If you want to keep things simple, yet festive, adding a few

Halloween-themed pillows and a rug to your living room or entryway is the perfect way to do that.

I found the cutest “Boo!” pillow and a black and white spider web pillow to add to my living room.

I also found the cutest spider web rug to add to my entryway and I think it looks so good with my black and white buffalo check rug!

Your front porch is the first thing trick-or-treaters will see, so you want to make sure it looks good.

If you don’t have a lot of space to work with, try a simple vignette with a few pumpkins, some pampas grass and a spooky sign.

You can also add some faux spider webs to your front door, and don’t forget to swap out your doormat for something more festive.

3. Add a Skeleton to Your Home

Skeletons are a must when it comes to Halloween decor! They can be used in so many different ways and they are just so fun.

You can have a skeleton theme going on in your home, or just add one to a room.

I decided to add one to my bar cart and I love how it turned out. This one is playing the piano and I love that it’s a little hint of Halloween decor.

I like to keep my Halloween decor more on the simple side and not too spooky.

4. Use Black as a Halloween Decor Color

Black is a classic Halloween color and a great way to add a spooky touch to any room in your home.

I love using black candles, candlesticks, and candelabras to create a moody look for Halloween.

This year, I found a set of black candlesticks and a black candelabra that I used in my living room.

I love how they look on the mantel, and they add a spooky touch to the room.

I also added some black candles to the mantel to create a cohesive look.

I love how the black accents pop against the white walls and the light wood mantel.

5. Add Witch-themed Decor

Witches are another popular Halloween icon, and there are so many ways to incorporate them into your decor.

This table setting includes a witch hat as a centerpiece, and a witch broom on the wall.

The witch hat is a fun and unexpected item to use as a centerpiece, and it’s so easy to create!

Just put some floral foam in the hat to hold the flowers, and you’re good to go.

I also love the witch broom as a wall decoration. You could also use a broom as a table centerpiece or in a vase.

6. Create a Halloween Mantel

I love to decorate my mantel for the seasons, and Halloween is no exception!

This is where I really let my creativity shine and create a fun scene with a variety of Halloween decor.

I typically start with a large focal point piece, and build the rest of the mantel decor around it.

My favorite focal point pieces are large signs, like this “Boo” sign, or a large piece of art.

I also like to incorporate garlands and wreaths into my mantel decor to help fill in the space.

The Halloween garland on my mantel is a fun mix of colors and adds a playful touch to the decor.

I always make sure to add a variety of shapes and sizes to my mantel decor.

I like to layer pieces in front of and behind each other to create a lot of visual interest.

I also like to balance the decor on each side of the mantel, so it feels cohesive and not too cluttered.

7. Decorate Your Front Porch for Halloween

I love this simple Halloween front porch from The Crafted Sparrow.

She added a simple “BOO” sign to her door, and then decorated with pumpkins, mums, and fall leaves. This would be so easy to recreate at home!

8. Use Pumpkins to Decorate for Halloween
