Idea One: Giant-size Skeleton

Go big or go home, right?! This 8ft. animated skeleton added instant impact because of its size and overall presence. Who wouldn’t want to come up on our porch to see more and get a feeling of Mr. Skeleton?!

Idea Two: Smaller, Posable Skeletons

I loved adding 3 smaller skeletons (36″) around the stairs and on our bench. The posable ones create an opportunity to get creative with them!

For example, I have one holding our candy bowl and the other two waving at people driving by or guests who are walking up to our porch!
Idea Three: Spider Web

Good ol’ fashion spider webs are perfect on the walls of your porch! They add that spooky backdrop to your other decorations.
You can also drape them above your doorframe!
Idea four: Halloween Pillows

I had a really hard time deciding which pillows to get at JOANN because they had so many amazing choices! I ended up going with the 18 x 18 skeletons pillow and 18 x 18 jack-o-lantern pillows. Aren’t they perfect?

Protip: When using Halloween decorative pillows, mix and match them with other pillows that have similar colors and patterns as I did here. You can also use solid color ones too!
Idea five: Ambient lighting

This idea is a big one for your porch! Turn off the overhead lighting, and use another lighting instead.

My lighting included 5o count orange colored string lights in bushes, battery-powered, flameless candles with timers, and stringing cafe lights on the ceiling. You can also replace your light bulbs with purple or orange ones!
Idea six: Stacked Pumpkins

I love adding height with topiaries on my porch, and JOANN had these two amazing options for Halloween!
First, the 38″ black grapevine stacked pumpkins look terrific on the stairs, and they come with lights that have timers. Second is the outdoor “candy corn” stacked pumpkins we’ve termed them. I love how great they look inside the black planters.
Idea seven: Halloween wreath
