Many people might find them unpleasant in everyday life, but when it comes to Halloween decorations, spider webs are a beloved classic thanks to their striking design.

If you make colorful spider webs out of origami and stick them on the wall, they alone can brighten up the event.

However, because creating a convincing web requires detailed cutting with scissors, adults should handle the crafting if it’s too difficult for children.

The unusually colorful designs boost the festive mood and make the decorations feel even more Halloween-like.

When it comes to Halloween, pumpkins are a must.

So here’s a craft I’d like to introduce: making yarn pumpkins.

First, wrap yellow yarn around a fork.

Then thread yarn through the center and tie it to form a pumpkin shape.

Add a stem using green yarn.

For the finished pumpkins, I recommend threading them onto pipe cleaners to make a wreath.

You can also add a magnet and stick them on a chalkboard as another fun variation.

Start by making lots of them and then think about how you want to use them!

When it comes to decorating for a Halloween event, you’ll come up with all kinds of ideas, but pumpkins are definitely a must, aren’t they? In the same way, you can prepare multiple pieces of colored paper cut into pumpkin shapes and glue them together to create a three-dimensional object.

Of course, flat illustrations can also brighten up the event, but making it three-dimensional helps create a more pumpkin-like form, so it’s highly recommended.

It’s easy to make, so if you work on it with your children, it’s sure to boost the excitement from the preparation stage.

Witch’s broom

If you want to try a decoration unlike anything you’ve seen elsewhere, we recommend making a witch’s broom.

Even though it’s a witch’s broom, it’s a miniature, so it’s easy to make.

First, prepare paper cord cut into pieces about 5 cm long.

Bundle them together and fasten them to a bamboo skewer with a rubber band.

Then just snip off the tip of the skewer and you’re done.

It looks cute as a decoration, but you could also leave the tip uncut and stick it into food.

By the way, if you roughly trim the ends of the paper cord, it gives it even more of a witchy feel.

Halloween ghost

When we do decorations and crafts, we often use construction paper.

And we usually throw away the scraps as trash, right? But those scraps actually have a surprising use! You can use them to make Halloween ghosts.

First, prepare a balloon and attach crumpled pieces of construction paper all over it.

Then cut out facial features from construction paper and stick those on as well.

Finally, pop the balloon and remove it—your ghost is complete.

Since the inside is hollow, you can fill it with candy or light it up like a lantern, so there are plenty of ways to use it.
