Decorate Your Porch- and Awning!- For Halloween

Posted on Thursday, October 30th, 2014 at 3:49 pm.

Have you left your Halloween decorating until the last minute this year?  Never fear! There are plenty of simple decorations that you can put up before the hordes of trick-or-treaters come knocking for their candy on Friday night. And one part of your front porch is perfectly primed to serve as a base for some of your creepiest adornments: your awning! Read on to find out how to construct a haunting holiday display using your residential awning.

Additions to Your Awning For Halloween

An awning that covers your front porch or door provides you with an ideal spot from which to hang certain decorations. Try creating a massive spider web, either using window webbing from a craft store or simply string. You can anchor it at the corners of your awning to keep it from blowing away or getting knocked down. Attach a giant (and hopefully fake!) spider as a bone-chilling bonus!

You can hang even more from your awning to complete your perfect Halloween look. Cut out silhouettes of different spooky creatures, such as bats and bugs, and hole-punch them so that they can be strung up and dangled from the edge of your awning. You could even use your awning to hang twinkle lights- in holiday-appropriate orange, of course- to make your home really stand out on Halloween night! On your porch itself, make sure to display your jack-o-lanterns, scream-worthy scarecrows, and any other decoration you might want. With a little help from your awning, you’re sure to have the most unique house on the block for the trick-or-treaters to visit!
