Sophisticated Halloween Decor
Have you seen all the Halloween decorations and outfits in stores this week? Even though we’re not in September yet, there’s no better time than now to start getting organized for Halloween! We have some Halloween and Fall decorations that we rotate each year, but we also add some new gems too!
In this Shop the Look feature, I’m going to share my top tips and ideas on creating a Sophisticated Halloween Decor setup and talk through the key elements to include!
How to Recognize Sophisticated Halloween Decor
Creating a “Spookily Chic” look at home is relatively straightforward when you master the basics. Sophisticated Halloween decor focuses on using spooky versions of decor you already have. For example, swap out your ceramic vase for a skull version and use dark-toned faux florals and foliage. You can also use black sculptures and decorations, ceramic and knitted pumpkins, and lots of candles!
Sophisticated Halloween decor isn’t your typical assortment of decorations. Instead, think about your decorative areas individually, and how you would normally. The only difference here is to include Halloween-themed and colored items. Burnt orange, gold, and black is great.
You can also look at swapping out decorative pillows and throws for more on theme colors.
Halloween Fun Facts:
Halloween is an extremely popular Holiday that nearly all of us celebrate! But did you know that the tradition originates from the Celtic festival know as Samhain? People would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts.
Since then, Halloween has evolved from a ritual-based festival to a day of celebrating! Many people host parties, wear costumes, make jack-o-lanterns, and even go trick-or-treating.
