The devil is in the detail
When it comes to Halloween interiors, October is the time to embrace all the spooky vibes, creating an eerie yet stylish atmosphere in your home.

Whether you prefer a subtle touch or want to go all out, explore DIY options to transform your living space into a spooktacular den without breaking the bank. With the right decor, you can effortlessly infuse your home with a Halloween spirit that captivates both children and adults alike.
Creepy curb appeal
Entryways, driveways and porches are the first things we see when approaching a home to trick or treat. Creating a spooky ambience in these areas will make a lasting first impression, guaranteed to get you in the spirit!
For these areas it's important to consider pumpkins, door wreaths, eerie lighting and even larger outdoor decorations such as light up ghosts and witches to really amplify the space.
Pumpkin carving is a great activity to get you in the spirit of Halloween. Pinterest is a great tool for seeking ideas and inspiration - get crafty and try a detailed design, or stay comfortable with a simple spooky face, the choice is yours!
Breakfast with bats!
The dining room is a great place to decorate to enhance your home. Consider Halloween-themed tablecloths and runners, tall candlesticks, themed napkins, and other classic decorations to infuse a spooky vibe into your home.
Another fun task ahead of the Halloween season is baking themed cakes, think witch decorated cupcakes, spider cookies, and other terrifying treats! You can find a huge amount of recipes online.
Chilling children’s rooms
Finally, to continue the Halloween festivities, why not incorporate age-appropriate decorations into children’s rooms to create a fun and spooky atmosphere that kids will enjoy.
Consider adding items like friendly ghost cutouts, colourful Halloween-themed wall decals and maybe even a small tabletop decoration like a mini pumpkin patch. Just remember to keep it fun and not too scary for the little ones!
