Halloween flowers and decorating on a budget

Halloween flowers and décor don’t need to break the bank. There are plenty of ways in which you can decorate your home on a tight budget. The key is knowing where and how to save a few bucks. Even a small saving here and there can add up.

Cheap pumpkins

If you are planning on using a pumpkin as a vase, you don’t need to buy the most expensive variety. Look for those that are cheapest since you won’t be eating them. If you are planning on painting the pumpkin, you can even choose those with defects. The paint will cover up any scratches and other damage.

Affordable flowers

Keep an eye on the flower market and look for discounted blooms. You don’t need to shop specifically for Halloween flowers. You can shop for any blooms you fancy and choose colours that suit the Halloween theme. Orange and off-white blooms, for example, are excellent. You can always add some black accents here and there if you like.

Get creative

When you are on a budget, you need to get creative and repurpose various items in your home. You can create your own spider webs, for example. Make sure that, no matter how cheap your decorations are, you should always pack them away safely so that they can be used again next year.

Finally, you should remember that you don’t have to go out for Halloween. You don’t even need to entertain guests. If you have children, they could invite a few friends over for a movie night. Alternatively, you can enjoy the evening as a family watching spooky movies. If you want to invite a few friends over, your Halloween flowers will make the perfect centrepiece.
