Green Your Halloween: Decorations
Not that long ago, Halloween decorations consisted of a couple of pumpkins on the front porch and old clothes fashioned into a stuffed scarecrow in the yard. But today, Halloween has begun to rival Christmas with the amount of planning, preparation, and purchasing that goes into the holiday decorations. Don’t be frightened….there are plenty of ways to decorate for a Green Halloween that won’t spook the planet. Check out these ideas for Green Halloween decorations…
- Seek Out The Spooky…Reuse and recycle stuff around your house to use as Halloween decorations. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect. Halloween as all about the eerie, the gross, and the creepy, so it will look even better if it’s dirty or falling apart.
- Get Thrifty: Hit your local thrift store for awesome decorations that won’t cost a fortune.
- Reuse decorations from year to year…don’t just throw them away…that’s SCARY!!
- Go Au Naturale: Skip the inflatable and light-up decor that wastes both money and resources. Instead, opt for natural decorations like pumpkins, corn stalks, mums, and straw bales.
Add a little spookiness to your front yard with stuff that’s already laying around your house. Check out these ideas for transforming everyday items into frightfully fun decorations:
Cardboard Box
- Coffin: Paint it black, stuff a shirt with newspaper and hang it from the side
- Tombstone: Paint it gray and add a funny epithet
- Skeleton: Paint it white and cut out a skeleton design
Recycled Newspaper/Paper
- Witch’s Hat: Paint it black and fold into a pointy witch’s hat.
- “Chain”: Cut out strips of paper into chains that you can use to decorate inside or out

More Ideas
- Stuff old clothes with newspaper to form a scarecrow for your front porch. Add a hat and some funky shoes.
- Use old stockings or the netting from a bag of oranges to make spiderwebs.
- Turn an old sheet or pillowcase into a ghastly ghost. Use a small amount of crumpled newspaper to stuff the “head.” Tie off the head with a string and add a spooky face with markers. Hang your ghost in a nearby tree and let him blow in the wind.
