Trick or Treat!
I have a guilty secret, I adore Halloween. Even before I had children I would decorate the house and garden and dress up for the trick or treaters! I have therefore created a spooky mood board of my favourite things to do at Halloween parties. If you are planning to get all spooky with your house here are a few tips:
- Create a graveyard in your front garden. Paint old bits of wood or cardboard and write RIP on them. Position in the garden and cover with spiders webbing and fake spiders.
- Line the graveyard with lanterns and lit pumpkins
- Create or buy silhouettes for the windows
- Use a wok as your cauldron and fill with sweets for the trick or treaters
- Use the webbing to drape on mirrors, picture frames, banisters – basically anywhere it can stretch and hang
Above all have fun this weekend.
