I also repurposed wine bottles but in an entirely different way. Instead of making labels or using new ones I simply painted them with chalkboard paint. Now they are ready for anything you want to write on them.
Everyone has plastic juice bottles. Instead of throwing them out do like Debbie of Confessions of a Plate Addict and re-purpose them into these cute Country Living Inspired Jack O Lantern Candlesticks.
Here is a super thrifty idea from Chelsea of Making Manzanita. She took a few fence boards and turned them into these adorable Halloween Porch Decorations. I know I have a few of these boards somewhere and you do too!
Got a tin can lying around? Then you have an instant Jack O Lantern. Jane and Sonja of Sustain My Craft have come up with this nifty idea and there are also a whole bunch more on the site.
And even lovers can celebrate Halloween with this re-purposed clock into a ghost mirror spooky Halloween decor from Michelle of A Crafty Mix. How sweet is that couple?
Do you go all out for Halloween? My kids love to dress up and start planning weeks in advance for the big day!

Soooooo many ideas Mary. It’s just the inspiration I needed to finish off decorating for Halloween. Now I need to find the time ๐

Hi Mary, some of these Halloween ideas did make me smile and they seem so simple too. The collander pumpkin and shovel ghost are just the cutest, but my favourite idea has to be the lovers mirror. Love from beyond the grave and why not?

So many fun ideas for Halloween it’s hard to pick a favorite. Their all great! Thanks so much Mary for sharing my jack-o-lantern strainer. 😊
Brilliant, it just goes to show you don’t have to be buying new stuff all the time. Just a second look at something in the cupboard or attic can spark the imagination!
What a nice collection of ideas! I always love it when I can re-purpose things. I really like the cutting board idea…and I have one I can try it with. Thanks for sharing!
Great up cycled Halloween decor!
Happy Fall,
