A door wreath that makes you shiver
Jack’O Lantern, ghosts and bats: with Halloween approaching, little monsters are taking over the decor, and it starts at the front door.
Black, orange, and small elements evoking a witch who missed her landing when arriving: no doubt, this crown scrupulously fits the Halloween atmosphere! The concept can also be adapted according to your favorite creature: red and black for a little vampire, white and black for a ghost, etc.
Fall isn’t exclusively Halloween season! It is also that of the Mexican Día de Muertos (in other words: the Day of the Dead). Forgotten, the color orange and pumpkins: during this celebration, it is the skull motif and bright colors that lead the dance! To compose your door wreath, bet on a pretty bouquet of roses, in addition to a few skulls!
If you want a spooky decor with a decidedly gothic look, let yourself be inspired by literature! This feather crown decorated with a raven, for example, seems straight out of a short story by Edgar Allan Poe. To make this type of creation yourself, opt for the braid decorated with feathers, to buy in haberdashery and easy to wrap around a metal or polystyrene structure.
Even the holidays are not immune to trends! These days, the pattern inspired by the phases of the moon seems to have become essential in the bohemian interior. We also find it in the fall decoration, where the croissant competes with the traditional crown. Its particular shape also serves as a pretext for pretty scenes, like this black cat having fun with an inevitably magical crystal!
A revised and corrected door crown
Halloween decoration does not necessarily mean reckless spending. There are even many inexpensive DIY decor ideas for a spooky interior! And to have a stunning crown, you can simply revamp a model that you already have on hand.
Crown of vine branches or dried flowers can easily be transformed into a crown with “halloweenesque” accents. All it takes is a spray of black paint for them to radically change their personality. The total look is an option. For a more subtle aesthetic, let yourself be inspired by this pretty half-spooky, half-natural model.
Perhaps you care too much about your beautiful dried flower wreath to transform it permanently by painting it black. In this case, just pimp it up by adding little spooky details. Bats made of fabric, felt or paper are the easiest elements to make. Depending on your inspiration, you can however add a few skulls or cucurbits!
Not so long ago, the minimalist crown was the wall decoration to have at all costs! Our favorite was even the model decorated with a few eucalyptus branches. Did you break down yourself? Take it out of the cupboard, add a few mini-cucurbits, possibly some flowers or foliage in autumn colors, and here it is transformed into an autumnal garland to eat.
