Last-minute Halloween decor: Turn your home spooky and cosy with jars, balloons and household supplies

Halloween is here, and a spooky room needs no big budget or weeks of planning. Find out how household supplies, craft items and lighting can create an eerie, cosy look.

New Delhi: Halloween falls on October 31, and a spooky room does not need a big budget or weeks of preparation. With basic household supplies and a few low-cost craft items, you can change the mood of a room in under an afternoon. The ideas below include soft lighting, aged textures and upcycled containers rather than store-bought plastic props. The trick to convincing Halloween styling lies in controlling light and silhouette.

Dim, diffused lighting paired with textured details gives a room an eerie but cosy feel, and it looks far more polished than a scattering of novelty items. The decoration ideas, including glowing lamps, tiny ghosts, painted flowers, jars and a slime pumpkin are simple enough to finish at the last minute. Pick the ideas below that suit your space and the supplies you have at home, and start decorating.
