DIY Halloween Decorations

Halloween is just around the corner and with the costumes and candy comes the creepy decorations too. This is one of my favorite holidays so I can't wait to get started decorating. Whether changing a few light bulbs around the house to orange or red, or doing some crafty paper cutouts of cats and bats, there are so many creative ways to bring the holiday to life in your home. Instead of going on a major shopping spree for all things Halloween, try to keep it simple and use materials you already have around your house. Sometimes the easier projects can be just as effective as expensive decor you would find in the store.  I found these great ideas online from Martha Stewart and others that show unique ways of using materials you may already have lying around.  Hope it sparks your imagination and gives you some inspiration!
