The Best Halloween Decor Ideas

September 13, 2019 By Ashley 16 Comments

Hey, hey, it's Friday the 13th and we are getting a full moon tonight. Don't stress superstitions, this is a reason to celebrate. It's the perfect day to decorate for Halloween. Bring on the black cats, flying bats, and awesome skeletons, I am so ready for the spookiest time of the year! And to get you started I have the best Halloween decor ideas for all your scary needs.

I'm partnering with Oriental Trading Company for this post. All opinions are my own. Affiliate links used. 

The Best Halloween Decor Ideas

Let's talk the outside first, this is where the magic needs to be on display the most right? You're showing your neighbors and haters who has the best house on the block. 

Every house needs at least one skeleton. This year though, hear me out, don't just get a regular human skeleton, spice it up with a DRAGON SKELETON. My buddy Drogon here (yeah totally named for my fave Game of Thrones dragon) is the highlight of my front yard. 

Dragon Skeleton

When kids walk up to our house, SURPRISE we have a dragon. Not to brag but I haven't seen any houses on our trick-or-treat route with a dragon skeleton. I say that means we are winning at this Halloween decor thing. You want a dragon now right? Of course you do,  Drogon here is one of the new skeletons from Oriental Trading.

Oriental Trading doesn't just have this awesome Dragon Skeleton, they also have mermaids, unicorns, and even two headed skeletons. If you are looking for something smaller, they have plenty of skeleton options to choose from. 

Psst- want to save up to 50% off select skeletons and get a free shipping code for your next order? Keep reading!

Taking you around the yard we've got these Silhouette Cat Yard Signs. These two remind me of my boys that live inside the house, although they are gingers. Every house needs a black cat or two.

To compliment Drogon we got a Light-Up Black Bat Wreath, Black Cauldrons, creepy cloth, and a Bat-Shaped Coir Mat. Bonus, the black cauldrons are a set of three. I used the larger two outside and the smaller one inside to hold treats for our trick-or-treaters.

The Spellbound Witchy Signs are also in a pack of 3. I used one outside and two inside. I might have to keep these up all year. It's totally fine to have Halloween decorations up 365 days right?

Inside the house, welcome guests with potions, cauldrons, and a few witchy signs. I am leaving the smaller cauldron on the table so that it is handy whenever someone rings the bell.

Here are the other two Spellbound Witchy Signs, the Toil & Trouble might be my favorite. I think I need another one to put in my kitchen.

To make the Black Lace Spiderweb Table Runner really jump out at you I layered it over some creepy cloth so no one missed the fact this table runner has some err friends on it.

Also on the table are fun Vintage Mercury Potion Bottles. These remind me of my favorite Halloween films like Hocus Pocus and The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Oriental Trading is not only a one-stop shop for Halloween decorations but you can also find costumes for the whole family. Descendants is a MEGA deal in our house, I know all the words to all the songs, go ahead and quiz me. 

Uma Halloween Costume

My daughter who so graciously offered to show off all the cool Halloween decorations we picked up asked me to pick out something special for her. Since she already has a Mal Costume we went with Isle of the Lost Uma this year. Now she is ready for trick-or-treating and Pirate Night on the Disney Cruise.

When is Halloween 2019?

Halloween 2019 is on a Thursday this year. That is 48 days away. You might think that is a ton of time but come on, we all know that will be here before we know it. And then it will be here and you'll be the only house on the block lacking the proper flair. I don't want to see that, so start shopping today!

    I’m always involved with our Trunk or Treat party at our church so I’m always looking for new ways to decorate. You have some great ideas here.

    I am not ready for Halloween just yet but these decorations seem like you are ready. That dragon skeleton is a good start and will surely scare a few kids.

    I need to get a few more decorations for Halloween. We have a few but I am ready to decorate for the season. I got a few things last year from Dollar Tree and didn’t see anything so far this year that I had to have. I’ll have to check out the selection on Oriental Trading. I love them but always forget about buying decor from them.

    Now that we moved into an apartment I’m not sure what the trick or treating etiquette is but Halloween has always been such a fun event I’m hoping to be able to do some of the same things.

    I’ve never thought about decorating for Halloween. I have always gone for a fall theme instead. I love all the options though for those who go all out.

We made it to Friday. And that deserves a treat. T We made it to Friday. And that deserves a treat. This Troll Kreme at the Norway pavilion would be perfect.  But alas I’m here and not there.

Bummed to be missing my favorite festival #artfule Bummed to be missing my favorite festival #artfulepcot this year. If you haven’t been and can go do it! It’s a magical experience to meet the artists and talk with them about their work. Plus you can get limited edition pieces signed and sometimes personalized!  I’m always looking for fun pieces to add to our collection. If you’re an artist or have some faves let me know! Who knows maybe I’ll slip away to visit or at least have a friend pick some pieces up for me!  #disneycreators #spaceshipearth #epcotball #experimentalprototypecommunityoftomorrow #disneyepcot #epcotcenter #DailyDisney  #Disneygrammer #DisneyParks #InstaDisney #DisneyAddict #DisneyDay #IGers_WDW #DisneyLove #Disneynerd #disneyobsessed #disneyaccount #disneylifestylers

“This is a new day. A new beginning.” - Ahsoka “This is a new day. A new beginning.” - Ahsoka Tano  2020 has been a year. And I won’t lie and say it’s been easy but we decided early on to try and find the positive. The light amidst  the darkness.  While I know that Jan 1st isn’t going to magically fix things, I do look forward to 2021 in hopes that everyone comes together, does what needs to be done, so that by the end of it we will have some semblance of balance in the force.  I don’t do New Years resolutions but I do plan on continuing to look for the light, be the good, and help others to as well. Just like my girl Ahsoka Tano. 🧡💙  #tanotuesday #ahsokatano #ahsokalives #heruniverse #batuuesday #starwarsgalaxysedge #disneydesignercollection  #ahsokaforever #starwarsgirls
