With Halloween quickly approaching, it may be time to start thinking about decorating your windows. The right steps can help to ensure that your windows look amazing during the Halloween season, which can attribute to the festive atmosphere. At Moyes Glass, we provide superior window services throughout the year to ensure that they always remain in the best possible condition. It is also extremely beneficial to thoroughly clean your windows prior to adding decorations. Here are a few of the best tips for decorating your windows for Halloween.
Black Cat Silhouette
You can make an array of great Halloween decorations with just the use of black construction paper. One great idea is to cut out a black cat silhouette and apply it to your window. The appearance of this will be improved when the window is illuminated by light from the home. This can go a long way toward providing a unique, beautiful Halloween appearance.
Specific Window Decals
There are various window decals that are designed specifically to decorate your windows. Using these decals can help you to decorate the window without the potential of causing damage. These decals can be applied simply with the use of water and the decal. If you don’t want to obtain these window decals, there are many other options for DIY Halloween decorations for your windows. It is also important to ensure that you only use the decals that are intended specifically for that use. When you use decals that weren’t intended for window decoration, they can be difficult to remove from your window, which can even result in additional damage.
Bats
Bats are another option that can be constructed out of black construction paper. This simple option can help to provide more thorough decoration, without seeming repetitive. Bats may even be easier to construct than a black cat, which can simplify your decorating process.
A Spooky Tree
The shape of a tree can also be created out of construction paper. This option is ideal for larger spaces, because you can construct a tree that will take up a substantial amount of space. Using bats flying around the tree can help to further take up space on the window, which can provide more thorough decoration for the property.
Spider Webs
There are many different ways that you can create spider webs for the window. These spider webs can provide a very Halloween-esque feel. You can purchase spider webs from a Halloween store, or you can construct your spider webs from other materials, such as cotton or even yarn. This can go a long way toward creating a haunted house effect for your building.
Ghost Figure
Ghostly figures can be created in an array of ways to decorate your windows. You can make them simply of construction paper or you can create a more involved, model of a ghost. For example, you can decorate some sheets, place them around a sports ball for the head of the ghost, and hang them in front of the window.
Orange Lights
Orange lights are a great idea to border your window during October. Not only can these lights improve the Halloween feel on their own, but they can also help to highlight cardboard silhouettes. This can go a long way toward improving the appearance of your specific decorations.
Caution Tape
Caution tape can easily change the environment of your building for Halloween. Hanging caution tape across windows or the doors of your property can help to change the overall atmosphere of your building. This caution tape can serve as a stand-alone decoration or can be used to improve the other decorations of your property.
Fake Spiders
Fake spiders are another popular option for decorating your windows. You can obtain these spiders from a Halloween store and can use them to decorate the window. This can be used just by itself or it can be used in conjunction with the spider web idea to provide a more cohesive appearance for the decoration of your window.
Blood Spatters
Blood spatters are a great decorating tool if you want to lean more on the macabre side of Halloween decoration. A method for this is to splatter red paint on wax paper. Wait for the paint to dry before you fix the wax paper to the window. You don’t want any of the paint to get on the window, because it can be incredibly difficult to remove. You may also be able to use fake blood to make handprints. Once again, however, you should be careful about the fake blood coming into contact with the glass of the window.
