Are you searching for some more inventive floral designs to decorate for your ghoulishly good Halloween get-together? Here are a few easy do-it-yourself flower decoration ideas that you can create to add seasonal spookiness to your Halloween party. With just a few household items and some florals from a local flower shop in Bronx, you will be able to transform ordinary blooms into ghosts, spiders, and other creepy creatures. Your guests are sure to be impressed and amused by the hauntingly festive floral touches sprinkled throughout your celebration.
Glowy Ghost Marigolds
Marigold flowers are bright and cheery, but you can transform them into glowing ghosts for Halloween! You will need: marigold flowers, white paint, small googly eyes, glue, and glow sticks from your local Bronx florist.
Start by removing any leaves from the bottom stems of the marigold flowers. Then, paint the entire flower head white using a paintbrush. Let the paint dry completely. Once dry, use a dot of glue to attach two small googly eyes near the top of each flower head. These will serve as ghost’s eyes. Next, carefully cut a glow stick just below the glowing portion so that the sticks are about the same length as your flower stems. Secure the bottom end of each glow stick to a flower stem using glue, tape, or a twist tie. When night falls, simply snap the glow sticks to light them up and your ghostly marigolds will glow! Place these Halloween flower arrangements around your party for a spooky glow.
Creepy Cobweb Cupcakes
Turn your Halloween cupcakes into a spooky spiderweb display! You will need: cupcakes, frosting, black food coloring, a piping bag, or a resealable plastic bag.
First, use black food coloring to dye your frosting black. Transfer the black frosting to a piping bag fitted with a small round tip. Carefully pipe a spiral pattern across each cupcake starting from the outer edge and working inward to create a cobweb effect. Pipe additional crisscrossing lines across the webs for texture. To finish, add a small chocolate chip or candy in the center of each web for the spider. Place the spooky cupcakes on a tray or stand them upright on a plate for an eye-catching Halloween treat that guests will love!
Witch Hat Water Bottles
Spruce up plain water bottles with festive witch hats! You will need: water bottles, black construction paper, scissors, glue, and googly eyes.
To get started cut out triangle shapes from black construction paper large enough to wrap around each bottle. Glue the triangles around the bottles so that the point rests at the top, creating a witch hat shape. Allow the glue to fully dry. Once dry, use small dots of glue to attach googly eyes just below the pointed tip of each hat. The witches’ hats will allow party guests to stay hydrated in Halloween style!
Flower Pot Ghost Centerpieces
Transform empty terracotta flower pots into grinning ghost centerpieces. You will need: terracotta flower pots, acrylic paint, small googly eyes, and glue.
First, paint the entire outside surface of each flower pot white using acrylic paint. Allow it to dry completely. Once dry, use a small dot of glue to carefully attach two googly eyes near the top center of each pot to create a ghostly face. The pots can then be filled with candy-like chocolate coins or popcorn balls for extra spooky appeal. Place several ghost centerpieces around your party area for creepy gathering décor. Guests are sure to get a fright and a treat!
Spider Lily Bouquet
Create a spiderweb-draped Halloween flower bouquet using calla lilies. You will need: calla lilies, thin craft wire or string, black woven rope, or yarn.
First, tie or wrap the craft wire tightly around the bottom of each calla lily flower head, ensuring the wire completely encircles the flower head and stem about an inch below. Spider lilies are readily available via Halloween flower delivery in Bronx during that time. Then, cut multiple lengths of black woven rope or yarn, each about 18 inches long. Knot one end of each rope/yarn piece to the calla lily flower head wire above. Drape and crisscross the black ropes around and between each lily head and stems to resemble a messy spiderweb. Trim any excess rope. Cluster several spiderweb-draped calla lilies together in a vase or bucket filled with decorative rocks to create an eye-catching spooky spider lily bouquet centerpiece for your Halloween party table. Be sure to place the bouquets where unsuspecting guests may walk by for an extra fright!
