We’re about a week away from the Halloween holiday. It’s time to get ready to pass out candy to your trick-or-treaters, or perhaps go to a Halloween party with friends or family. Something else you’ll want to do is get your yard decorated for the holiday. Since this is a holiday that focuses on being spooky, you want that spookiness to be reflected in your yard. One way to make your yard scarier is by adding spooky decorations to your fence. Let’s talk about ways you can decorate your fence in anticipation of Halloween.
Cobwebs
One way to make your fence more holiday-ready is to stick some cobwebs onto it. This is a quick and easy way to add to the spooky aesthetic of your yard. If you purchase decorative spider webs from the shop, pick ones that are safe for every surface. You want these webs to be safe for any kids who might reach out to touch them while they’re out trick-or-treating.
Black Cat Alert
There’s a superstition that black cats bring bad luck. Embrace this superstition by putting a warning on your fence, telling people that black cats are nearby. You could even get a fake black cat and place it onto your fence so that people who go to your house can experience the ominous feeling of bad luck in the air.
String Lights
Maybe you want to take a simpler approach to Halloween decorations. If this is the case for you, then you could consider getting string lights and attaching them to your fence. String lights not only look festive, but they may also be used a couple of months down the road once we get to the winter holidays. This makes string lights a multi-functional decoration option.
Signs
Signs are another simple way to celebrate Halloween. You could add a sign to your fence that has a spooky message on it. Tell people who go by your house messages such as: “You’re Being Watched!” or “Beware!” to keep them on their toes. Given that you could make your own sign, the sky’s the limit when it comes to what spooky messages you could write. Just keep them child-friendly since kids will likely be roaming the streets on Halloween night.
