I’m absolutely batty for a good wreath – it magically transforms a home’s facade into a celebratory magnet. You just know there are going to be joyous festivities in a home with a wreath! Find the feathery one at Country Living and the on-trend chevron version’s how-to tutorial at Tatertots & Jello.

Next we just have to toot the talented horn of super-cute Melbournite Draw Pilgrim who has created this fabulous printable Halloween party pack! It’s $45 from Modern Printables.

Martha Stewart yet again provides endless tutorials on huge amounts of easy craft for Halloween and we came across the very fabulous Instructables with its own Halloween section too! There is seriously enough craft on these two sites combined to last you until the kids have grown up. We love the Halloween Hangups and Batty Moon.

Halloween doesn’t always have to be about kiddy craft – you can get in the act too, creating stylish Halloween decor! The above ideas are from the US Better Homes and Gardens, where there is a wealth of Halloween ideas for all. Also worth having a look at is the Free Halloween Printables and Projects section.

My two are too scared of ghosts to make this one but we imagine a lot of kids will relish helping with an outdoor life-size ghost sculpture. See the tutorial over at HGTV, make it and pop it on the verandah to scare the passers by.
