“Wicked” Halloween Decor Inspiration – My Home

I finally got all my Halloween decor up and can’t wait to share it!!

This is a pretty exciting year for me. I have my blog up so not only do I get to share with my friends, I get to share with you guys as well!

One of the main things I’m all about with my decorating is, decorating on a budget. You’ll notice that I make most of my decorations and have even got some from the Dollar Tree.

Decorating on a budget is my motto!!

…not only do I get to share with my friends, I get to share with you guys…

This is my second home decor post I’ve done. My first one was my Summer Beach decor inspiration.

I decorate three areas of the house, my front entrance, china cabinet and entertainment center. I add a few things here and there throughout my house, but these are the main spots.

Front Entrance Wall

With this area, I really wanted the focus to be “Wicked” inspired (starting with my Wicked wall frame). I’ve read the books and this year my husband took me to see the musical!

After that, I knew I wanted to do an area in the house based on it. Halloween is perfect for that! I don’t know if I’ll want to take it down :)

And here's how it was decorated for Halloween last year.

I made the witch and monkeys myself using various types of cardstock and my Silhouette Cameo.

I was so lucky. On a trip to Michaels I found all these frames on clearance for $2.00 each!! I think I bought 10 different styles.

I really like the washi tape frame I made. I think it brings some nice patterns to the display.

These thumbtack pumpkins I made were a perfect addition.

I found this Wicked printable online. I was debating on making something myself, but ran out of time.

I covered the shoes with spray on glue. Then added my red glitter. My perfect "ruby slippers."

I added a couple other items I made myself (like the washi tape frame and thumbtack pumpkins). I really think it finishes the area off. I love that pumpkin with the witch’s hat!

China Cabinet

My china cabinet is one of my favorite places to decorate. I have that BIG space on top and all the shelves inside. I can get real creative with this area!

I found the "BOO" at Homegoods for $15. I usually make my letters, but you can't beat that deal!

This skull was purchased at Michaels. I get so many of my accent pieces there. Most of the time they're already 40% off!

These cake dishes are a staple to my china cabinet. I just change the ribbon out for each holiday and get a new look. The rats and spider I picked up at the Dollar Tree.

I was able to make these potion bottles pretty easily. I just think they are so cute and look great in the china cabinet.

I added some black beans to finish off this candle vase. A very spooky touch!

I just love, Love, LOVE...these golden pumpkins I got at Michaels. I grabbed a couple of them to put throughout my home.

I made the Halloween banner using cup cake wrappers, cardstock and my Silhouette Cameo.

These are serving trays I made last year for my entrance wall Halloween display.

I became obsessed with making these Mod Podge pumpkins. I had to add some polka dot ones this year to my collection.

One my very favorite Mod Podge pumpkins!!

Here's a "spooky" thumbtack jack-o-lantern I made with thumbtacks.

I had these bats up last year. I got the idea from Nap Time Decorator. She has A LOT of great ideas for decorating your house on a budget!

I was able to use a lot of stuff I made last year (like my Mod Podge pumpkins, thumbtack pumpkins and potion bottles). I was even able to reuse those Halloween serving trays I made from last years entrance wall display!!

Entertainment Center

I love decorating over our entertainment center. That’s where we sit, watch movies and relax as a family. It’s really nice to look up there and see all my Halloween decorations.

I love the pallet I added. It worked out great for my beach theme decor, and it works PERFECT for Halloween. Gives it a “spooky” look!

Plus, the silhouette frames I made last year are a nice touch :)

This year I wanted to try making some wreaths. I made this one using all ribbon!

This wreath I used burlap and added some polka dots using paints and a round form brush. I made the banner using my Silhouette.

For my pumpkins, I used my hole punch and vinyl. I wanted to be able to take them off after Halloween.

The silhouette frames are from last year. I just added some new colorful scrapbook paper to some. I also added another one of the thumbtack pumpkins I made.

I found the owl silhouette at Micheals during the summer. I've been saving it to use for Halloween. I covered it with some sparkly washi tape!

This is another shape I covered with washi tape and cut out the date with my silhouette!

This Halloween was a lot of fun to decorate for! I used a lot of my signature polka dots.

I hope I’ve given everyone a lot of great ideas and inspiration. And…to show that you don’t have to spend a lot of money to decorate for the season.
