Halloween Wreath
Here’s an easy one to make with plastic skeleton hands! Just buy a few from the dollar store and glue them around a base. The base can even be chalkboard if you want to write spooky messages on the front door. Whatever you do, this is one of the easiest DIY Halloween decorations for outside.
Bat Branches!
This is another easy DIY Halloween craft if you’re handy with a glue gun. Simply gather a few sticks from out back, spray paint them black, and then hot glue little bat decorations to them!
There’s no wrong way to glue bats to twigs, and you can be sure to incorporate different heights and sizes. Place them all in a vase and you have yourself a nice DIY centerpiece for Halloween.

Batty Wall Art
Here’s another easy idea for DIY Halloween crafts. Just take black construction paper, fold it in half, cut half a bat shape into it, and do that about twenty to thirty more times. Tape to a wall and viola! Your very own colony of bats to make your home extra scary.
Wine Bottle Mummy
Perfect for Halloween party decoration ideas, just dress up the alcohol. All you need for this one are some googly eyes and gauze. Apply to a bottle of wine and you have a party decor item that is also a refreshment. This is especially fun for more adult themed parties.
