I don’t go all out with the decorating for holidays, but I love an easy craft… and with just a couple days left until Halloween, most of these can be done with stuff you have around the house and plenty of time to spare!
I scoured my archives to round up some past Halloweeny crafts (so please forgive the photography), and it’s always fun to bring out the repeat favorites every year. Happy Halloween!

I found this idea in an old Mailbox magazine from my teaching days, and couldn’t resist a craft afternoon in San Fran. Every year, this is one of my most popular posts!

Toddlers will love the spray bottle of water, and you will love the no-mess window decorations!

Trick or Treat Cross Stitch Cube Finish
Ok, this certainly isn’t a two-day craft project, but I love bringing it out every year!
If you’re new to cross stitch and want a quick holiday project, A Little Boo by Lizzie Kate is super cute!
Here they are side by side!

Foam shapes + string + clothespins = a super easy and adorable photo display. I made this one for Amelia’s first birthday and hung wallet-size photos of her monthly pictures, but it would also be a cute way to display photos from past Halloweens!

Spiders, Skulls, and boo! Oh my… these posters made the cross-country move and I’ve found a place for them every year, no matter where we are! Super easy 30-minute project – all you need is poster board, needle, and thread.

Hexi Table Topper
Another project that might take more than a weekend to complete, depending on your sewing skills, but English Paper Piecing is a super easy hand sewing technique and great for keeping your hands busy while watching TV. Make a few in seasonal fabrics and you have a table topper to last all season!
I made this is 2012 and bring it out every single year!

Gotta love bunting! Halloween fabrics on one side, Thanksgiving on the other side… 2-in-1 lasts all season!

I don’t do anything fancy when it comes to baked goods, but these look pretty cute with no effort at all!

Patchwork Pumpkin Wall Hanging/Table Topper
One year it was a wall hanging, the next year a table runner in the dining room, this easy runner always brings some fun to the house. Lots of crazy novelty prints make up the patchwork pumpkin and string blocks.

If you need a super easy work-appropriate costume, look no further than Rosie the Riveter!
All you need: chambray shirt, red kerchief, & lipstick! And be prepared to show off your guns all day long, of course 🙂

If you’re a Game of Thrones fan, here’s a super easy peasy mother-daughter costume: put baby in a dragon onesie and buy a $7 t-shirt for yourself! I also found a long silver wig to wear while passing out candy on Halloween night, but for a super basic costume, just the t-shirt does the trick.

Cheers to a spooky Halloween!
Very pretty!
