Simple Outdoor Decorating Ideas For Halloween

Set a spooky scene on Halloween with the simple outdoor decorating ideas presented in this Better Homes and Gardens video:

You can find materials for these decorating projects at your local craft store:

• Draw the eye of your visitors up by hanging crows in trees. The swings are made from plain dowel rods and chain links.
• Give trick-or-treaters a real scare by placing plastic skeletons in your bushes. If you place them at the eye level of kids, they have a more ghastly effect.
• Give a bench a frightful look by perching blackbirds on the top. Secure them to the bench with the base of large binder clips.
• Trace little hands and feet on black vinyl and stick them to the front of your windows or garage. Turn on the lights inside to cast a golden glow in the evening.
• Place rubber rats along the gutters for an unexpected and frightful touch.

By following these simple tricks, you’re sure to be in for a Halloween treat!
