Outdoor Decorating Idea for a Festive Halloween

Looking for some inexpensive and quick ideas for outdoor Halloween decorations? Our family recently enjoyed the beautiful, cool weather and spent some time sprucing up our side porch to welcome the witches and goblins that will be visiting in a couple of weeks! Everything we used was either purchased for $1 at a local store, found in the yard, or was buried in a box of Halloween decorations in the attic from last year. With some creativity and simple substitutions, you can duplicate a similar look at minimal cost. Happy Halloween!


Spiderweb material: $1 at local store
This decoration works very well on bushes as well!


Tree branches: found in yard
Crows: $1 at local store, Owls: personal decorations


Trick or Treat sign: $1 at local store
Witch’s broom: sticks from yard/ spray-painted
Lights, witch’s legs, rat, draping: personal decorations
*The orange glow lights add a great effect in the witch’s cauldron at night!
In lieu of a tub, a large planter can be used for the cauldron.


Pumpkins: local pumpkin patch
Pumpkin mummy décor: $1/set at local store
