Quick & Easy Halloween Party Crafts with Free Printables
Can you believe Halloween is 'round the corner?! Me neither! So I thought I'd better get my skates on and start sharing some spooky inspired posts asap.
And today's easy crafty ideas are so quick and fun to make, even the kiddos can help - you'll get a good 30 minutes of peace (tried and tested), and that's always a great incentive to get kids crafting if nothing else! 😋
These little party hacks also jazz up or should I say spookify (yes, it's a word now...) any party ware you may already have at home, which is a huge bonus for super busy party gals like us, right?!
I'm also joining a bunch of fab party bloggers to share even more creative Halloween themed party ideas and eye candy with you all this week!!
Yes, it's a Halloween blog hop y'all! 😎
Today we're posting alongside the fabulous Custom Mae'd (she's sharing a fab BOO free printable, so don't miss it!). So if you're hoping over from her blog, welcome to the party!
Quick and Easy Halloween Party Crafts
DIY Skeleton Goblets
As a party blogger I collect plates, cups, flatware...it's a passion/obsession of mine. But I also like to invest on classic, clean, inexpensive pieces that can be used for any occasion.
So how do you turn simple glassware into Halloween-worthy goblets? With a little hot glue magic, that's how! 😉
Materials:
* wine glass (plastic or glass)
* wine glass (plastic or glass)
* hot glue gun
* plastic skeleton hands
NOTE: I must warn you that may not be able to get the skeleton hands off you glass after glued in place, so only use glass that you don't mind adding hot glue to!
Directions:
Simply apply some glue to the skeleton hands and glue to the front of the glass. You can use three like I did or cover the entire thing in skeletal hands!
But why stop at glasses? You can stick them creepy hands to party favor bags, headbands, earrings...
DIY Broomstick Drink Stirrers
No Halloween drink should be complete without some form of spooky drink stirrers, right? So let's make these mini broomstick, shall we?
Materials:
* black electrical tape
* raffia strands
* scissors
Directions:
Cut enough strands of raffia the same size, to wrap around the top of your straws. Then use the tape to secure them in place. Easy as pie!
DIY Witch Hat Bottle Toppers
These cute hats can be made to decorate drinks bottles or you can also stick them to headbands for a cute, speedy Halloween headband 😉
Materials:
* black card stock
* round 2 1/2 inch paper puncher (optional)
* hot glue
* scissors
* mini hat template - download yours here
Directions:
Print and cut your template for the mini hat. Trace it around the black card and cut. Roll the top of the hat to form a cone, then hot-glue it to close. Glue to the round base and you're done. You can cut the round base with a per puncher or freehand.
To stick onto bottle caps, use a little hot glue or glue dots.

Free Halloween Printables
Now, you can't get easier DIY party decor than party printables! So if you're reeeally pushed for time or totes can't be bothered to whip out the glue gun, then these free Halloween printables will come in super handy!
Use them as spider web bottle labels, use the round tags as cupcake toppers, favor tags, straw decor and more!
