Why do we celebrate Halloween?

Halloween is a Celtic holiday that takes place on the evening of October 31st, because it is the night of the god of death. Legend has it that ghosts came to haunt the living during this time and that night, people dressed in scary outfits gathered to celebrate. This holiday became popular in the United States and was then exported all over the world, although it is not celebrated in the same way everywhere. Today, children dress up and knock on neighbors’ doors to ask for candy. Additionally, adults get dressed and spend the evening. Therefore, it is fashionable to decorate your house according to Halloween codes.

Halloween color palette for adults and children!

Autumnal tones of orange and black, carved pumpkins can be common. If, however, you want to opt for fun to unite your children, hanging skeletons and ghosts, cobwebs and candles are the essential elements of your Halloween decoration. We find them both in interior decorations and in the garden.

Go do it yourself! Decorating your home will become a fun family activity. Even though Halloween is less popular in France than in Anglo-Saxon countries, children love it. You can complete your decoration with jars, garlands, balloons that you can make, paint and decorate yourself. Arm yourself with paint, brushes, stickers, markers, tape and string and have fun personalizing everything together with your children.

Consider everything, Orange Vitamin. The appearance will be more varnished than the photo.

How to make Halloween decorations?

Glass jars with pumpkin, ghost or mummy

Keep the jars empty and paint them orange or white. Draw eyes, nose and mouth in black using spray paint to make them look like a ghost or pumpkin. Place a candle inside to turn them into Halloween candle holders. You can also surround them with white ribbon and glue two eyes, for example using a glue gun, to turn them into mummies.

If you want to be discreet, play with the color code, orange, black and white with a touch of copper… Why not play with the material with our whites from the matte powder range?

For the more traditional, customize your pumpkin! Once each family member has their own pumpkin, hollow it out and have fun carving your own, to your liking, with eyes and mouth before placing a candle inside.

Chic and refined decoration ideas for Halloween

Scary ghost balloons

Buy neon balloons and bracelets. Break off a bracelet, insert it into a balloon, inflate the balloon and draw eyes and mouth with a black marker. You can also use our paint with a phosphorescent effect to emphasize the supernatural part of your decoration.

You can place a white sheet over a balloon, draw eyes and a mouth on it, and hang it from the ceiling to create a balloon ghost.

A personalized bat light string

String the light garland that you regularly put up at Christmas, cut out the bats from black paper and hang them on the garland using the light bulbs to make the eyes. You can also glue paper bats to the inside of lampshades. Guaranteed effect!

Candles for a haunted atmosphere

You can give your interior the look of a haunted castle with old rusty candlesticks or painted with a rust or copper effect paint in which you place white candles. Take your time lighting them and tilting them to cover them with wax drips. This will make them look authentic and old. To create the impression of a bloody decoration, pour red wax onto white candles.

If you don’t have old candlesticks, glass bottles covered with wax castings will replace them perfectly and become original candlesticks.

If you want a more chic and temporary look, play with color again with black candlesticks and orange candles. This will be enough to wink.

Damn autumn bouquets

Yellow, orange and brown dead leaves, dead wood and thistles will allow you to create a perfect Halloween bouquet, in autumn colours. You can paint the wooden branches black to accentuate the cursed forest look.

You can place several wooden brooms in front of your front door, giving the impression that it is a witch’s garage. Otherwise you can frame it with large branches of dead wood painted black. The tone is already set before you even enter the house!

Make some scary treats

To make sure you make a good impression and make your Halloween party a success, think about the culinary aspect, the delicacies and the cooking. During the day, when you have children dressed as vampires, witches or werewolves and who ring the doorbell asking for sweets, prepare some lollipops covered with a napkin that will look like cute ghosts and distribute them to everyone. Think of pumpkin-shaped cakes, very easy to make with royal icing and suitable for both adults and children!

Then, in the evening, when you are with your friends, prepare the cocktail of your choice in a salad bowl. Fill a glove with water and place it in the freezer. You can keep the cocktail cold with a hand-shaped ice cube, guaranteed horror movie effect!
