Christmas and Halloween decorations are use to decorate our yards and homes for these particular Holidays. Halloween decorations consist of Scarecrows, Ghosts and Pumpkins. Christmas decorations consist of Nativity Scenes, Trees and Santas.
Several magazines provide spreads of Christmas decorations during Halloween. You can check out the new HGTV magazine, Oriental Trading, or Better Homes and Gardens.
Yes you can make enough handmade Halloween decorations for two homes. Martha Stewart and allcrafts.net, both have ideas that would work. You could even get your children involved to help out.
The Halloween season is a time to have fun! One way of having fun during this season is to decorate the home for the occasion! Many people enjoy decorating the inside and outside of their homes with different Halloween decorations. This shows the household and the neighborhood that they are ready for the spooky but fun season of Halloween! Halloween decorations come in different types to appeal to different people. Those who love a good fright can use scary decorations. The decorations will include scary monsters or serial killers, blood and gore and animated monsters! Funny or friendly decorations are ideal for those who have children in the family or do not like to get scared. This will include silly looking monsters, friendly pumpkins, and funny monsters or animals who play Halloween music and dance to it. The different types of decorations will make it easy for customers to find something that best suits their taste and household. There are many types of decorations to use on the inside and outside of the home. The indoor decorations can include window clings that look like bloody hands, hanging swirl decorations that include friendly looking pumpkins and bats and pumpkin table decorating kits. The outdoor decorations can include skeleton lawn flamingos, inflatable pumpkins and monsters and tombstones to set on the lawn. The decorations and prices vary per store, but there is a wide selection between the many retail stores and shopping websites. By shopping for the decorations online, customers can avoid the long lines and crowds that come from other Halloween shoppers in retail stores. They can shop online and have the decorations delivered right to their home! Halloween decorations can be used during the season for many reasons. If someone is throwing a Halloween party, they can make the house look more festive for the event. Some people may be decorating specifically for the trick-or-treaters that will be coming around on Halloween night. There are many people who do not have a specific reason for decorating, they just want to celebrate the Halloween season! Decorating the home for the season is a great way to get into the Halloween spirit!
I like to use the Better Homes and Gardens website for my decorating ideas ( http://www.bhg.com/halloween/outdoor-decorations/ ). The great thing about this website is that it doesn't just give you Halloween ideas, but it has ideas for every holiday!
Halloween has been a big night for kids to trick or treat for many years, so in that respect, it is not necessarily growing. In recent years, more people have decorated their homes with lights and Halloween decorations, so that seems to be growing in popularity.
Martha Stewart (http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/halloween-decorating) has a plethora of tips and tricks for Hallowe'en decorating. Better Homes & Gardens also has a large selection of ideas, though they focus more on outdoor decor (www.bhg.com/halloween/outdoor-decorations/).
Some people tend to go with a theme when they decorate their homes for halloween. Like if you wanted to go with a witches den theme, you might pick up a spooky cauldron and work the rest of your decorations around that.
Look on Martha Stewart, Southern Living and HGTV websites for lots of ideas for Christmas decorations. You can also try the Amazing Christmas Ideas website. If you just want to purchase the decorations, try a Christmas shop, since they may carry unique decorations.
If you are looking to create you own Halloween decor I highly recommend looking at magazine websites for ideas such as Martha Stewart, Country Living, or Better Homes and Gardens. Some good Halloween decor for you might be tombstones, Jack O' Lanterns, pumpkins, witches, ghouls and ghosts, or life size Frankenstein dummies.
If one is seeking a specific place that decorates for Halloween, one simply needs to look at surrounding homes and neighbourhoods. Many people decorate their homes for Halloween.
Homeowners Associations support their communities and set up rules for the neighborhood such as what colors the homes may be and how much decorations are allowed on front lawns to keep their neighborhood looking nice.
