Power Source

Some outdoor Halloween decorations need to be connected to electricity to work. If it lights up or moves it will most likely need power. Check the specifications to see if the decoration you like does. If so, plan where you're going to put the decorations so it's near a power source.

Size

It's important to look at the size of the decoration before you make your decision. You'll need to make sure you have plenty of room for the decoration and that it will be in scale with the rest of your decor. Size is also important when you go to store the decoration: too big, and you may not find anyplace to tuck it away for next year.

Style

Halloween decorations come in lots of different styles, from cute to scary and everything in between. What type of outdoor display do you want to create? Do you want to keep it kid-friendly for the little ones, or are you after a mini haunted house? After you've decided how scary you want your display to be, you're ready to pick out those decorations. Choose something you like the look of, will go great in your yard, and will last for years to come.

FAQ

  • How do you clean outdoor Halloween decorations?

    Dirt and dust can build up on your outdoor Halloween decorations quite easily. To clean off any dust, use a microfiber cloth to wipe it down. If there's more stubborn dirt, add water mixed with a small amount of dishwashing liquid to the cloth and then clean. You can clean both plastic decorations and inflatables this way. Some decorations will have specific cleaning advice and, if so, you'll find that on the care label.

  • How do you hang outdoor Halloween decorations?

    The trickiest part of hanging outdoor Halloween decorations is figuring out how to secure them. You'll most likely want some temporary solutions, since the decorations won't stay up year-round. Tie decorations to trees or porch ceilings using fishing line. Inflatables will need to be tethered down, and lawn stakes will do the trick. Lights can be hung on Christmas light clips which you can reuse for the winter holidays.

  • How do you store outdoor Halloween decorations?

    Outdoor Halloween decorations should be stored somewhere away from the weather when not in use. Basements, attics, and garages are all great options. Make sure any inflatables are completely deflated before storing. Gently fold them to store, making sure they're not around any sharp objects. Large decorations can be wrapped in paper if needed and then stored. For smaller decorations, store them in clean containers that are clearly labeled. Most importantly, store all of your Halloween decorations together, making them easy to find for next year.
