5 Spooky & Fun Art and Craft Activities to Do This Halloween

Hey crafty friends! 🎃 Halloween is just around the corner, and you know what that means—time to get those creative juices flowing with some spooky-fun art and craft activities! Whether you're a resin artist, glitter enthusiast, or just love getting your hands messy with DIY projects, I’ve got five Halloween craft ideas that are not only super fun but easy to pull off. Let’s make this spooky season extra special with these craft ideas! 👻

1. DIY Resin Ghost Coasters

Resin projects are my absolute favorite, so I had to kick this off with a resin craft! Ghost coasters are perfect for adding a little spooky flair to your table. All you need are some ghost-shaped molds, resin, and, of course, some glitter. Pour your resin, add a sprinkle of black or glow-in-the-dark glitter, and let it cure. The end result? Eerie ghost coasters that will have your guests spooked (in the best way). 👻✨

Tip: Use glow-in-the-dark pigment to give your coasters a spooky glow at night!

2. Glitter Pumpkin Decor

Forget the messy carving and opt for a glam pumpkin this year. 🎃 Simply grab some mini pumpkins and your favorite glitters. Paint your pumpkin with a layer of glue and generously sprinkle glitter all over it. I personally love using a mix of orange, black, and purple glitter for that classic Halloween vibe. They make for stunning centerpieces or porch decorations!

Pro tip: Seal your glitter with a layer of clear spray to keep the sparkle in place.

3. Halloween-Themed Stickers and Decals

If you love customizing everything, Halloween-themed stickers are perfect! I recently did an unboxing from Sticker Mule, and their high-quality stickers make this craft a breeze. Create your own spooky designs—think bats, witches, black cats, and cauldrons—or order some custom stickers to decorate your notebooks, water bottles, or even gift bags for trick-or-treaters.

4. Creepy Crawly Spider Wreath

Want to welcome your guests in creepy-cute style? Try making a spider wreath! Start with a foam wreath base and wrap it in black fabric or ribbon. Then, attach faux spiders (the bigger, the better!) with hot glue. For a little extra flair, add a few dangling spiders with fishing line, and don’t forget a touch of glitter on the spiders’ backs for some extra sparkle.

Hack: Spray-paint plastic spiders silver or gold for a chic Halloween look.

5. Glow-in-the-Dark Slime

This one’s perfect for kids (or your inner kid!). Slime is so much fun to make and a hit at Halloween parties. You can make it extra spooky by adding googly eyes, mini plastic bats, or glow-in-the-dark glitter. All you need is glue, baking soda, contact lens solution, and a bit of glow-in-the-dark paint or glitter to give it that eerie glow. Mix it all up and watch the slime come alive in the dark!
