Easy Last Minute Halloween DIYS




Last year I made a cute last minute ghost candy basket that got a lot of compliments, and held a lot of candy.  This year I updated DIY to incorporate the pink Halloween trend. 





This ghost lantern is very easy to make. I used a Dollar Tree lantern and a package of their flexible cutting boards. I cut the cutting boards to fit the lantern and added a the face and ribbon.  It's perfect for our purple Halloween theme I am doing this year. 





This year there has been a viral trend using spackle on a canvas in the shape of ghost. They are really easy to make, and can be adapted to whatever colors you want. I shared how I made these on both Instagram and TIK TOK.  My grand baby loves the bright ghosts.  :) 
 


Another trend that has been going on the last few years is making a ghost painting.  People have been buying painting and then adding spooky scenes.  I like to do this trend on a budget.  I buy my canvases at the Dollar Tree. I made these two for my bathroom.  They make me smile every time I see them.  I also made a few other canvases his year which you can see here, and here.



Since I am doing a purple non scary Halloween for my grand baby, I wanted to make a cute ghost sign.  I found the large ghost and ghost ornaments at the Dollar Tree.  This is mama ghost and all her ghost babies who represent someone in our family. The purple bows make the ghosts more cute than scary. 





I love the bleach your own T shirts trend. This year I made this cute skeleton shirt.  



My main display on our front porch is my giant purple ghost that made from covering one of our porch leaners. You can see how I made it on Instagram and TIK TOK. I may add a few more Halloween DIYs this season, but I am also starting to think ahead to Christmas.
