Halloween haunted house crafts are so much fun- for everyone! You can make them as scary as you want or as low-key as you want (especially if you have little ones that may not be ready for the “spookiness” just yet).
A Halloween House Craft – For Everyone!
About a month ago I found these two wooden houses at the Dollar Tree, called Dollarama where I am in Canada. I thought it would be too cute to have two of them face each other with some lights going in between, using a crate that I also found at Dollarama. So many great craft finds there, they never let me down! I think one of my kids decided to use it instead, which is fine because I got to use a dollar store tray instead!
I had the plan to paint with green, and then paint over it with black and use glue to give it the crackle effect, but I didn’t have any more glue! But you know that if you’re a crafter, you don’t fret- you simply find another way to be crafty. I did exactly that and turned it into a Halloween haunted house decoupage craft with dollar store napkins- they did not disappoint! This goes to show how many options you have available for this fun craft.
