Getting crafty at Halloween is probably my favourite time of year to try some of those creative ideas you’ve had saved on your social media for forever! From plush pumpkins and goulish garlands, there’s so many different projects to try for all ages and abilities. We’ve put together some of our favourite ones, including some of our Influencer’s favourites too!

Our favourite arts and crafts are always the handprints based ideas because we just love how they can double up as such a beautiful and meaningful keepsake! They’re so easy, accessible and fun to create – check out our blog on Halloween handprint ideas and make sure to tag us in any of your recreations!

 

Pumpkin Garland

Get the whole family involved in decorating your haunted house this Halloween! Seasonal garlands are a great way to nod to the seasons and we absolutely love this simple pumpkin design idea for October. This method is also so easy to recreate throughout the year, swapping in different themes for holidays such as Christmas and Easter.

 

Halloween Trick or Treat bags

Trick or Treating is an absolute staple for families this time of year, so make sure you’re prepared with your very own hand-decorated bag! To make things even easier for you, we’re holding a trick or treat bag decorating event at the amazingly immersive  Booghe Toys store! To get involved from home, simply purchase or dig out a canvas bag and go to town decorating with your favourite Maped colouring felt pens. Our personal favourites for this time of year are of course our Monster colouring felt pens which work perfectly on canvas bags! For more information on the event, click here for our social post.
