Halloween is always at the top of the list of favorite holidays for my son. Mostly because of the candy, but he loves the creepy Halloween decor, too! Of course I want to indulge him, but it can definitely get expensive if you’re buying ready made stuff from those pop up Halloween stores. The solution? DIY it, baby. I’ve found 20 Easy DIY Halloween Decorations to deck your spooky halls!
