Halloween is probably everyone’s favorite time of the year. You can dress up as spooky as you can, act completely crazy without any restrictions, and decorate your house in the creepiest way possible.
From the living room, bedroom, garden to the patio, the entire house needs to be bathed in the Halloween spirit. You can’t afford to miss any space, especially the kitchen. Decorating your kitchen for Halloween is a little difficult. You need to be very precise in choosing Halloween decorations because over-decoration can clutter up the cooking and dining area.
Here are few Halloween kitchen decor ideas for your convenience, that’ll help you spook up your kitchen, without messing it up.
Start by Decorating the Windows
Windows are the easiest and safest place to decorate without creating clutter in the available floor space. The most common way to decorate kitchen windows is with window silhouettes like pumpkin, spider webs, hats, skeletons, etc. You can also use real pumpkins and a creepy black cheesecloth to decorate your kitchen windows. Take up the window decor with lights, creepy posters and digital decorations.
If you are on the creative side, try to make origami Halloween lights and use them in combination with other decorations for a warm appeal. You can also DIY spider webs using black paper or plastic bag.
Simple decorations are cooler for a reason.
