins anymore, but we love the simple idea of painting your pumpkins or drilling holes in them to use with candles! Both take little effort and time and look great!

2. Candles | These ghoulish candles make for the perfect party accents and are so easy! All you have to do is light a candle and when the wax melts, let it drip over another one and ta da!

3. Banners | These banners are super easy and look great draped over a table or a staircase! We love the eyeball one made with just paper!

4. Treats | These crowd pleasing favorites are a safe go-to. Our favorite is the ghostly strawberries! For the Muddie Buddies, just use colored chocolate chips to get that Halloween vibe!

and for the finishing touch…

5. Floating Ghosts | These decorations look high end but are so easy to recreate and only take a few supplies.

Pumpkin Carving Party

We are always looking for any excuse to have an event! This October, why not have some friends over for a pumpkin carving party? What better way to ring in the holidays and to relax with friends?! Here are 5 of ABCey’s favorite things we think you may need for this Halloween inspired event.

1. Blankets | We love all these blanket ideas from Brit+Co. So cute and warm, we can’t pick!

2. Warm Spiced Cider | Warm spiced cider is a must for any party past September. Our favorite is this one from Trader Joes!

3. Pumpkin Pie Popcorn | Spice up this snack with the perfect fall flavor: pumpkin! Guests will love this fun take on the otherwise ordinary snack.

4. The Perfect Playlist | No party is set without the perfect playlist. We like to use Grooveshark to make playlists and share them with our friends.

5. Pumpkins and Cutting tools |We love this article from Marthat Stewart with all the pumpkin tools you could ever need and how to use them!
