One way I have been decorating for Halloween these last few years is to incorporate Halloween plants into my Halloween decor by making Halloween plant decorations. After all, my sweet little planties don’t want to miss out on all the fun!
There really is no reason to go and spend a bunch of money on Halloween decor when you can just jazz up the indoor plants already in your home.
The last few year’s, I have found some really cute Halloween plant pots at my local Lowe’s. Of course, I have found lots of cute seasonal plants and holiday plant pots at Lowe’s over the years – like I featured in spring table setting with succulents post, my plants on the Christmas table post and in my black and white Christmas home tour.
One way you can have fun with Halloween plant decorations is to actually buy the plants in Halloween plant pots already, as I just mentioned.
Decorating with Halloween Plants
These Halloween plant pots are primarily sold with small succulents for Halloween plant decorations.
Halloween Plant Pots as Halloween Gifts
If you are one who likes to give Halloween gifts, these little Halloween succulents are great Halloween gift ideas. Rather than gifting Halloween flowers, gift some Halloween plant pots instead! Think how cute these little Halloween plant pots would look in a Halloween gift basket.
Jack O Lantern Plant Pots
I bought these metal jack o lantern plant pots at Home Goods. However, I think they are actually supposed to be candle holders. No matter. Just add something down into them to give your plants some lift and you are ready to go! I added black construction paper to mine to give the creepy dark eyes look to them. But I have also used white paper (which I don’t like as much).
I have also used the jack o lantern plant pots on my dining table as the centerpiece. My bird’s nest fern, a pothos, and a snake plant were quite happy to be part of the holiday festivities!
Halloween Plant Decorations Using Regular Plant Pots
You don’t have to buy special pots to have Halloween plants. You can make Halloween plant decorations using the plants and pots you already have and adding them to your existing Halloween decor.
One of the easiest ways to make Halloween plant decorations is to insert witch legs into your plants. You can find them at Hobby Lobby, Target, and other places with Halloween decor pretty cheap. They come in various sizes so you can buy some for small plants all the way up to big plants.
I found this little black crow in the dollar spot at Target. No doubt, it turns these basic hanging plants into perfect Halloween plants!
Simply, set a plant on top of a stack of Halloween books for another easy Halloween plant decoration.
Finding Truly Creepy Plants for Halloween
Of course, there are actual plants out there that work perfectly as scary plants for Halloween! A lot of these plants are not always available at my local plant stores. Therefore, understand you may have to make an early online order if you want to have some of these types of plants for Halloween plant decorations.
I hope you enjoyed my Halloween plants post! Be sure to check out some of my other Halloween-inspired posts for decorating and party-planning – like my Halloween captions, my Halloween classroom treats for kids, and our Halloween boollerina birthday party posts.
