Easy and Cute! Handmade Halloween Accessories (1–10)
Snack box
When it comes to handmade goodies that soothe the soul with cute ghosts and pumpkins, the go-to is a treat box.
You can make a simple rectangular box big enough to hold sweets or small items.
Just prepare orange and white origami paper and fold in order—that’s all it takes.
Once the box is finished, draw the facial features with a pen and top it with a hat made from origami, and you’re done.
Since you won’t be using glue or scissors, it’s a safe craft for children and older adults.
Try making this fun-to-create and adorable-to-display item!
Halloween piñata
Piñatas are used at festivals in Mexico and countries across Central and South America.
Make ones themed after jack-o’-lanterns and ghosts to liven up your Halloween parties and events! Apply glue to strips of thin washi paper and paste them onto a large balloon.
Once the surface looks whitish, hang it for a day to harden, then pop the balloon with a utility knife.
After threading a string through, decorate the surface with tissue paper and construction paper to finish.
Why not fill it with Halloween-specific candies and toys and have some fun?
Halloween wreath
For decorating the walls and doors of your Halloween party venue, I recommend a Halloween wreath.
It’s known for its cute round silhouette made from twigs, leaves, and flowers.
You can easily make one using only items from a dollar store, making it perfect for anyone who wants to try crafting their own Halloween decorations.
Use a hot glue gun to attach seasonal items like autumn fruits and leaves.
Try placing Halloween-themed characters—like jack-o’-lanterns and ghosts—at the center of the wreath to create a festive accent piece.
snack bag
Using construction paper and string, you can easily make Halloween-themed items featuring ghost and pumpkin faces! Cut and paste construction paper to create the container, then attach parts like eyes, mouth, and nose on the outside.
Finish by making the bag’s handle with string, and you’re done! If you want a more festive look, using colorful pipe cleaners is also recommended.
Give it a try and make an item that’s perfect for handing out sweets at Halloween parties and events.
Halloween candle
A handmade craft using colored wax to make candles.
Let’s create them with Halloween characters like pumpkins and ghosts as the theme! Stir the warmed wax, and when the moisture has evaporated, wrap it in plastic.
Once you shape it, remove the plastic, attach parts made by pouring wax into silicone molds, and add facial features to finish.
The process itself is fun, so it’s also recommended for children and seniors.
Try making a one-of-a-kind original creation!
Halloween lantern
Halloween lanterns are perfect for nighttime events and parties, such as Halloween Night.
They’re easy to make with just a plastic bottle, construction paper, and origami paper.
Cut the construction paper into equal strips and attach them to the plastic bottle.
Be sure to leave an opening at the bottom where the light will shine through.
Next, attach the facial features, and wrap the bottle cap with origami paper—then you’re done! Simply shine a light from below in the dark to create a handmade decoration with a festive Halloween atmosphere.
Halloween embroidery
Handmade accessories adorned with glossy satin stitch embroidery are adorable.
Let’s create pieces inspired by Halloween characters like pumpkins, ghosts, and bats.
Use satin thread and a needle to embroider on fabric.
The trick is to stitch in sections, such as the facial features and outlines.
This is recommended for those who want to make items for Halloween events or add a little accent to handmade clothes and bags.
