To make, use spray adhesive to attach the papers; (spray the back of the paper, not the glass, to avoid streaks). Place sand and tapered candles inside the vase for a haunting glow.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b> Use clear plastic blocks in lieu of glass vases. Be sure to nix the candles or opt for battery-powered versions.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3VYOesmVMCL_fvqRC3Ndg0f5Ooapedj9jf8sGAqZaJbmL8X6uj6YtYSaI-HJyy3za2WoX7-LNLi5N1rKr8wL_bLkhPAh1r5laLdoX0Fkhr-K4fE0FtzYnhP3_bysqUkkoUhyphenhyphen1xIKw/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Black and Orange Halloween Candles</span> </b></span></div><br />Wrap decorative scrapbook paper around large orange and black candles to create this simple Halloween centerpiece. An orange table runner makes the black candle pop, overturned black bowls add height to the decoration, and black spiders and white Halloween candies add creepy-crawly fun at the base.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b> Be sure to keep an eye on how fast your candles burn, and trim scrapbook paper accordingly.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqNPfW80WCau4olKFSLwliagK6ni2xhdAA5OgV6NOTGmd2B8WZHYyfJnhoJuwLMtL13cnWFUE3-T6lKG3hu-Fh1Of4c_WQ0aqG9Qk_UfMMIpBsAqFNngZNl4F-Kt0UuPkHSmLLjVcx/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Raven Urn Centerpiece</span> </b></span></div><br />You need only a few household items and a little nature to create this haunting-yet-simple Halloween centerpiece. Gather knotted, rustic sticks from your yard or neighborhood to place in a basic urn, and add bits of moss to get the fright just right. Use free clip art to trace and cut out ominous black ravens from construction paper -- the finishing touch for this Halloween centerpiece.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdy5mawAH56XlDI-jbXX14q67-XL2mMjojyEoo4g_FAqZiwXo-a3FPuhWLfdD-bzq9_UGm7sWKist0vjIHO96HABhQvW4hmlDTHd9wvSECDDOZEQavI3El9pCyGFRBcV5l8ooJSCen/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Candleholder Goblets Display</span> </b></span></div><br />Thrift-store glasses become centerpiece-ready with a coat of black spray paint. Choose textural goblets for the most detail, set them upside down to spray-paint, and tape a few to preserve the tops. Touch up any edges with a black permanent marker after the goblets dry. Note that after decorating the goblets they are meant for display only.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tips:</b><br />Use sand to raise your votives to desired height.<br />Place the goblets on a black tray or a mirror embellished with spray paint to make the centerpiece both cohesive and portable.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho-mRtnwVSIOwtD8PaBL7LHJYdYyfe1coOgl4rwXphpn1MPmKp2ghAqSRUeO2zjcfvUPmJ9RR2hH4lsQDF2CRSvS6I_auA21kh3fG5CwiLafr1VFikQ_VF6EbYU1nZWkqOEu4uEcL-/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">"Boo" Embroidery Hoop Centerpiece</span></b></span></div><br />Basic embroidery hoops set a spooky scene at your Halloween table. To make, stretch black costume fabric or lace through the painted hoops; trim extra fabric. Next, spray-paint planters for bases, then add enough florist's foam inside to secure a painted dowel through the middle. Finish with a square of black-and-white patterned paper atop the planters and a hauntingly fun message spelled out in painted wood letters. Hot glue can help secure the dowels and wood letters.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm1i8isCPieoOrMAz0idG99LAm8tucbAxuRDldkM9_rH6OcRnl_ZwJXhRIeD0a6gv4h-dcofaIHh5-OIBAEm4DiT-2OY-pvsVbvILOC61LVTqddla1JNqii9uYgmwlqz9MwCq9NQKR/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2" style="color: orange;">Ribbon Spool Stackers</span></b></span> </div><br />Colorful spools of ribbon display equally eye-catching desserts. Place scallop-edge die cuts (available at crafts stores or cut from a die-cutting tool) between the ribbon spools with a touch of adhesive to ensure stability. Top with a decadent treat for a sugary-sweet Halloween centerpiece.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b> Arrange the spools in a cluster around an accent piece, such as a colorful vase, or in a straight line on a table runner to maximize creativity.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgXkUx7HxFdJ3w9qsYXb-7XFNSWzh_IFF2ffHazsqYshMI6hJFaetS1uMKRodsPhD1uL2T9Nk_EngeVxVZY-F47hm26QWVeJWp_R1u4zjy_ceQUW_WGa07crDU0MN25hTC3B-KMWWa/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">White Pumpkins on Black Stands</span></b></span></div><br />Pumpkins painted white and covered in glitter stand out when placed on stark black stands. Use double-sided tape or an adhesive spray to get just the right amount of shine for this glitzy Halloween centerpiece.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5FfYVEXfCD44US6QnFq569L_Zwjh5ZNCfh2qWrr5ykBFOXGCU4D8f1TZAF6ai919FQKt9mdb_84-JvGJ6BJLaOnIZe_ngAG67I3mESJGg7QVfJ77KZELh6WmwisyAG6SCjcRLZE6a/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Recycled Halloween Centerpiece</span> </b></span></div><br />Scrapbook papers and floral accents are all it takes to "upcycle" yesterday's tin cans into a "green" Halloween centerpiece. Standard- and economy-size tin cans work well for this craft, although the more varied the sizes, the more intriguing the display. Wrap with scrapbook paper or add die-cut scenes or stickers as desired.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b> Keep the cans for next year, or give them away to guests as simple mementos of a frightful night.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijDpE74iA7yzpskv4ANvyv-a4jyMhxzLMQsHgksQsZhgNOd2ZHhFYIh_QM5PNwLI5ThTs4p09fl4mXf2TEwVN6dk1nJsXSeR6oT9zUISDr4Mj1eIPJSi5h6m3ud0eJDgQ2Ub1fSuoc/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Ghost Book Pop-Ups</span></b></span></div><br />A stack of old books forms the stand in this spooky centerpiece. To make, cut two basic ghost shapes from pages in the middle of a book, leaving the bottoms attached to their pages. Hold up each ghost with a touch of tape. To complete, use a hole punch or marker to make eyes for this haunting centerpiece.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQj4J-rlYHhFd3WSAPxoOJUZSNXRgMn8hKffe-_qenyvvzfc4QJ4pACpuohBIkZMG3xP3AstUHeEukyQ170xmP-nVBxsJw4egb5dy8ju0KxbZTbEV2hsmuIalGnYHOgH9d0GSXic5u/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Chalked Skeleton Centerpiece</span></b></span></div><br />Spray-paint Halloween props with black chalkboard paint, then outline them with chalk for frightfully aged flair. Fill the cauldron with a decorative bottle, handpicked beverage, or a tasty Halloween treat.

Heimatfabrik is a wide container that attempts to define “homeland”, this definition emerged after intense cultural research. With their works six artists illuminated specific aspects of the issue and injected it with the following six themes. Filter: homeland is landscape, everything foreign is overlooked. Order: homeland belongs to everyone, who occupies public space? Connect: homeland is language. Who do you know best? Incite: homeland is economy. Who understands the systems?

(Spoiler: They're just too big to sink all the way to the bottom.) Bright orange flowers resting in a glass and small, shallow bowl add more orange to this Halloween centerpiece.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b> To add more color, replace water with black and orange candies or smooth black stones.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWyaSuqfxMjOyGflQRz3b0bL0nzvFqTQGOrIkJk_DJdC693eT3iMfV-tJwvJ6eFYQtx8w6nJzuoIKu0osh-n_ZVOOTwK1hS6M8YTUT09c-wuT5zX5Hle7ZErqPhUuJQ24BLRIfJJPL/s640/Halloween-Centerpieces--ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Black-and-Orange Skeleton Candle Display</span></b></span></div><br /> These tall glass votive holders -- complete with a black jelly bean base -- hold black and orange candles.

The doorway is wrapped with a garland made of flexible twigs bundled with wire and woven with leafy branches. Mini pumpkins hang from a beam overhead while a faux bois urn supports a stack of pumpkins in graduated sizes nearby.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWqQZaE0j5TXuT_bhg_6JYqRPXDHfg7NfJ4vWThKMLGW-byvO6edT8nYGOd-IHlf9qpGyrPUJNTWoA2WFC6Y6Mya9uZouve1Z_BT8PnkJhOyI1cAdx-X5UZ2cbO0fvEETsEWk2xXvs/s640/Halloween-Door-Decor-2011-ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Bountiful Door Decor</span> </b></span></div><br />Celebrate the beauty and bounty of the Halloween season with pumpkins, squash, gourds, and flowers ripe with color. Nature's bounty is so pretty and interesting on its own that it needs few embellishments to become a wonderful focal point. Carve or paint a squash or gourd with a cheerful jack-o'-lantern face to add a bit of whimsy.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7BQrNC0mjC4m8l685AMsBkgFRLFICYR1aACZse1qWpXqa0hQi-tQ7apn3STfGvy9Osv-tSf3UaX_hznIozMYnV5ZJhOdJhsvaov1jsIotPVN6FF10uFqP0WziZddPjWjZ7pYHpnqV/s640/Halloween-Door-Decor-2011-ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Halloween Sign</span> </b></span></div><br />Create a hotel sign to welcome guests at the front door of your haunted Halloween abode. An old cast-off post gets new life when paired with a DIY sign. Simply assembled from 1x8-inch boards, the sign is painted and attached with eye hooks and chain to a vintage signpost. Be sure your sign reads "vacancy" so trick-or-treaters will know they can approach.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiavoA116wLmHDZxiCK4BUIxZMzaPOV8n8NfxH_xSrfiR34rk8RCtH6ybLrzpJMPvfs2tRRE03A6rX5jhICNWgx2M7V1TDbwC1mbpQ1DdAj5EqPlPIXlTAFXK1e5ybCbHvVOG2V4z3y/s640/Halloween-Door-Decor-2011-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Branch-Filled Bucket</span></b></span></div><br />Who can resist these adorable Halloween treat trees to flank your front door?

Invite kids to help themselves to mini buckets of treats hanging on the branches.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzEa3fgqvlOeOfdzXyC3Qdmqah9F80fvW5bcPLthYQ1lH0gf-lRcbvVHdsslJaSWY_GzpicDxmckelDCLCF6uJcIaEWMFqACLC5X1mG7qVS219wnmjq09nGIBPNZxGNA0v2uGDAHC7/s640/Halloween-Door-Decor-2011-ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Spooky Porch</span></b></span></div><br />With a little "witchcraft" you can set the stage for a spooky evening at your front door. Light a warm path to your door with luminaria and a lighted grapevine garland framing the doorway. Dangle a few faux bats and spiders near porch lights. Add black witch, cat, bat, and ghost silhouettes made of heavy paper to windows to increase the spooky ambience.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6lFvgSW8vrvDbdIeihZUifvtHGWg3GiJp5wyrBdVMpMSyfSOQywGCjDohuwGu05fUwI2-gLP3T3fG6PuUO7liPD4SgwQbY6C1_FioFEp792EFfdZfD2m9KDdWHSnoXa2IAi_rDqly/s640/Halloween-Door-Decor-2011-ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">A Family Fun Front Door</span></b></span></div><br />'Tis the season for jack-o'-lanterns and they are everywhere on this playful front door and porch. Simply paint expressions on paper lanterns and hang in a cluster for maximum effect. Then make Halloween pinatas on sticks and place in planters to flank the entry. Crepe paper jack-o'-lanterns put the finishing touch on the door.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQQquetSBAesuGpBhD43LQNwhQa5aDttmS16xUB8eeIE8_-i-EBNDuGudebpRuu2hcW1zZckDxR1oK9i5Gp3I-AABXVXUHAs0xj7_cpK-Q_5WGL82NCFaR_vQst4Vp6Hg59KvME53e/s640/Halloween-Door-Decor-2011-ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Halloween Web</span></b></span></div><br />Lengths of black ribbon and yarn and a bit of strategic weaving are all it takes to add shadowy spiderwebs to your front windows and door.
