- Suggestions include paper garlands with bats or ghosts, hanging specters from tissue or cloth, and themed balloons with drawn faces.
- Jam or glass jars are turned into painted lanterns or candle holders, with LED candles recommended for safety.
- Cotton or old gauze is pulled into spiderwebs for doors, plants, or walls, with optional paper or button spiders.
- A curated “enchanted corner” is staged with old books, labeled potion jars, mirrors, dried branches, wilted flowers, and worn candles over a dark cloth.
