Halloween is just around the corner!
I love the month of October. There’s always several family friendly activities to take advantage of during the month of October including fall festivals, corn mazes, pumpkin patches, hay rides, trunk-or-treating, trick-or-treating, haunted houses, and more.
My calendar stays pretty full during October, but I love this time of year and love participating in these fun activities with my family.
We are set our spooky decor in our entry way area of our home during the month of October.
To create our spooky decor, we used all of our items from Walmart and set them on our entry way table with a white background. The furry spider, small sparkly spiders, fake spider web, Halloween candy bowl, and the Hershey candy made this one spooky scene and will definitely spook a few of our guests!
The spider is hovering over the candy bowl to add a special effect as if he’s watching over his candy and doesn’t want anything or anybody to get it! I dare you to take a piece! 😉
With a focus on spiders this year, we made our own spiders, too.
These DIY Halloween Spiders are a great addition to your Halloween decor and they are fun and super easy to make. We purchased the items we needed for this craft at Walmart in the craft section.
*If you can’t find adhesive googly eyes, you can use regular googly eyes and attach them using a hot glue gun.
Step 1: Set your pipe cleaners on a clean area as pictured below. Using only one pipe cleaner to secure all pipe cleaners, you’ll need to bend the top pipe cleaner around completely one time. Do this for the other side of the same pipe cleaner. When you bend them around in a full circle around, it will secure all of the pipe cleaners together well.
Step 2: When all pipe are secured, pull 4 ends to one side and 4 ends to the other side to make the spiders legs.
Step 3: Bend each of the spiders legs in a zig zag pattern until all 8 legs are complete.
This is what your spider should look like once all legs are complete.
Step 4: Pick your spider up with your hand and bend his legs down so that they touch the surface. Add two adhesive eyes to the body (the middle) of the spider. Your completely spider should look something like this:
These DIY spiders around perfect to set around your home this Halloween season!
Don’t forget to have plenty of Hershey candy around, too! You can find an exclusive Halloween orange Reese’s featuring the message “Boo” at your local Walmart this year to add some extra fun to your Halloween decor and trick-or-treating experience!
Create this simple and spooky Construction Paper Ghost to display in your home or classroom this Halloween!
It’s almost Halloween, and that means it is time to start creating some spooky crafts for the little ones in your life.
This construction paper ghost craft is a simple and easy project that kids will love. In addition to being fun, this project also teaches your children about different colors of construction paper and how they can be used as well as what tools are needed to create a finished product.
Draw a ghost shape on the white construction paper with a pencil. (A pencil is best so that you can erase mistakes during the process.) The shape of the ghost can vary. The bottom of the ghost can be straight, wavy, or shaped like it’s flying. Feel free to get creative with this part if desired.
Cut out the ghost.
Glue the googly eyes onto the ghost face. Add the ‘eyebrows.’
Draw the mouth with a black marker. You can make the mouth an o shape, circle shape, or an oval shape.
Paint the paper plate orange. Set aside to dry. Once dry, apply another coat if desired. Set aside to dry completely.
Cut a brown stem out of the brown construction paper.
Cut a green leaf out of the green construction paper.
Turn the paper plate over to the back and glue the stem on. Allow to dry.
Turn the paper plate over to the front and glue the leaf next to the stem.
Cut the ribbon into a 4-6 inch piece.
Turn the paper plate to the back and glue the ribbon to the back. Once dry, you can use a strong piece of tape to make sure the ribbon stays secure on the paper plate. Use scissor technique to curl the ribbon.
