The countdown to Halloween is on! And that means the only thing you should be doing in your spare time is working on all of the Halloween-themed crafts you saved on Pinterest over the last year.
And if your Pinterest boards happens to be lacking in the Halloween DIY department, don't worry! Just take inspiration from the collection of ideas I've put together below.
If you haven't tried crafting with alcohol ink yet, this is the perfect time to change that. This stuff can be used for a variety of projects, but using it to decorate pumpkins is one of my favorite ideas.
To see these inked beauties come together from start to finish, check out their easy-to-follow tutorial.
Amy over on Homey Oh My decided to use a paint splattering technique to decorate her batch of craft pumpkins, and I think they turned out great!
Seriously, don't hold back! Experiment with different paint colors, brush sizes, and splatter directions, just to see what happens.
How cute are these shoes?! Not only would they be fun to wear during the entire month of October, but if you have a Charlotte's Web fan in your home, they'd make a great costume accessory.
And you don't have to be a kid to rock a pair of these, either! Heck, I'm in my thirties and I'd wear shoes like this in a heartbeat.
Art that can be made in five minutes or less is a winner in my books! And that's exactly what Thistlewood Farms managed to pull off when they put together this fall-inspired idea.
Simply remove the back panel of your frame and place a single leaf on top of the first pane of glass. When the first pane you removed is replaced, you'll have yourself a pretty piece of art.
What's a Halloween party without festive accessories, like stir sticks for spooky cocktails?! Freutcake turned plastic dollar store skulls and cake pop sticks into just that using nothing more than some spray paint and hot glue.
I know if I were a guest at a Halloween party and I was handed a festive drink with one of these in it, I'd be thrilled!
Hamburgers and pumpkins may not sound like the best pairing in the world, but once you see what Lindsay of Shrimp Salad Circus managed to create by combining the two, it might become your new favorite combo.
She then cut a craft pumpkin in half and used it to sandwich all of her toppings together, creating an adorable front porch burger.
For those of you who came into this article looking for some upcycling inspiration, you're going to love this latest, Halloween-themed idea by Sadie Seasongoods.
Just when you thought there couldn't possibly be a good use for a tacky accessory like that!
Planning on being a witch or something else that requires the appearance of green skin? Dyed pantyhose is the answer! This DIY is especially helpful if you're struggling to find the perfect shade of green in a store.
You can also use Kool-Aid powder to dye pantyhose, but food coloring tends to result in more vibrant colors.
If you enjoyed the hamburger pumpkin idea from earlier, you'll probably like this second unique combo by Lindsay of Shrimp Salad Circus, too.
To create this effect, Lindsay used a product called vellum paper, which is readily available at most office supply stores.
If you're going to be hosting people for dinner at some point during the month of October, you should probably consider making place cards so everyone knows where you want them to sit.
And if you're not a fan of the color scheme they chose to work with, feel free to experiment with one of your own!
The thought of using ping-pong balls on a wreath has never crossed my mind, but I'm sure glad it did for Melissa of No. 2 Pencil.
Who wouldn't want one of these hanging from their front door this time of year?!
Last, but certainly not least, Magia Mia put together an amazing tutorial that outlines how to turn empty containers into Tim Burton-esque potion bottles. And the best part about this idea is that it doesn't require any fancy tools or materials.
For the toppers, outdoor materials like bark and oak galls filled with plaster were used to complete the haunting appearance of the bottles.
