Spook-tacular Halloween Décor!


Time to get those creative juices flowing and channel your inner ghouls and goblins! Here are a few of our favorite Halloween décor ideas from around the web. Which one is your favorite?

Pumpkin Costumes- Who says humans get to have all the Halloween fun? Use costumes from last year to dress up this year’s jack-o-lanterns for a display that is equal parts cute and creepy! (Source: Good Housekeeping)


Haunted Mansion Window- For an ultra-creepy chic vibe, dress up your front window with faux cobwebs and bats backlit by a haunting, flickering candelabra. You can almost HEAR the monster movie music! (Source: Good Housekeeping)


Boo-Quet of Ghosts- All you need is tissue-paper bells (check out the wedding section of the party store), cheesecloth and construction paper to make the cutest little set of spooky ghosts you’ve ever seen! (Source: Country Living)


Instant Creep Factor- Need a quick way to make your house look haunted? Drape your furniture in white sheets to give off that condemned-house vibe, then stretch some faux cobwebs across mirrors and corners of windows. Yikes! (Source: Country Living)


Jeepers Peepers!- This one is almost TOO easy. Save a bunch of paper towel and toilet paper rolls throughout the year, and then cut eye shapes into them. Place a dollar-store glow stick in each cardboard roll and put them randomly in your bushes outside. Passers-by will see nothing but menacing, glowing eyes staring back at them!

1 container (8 oz) reduced-fat chives-and-onion cream cheese

½ cup milk
1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
12 oz. blue tortilla chips (from two 9-oz bags)

In 1 ½ qt. microwaveable bowl, mix all ingredients except tortilla chips. Microwave uncovered on High 5 to 8 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes, until cheese is melted and dip is smooth.
Serve warm with tortilla chips.
