Decorating Tips
Perfect your Halloween outdoor decorating skills with these tips.
Safety First
Make sure you are using Halloween decorations marked safe for outdoor use. Clear walkways and paths of wires or other hazards that might be dangerous for trick-or-treaters.
Don’t Scrimp on Lighting
Playing with light and shadow is integral to a creepy Halloween display. Get creative with string lights, lanterns, and LED candles to set the right atmosphere. You can even use colored lights for a festive ambience.
Stick to a Theme
Create a cohesive and impactful display by selecting a theme and decorations that suit your vision. Marry your outdoor and indoor Halloween decorations by echoing the same theme or using the same décor elements.
Try the Rule of Threes
When making an eye-catching vignette, try this trick by decorating experts: Group together three complementary items into an attractive display. Choose décor in contrasting sizes and textures for visual interest, but all related to one theme.
