Beading Projects - 5 Easy And Also Fun Halloween Decorations

Halloween is fast becoming the most popular holiday in the country, currently second only to Christmas, and the holiday really outranks Christmas with respect to money spent on decorations, food, and drink (the leading champion of holiday party spending is, and likely always will be, New Year's, but Halloween is a strong second!). So if you're looking for fun Halloween beading projects to "spookify" things next October 31, then keep reading and we'll outline five fun Halloween beading projects you can try! Or, if you're going down the path of selling the fruits of your bead craft work, you will find a large and standing market for the designs you make!

1 - Jack o'Lanterns - The classic, beadwork style! You can use seed beads of several shades of oranges and yellows (on a black background if you're looking to make something larger), to hang on the mantle or as a dressing to the porch railing. Involve the children by having them plan out the faces!

2 - Black Cats - A plain cat silhouette can be the basis for a design (all black seed beads, or black mixed with a smattering of silver for dramatic effect), with the option of using larger beads for the eyes. These can be kept relatively simple or can become a dramatically more complex beading project, but even the simplest designs can make quite a dramatic statement!

3 - Witches - You can do a simple bust pattern or a whole figure representation of a witch on a broomstick, based on your overall skill level. These are fun to make, and make excellent decorations, but tend to be more involved than either of the projects above.

4 - Dangling Skeletons - Undoubtedly the most complex of the projects mentioned here, these can be created of any size you wish, but surely smaller is better from a "time to complete" viewpoint. If you don't want to worry over creating an actual skeletal design, you can weave a skeletal pattern onto a black background, say, the size of a square drink coaster and still have an attractive piece to decorate with!

5 - Candy Corns - These aren't spooky, but certainly suit the period, and are most fun when made as 3-dimensional shapes. I would not recommend going much beyond two inches high, or they'll take far too long to complete, but because of their relatively simple design, this is another work that's excellent to involve the children in!

As you can see based on the five ideas above, there are all sorts of fun holiday beading projects you can sink your teeth into, and this list just barely scratches the surface of the beading projects available, so whether you want to use them to beautify your own home, or sell what you produce, it's time to get creating!
