[Halloween Crafts] Stylish Decoration Ideas That Adults and Kids Can Enjoy

Lollipop of the Ghost

Let’s make ghost lollipops to get into the Halloween spirit.

First, create a ghost out of white construction paper.

If the kids are fairly used to crafts, they can make it freely.

Next, dye some paper towels with paint.

Using a dropper to drip the paint makes it easier to dye and keeps cleanup simple.

Since the paint will become the color of the candy, it’s best to prepare bright colors.

Once the paper towels are dry, twist them into a stick shape, then wind them around and glue them onto a piece of thick paper that will serve as the base.

You’ll need several sheets of paper towel, so dyeing extra in advance will give you peace of mind.

Finally, attach the candy stick and the ghost to the candy, and you’re done!

pumpkin garland

This is a pumpkin-themed garland made from construction paper.

It’s very easy to make.

Just stack three strips of paper of different lengths in order and staple them together! Make several of the same piece, then thread them through the stem part to complete a lovely garland.

Once you remember the order, all you have to do is stack and staple, so even young children and older adults can enjoy making it.

Using Halloween colors like orange, purple, and yellow for the pumpkins enhances the vibe and is highly recommended.

Spider web decoration

Let’s make spider web decorations together with 4–5-year-olds.

First, cut the rim of a paper cup in a wavy line and draw a face to make a ghost.

Next, crumple some tissue paper, wrap it with patterned paper to make a candy.

Then paint wooden sticks white, arrange four of them like spokes, and glue them together.

The key is to attach them firmly with glue.

To make the spider, wrap black yarn around a plastic fork about 50 times, secure it, then cut with scissors to make a pom-pom.

Use pipe cleaners to create the spider’s legs and attach them to the pom-pom.

For the finishing touch, weave white thread around the wooden sticks to form a spider web, then attach all the items you made to complete the decoration.

[Paper Fan] Jack-o’-Lantern Wall Decoration

How to Make a Halloween (Jack-o’-Lantern) Paper Fan

A paper fan is a fan-shaped decoration made out of paper.

It’s a very handy item for things like party wall decor.

Why not use a paper fan to make a Jack-o’-lantern wall decoration? It’s easy to make: fold a sheet of construction paper in half horizontally and open it up, then turn the paper vertically and accordion-fold it.

Once you’re done folding, tie the center—the crease you made earlier—with nylon thread.

Join the two ends of the accordion folds to form a circle, then just stick on the facial features and you’re done! With a little creativity, you can make all kinds of decorations.

pumpkin basket

Halloween! Pumpkin basket — easy Scandinavian-style diagonal weave. Also great as a hanging ornament.

Let’s make an atmospheric Halloween decoration by crafting a jack-o’-lantern using mesh cord! First, prepare twelve orange mesh cords, each 26 cm long, and mark the center on four of them.

Create the first weave using those four cords, then add the remaining cords.

Next, mark the base with a pencil and fold along the marks using a ruler or another straight edge.

Continue weaving the upright cords, then fold the upper ends back and weave them into the body to finish the edge.

Finally, glue on the jack-o’-lantern’s face and handle, and you’re done!

[Halloween] How to Make Realistic Pumpkins out of Paper – DIY How to Make Paper Pumpkins / Tutorial [Halloween]

Let’s make pumpkin decorations using construction paper.

The rounded, expanded 3D shape works anywhere—on a shelf, by the entryway, or on top of a piano.

First, create a template with cardstock.

Next, place the template on folded construction paper and trace it with a pencil.

After cutting along the outline, glue the parts together and shape them so they expand into a round form.

Lightly glue the edges where the cuts are as well.

Thread jute twine through the center and shape it into a pumpkin.

Then lay the flattened jute twine around the core, trim to a suitable length, and you’re done.

[Swipe Art] Colorful Monster

Swipe art is a technique where you place paint on paper and swipe it with a stiff piece of paper to add color.

This time, let’s use swipe art to make cute, colorful monsters.

First, put the paints you’ll use for the monsters’ colors onto white drawing paper.

It’s best to choose clean, harmonious colors that look good next to each other.

Next, use an opened-up milk carton to swipe the paint.

You can swipe straight or create curves—feel free to experiment.

Once the paint is dry, cut out monster shapes and add faces to finish.

Adjust the steps to suit the children’s ages.
