How to keep your Halloween decor classy
Striking the right balance between spooky and classy can sometimes be a challenge.
As you decorate your home with spooky home decor, keep these tips in mind to create the perfect blend of haunting and classy charm:
- Colours – choose an elegant colour palette; go for rich, dark colours e.g. deep purple, black, emerald green and add an accent colour such as gold or silver
- Focus on subtle gothic elements – use elegant gothic-inspired accents, such as ornate candle holders, vintage frames, lace table runners, etc.
- Work with dark florals – set a moody vibe with dark florals; think dark red, dark purple, etc.
- Twinkling light – focus on soft, warm lighting, this helps to create a cosy atmosphere while enhancing the spooky ambience
- Mix modern and vintage – blend contemporary home decor with vintage-inspired home decor pieces
- Less is more – invest in a few striking centrepieces and place them strategically around the house; almost hidden, yet visible
