Scroll down (and keep scrolling). Our complete Halloween home style guide. This complete Halloween guide contains various indoor and outdoor style tips, DIY decor, and even our favorite spooky treats. It is the ultimate witches’ brew for celebrating Halloween in style.
What is the best place to begin?
Choose a color or theme before going to the store and buying Halloween decor. A common theme, like color accents or items, will elevate your home’s look. This is also an excellent way to save money on Halloween, as you will know what direction to go. You won’t waste money on things you don’t need, and you can create your own budget-friendly Halloween decorations.
There are many classic Halloween themes, including:
- Skeletons
- Bats
- Witches and broomsticks
- Pumpkins
- Ghosts
- zombies
- Graveyards
- Spiders and spiderwebs
- Black cats
- crows.
When it comes to modern Halloween decorating, you can do almost anything! Be free of these traditional themes.
Interior Halloween decor ideas
Let’s begin this Halloween home style guide with a theme! We have divided this guide between indoor and outdoor decorating ideas because we found so many. These are some of our favorite ways to bring Halloween into your home, from gallery walls to entryway styling, cushion styling, and more.
Entry Style
It is a great place to start decorating your house for Halloween.
Add some Halloween decorative pillows to a bench, or use the surface of a console to create an eerie vignette. A broom leaning against the wall can also be a subtle but effective Halloween touch. Add some spiderwebs to the wall.
Wall Gallery
