Halloween, but make it cute and family-friendly! 🌸 I don’t know about you, but this year I want to take a break from spooky, scary, gross thrills and focus on familiar, cheerful, adorable experiences instead. Give me Charlie Brown, some pumpkin tea, and a spooky Squishmallow for the couch!
If you’re with me, or you just want to add some cute things to your Halloween collection, you’ll love this list I put together! Everything comes from Amazon, so it’s all reasonably priced and well-reviewed; the free shipping with Prime doesn’t hurt either. I’ve added everything from plushies and cupcake toppers to pink pumpkins and themed wall hangings. Grab your favorites while they’re still in stock!
Throw a Classy Halloween Party with Pink Pumpkins
If the color pink lights up your whole existence, I’m happy to tell you there are pink autumn decorations for sale on Amazon! This seven-piece set of pumpkins is available in not one, but FOUR different shades of your favorite color, so you can pick the right look for your buffet table or mantle.
Cute Wooden Ghosties for Quick Decor
Wooden decorations are a good standby because they’re so simple. No fragile/moving parts, no cheap plastic bits, easy to repaint if needed. I love these wooden ghosts because they remind me of the vintage sheet ghost costume. I never dressed up under a sheet myself, but I imagine it’s a big headache when you’re running around in the dark. 😅
Get This Bat Plushie for Your Kids (or Your Kawaii Collection)
This off-brand Squishmallow style plushie is the cuddle buddy your sofa needs. I’m talking rainy autumn nights with your favorite holiday movie. 🍂 Out of all of the Halloween plushies on Amazon, this one is my favorite; he reminds me of Totoro!
Tiny Pumpkin Spice Lattes for Your Coffee Bar
If you’re obsessed with all things Starbucks, you need these little foam pumpkin spice latte decorations. Throw a few pumpkins and these guys up next to your Keurig and you’ll have the cutest conversation starter! I’m not personally a pumpkin spice fanatic, but I would buy these just to squish them.
There’s Something a Little Strange about These Cupcake Toppers…
Take your dessert game to the next level with these witchy cupcake toppers! Reviewer T.J. says these toppers added just the right touch for her Halloween party: “These witches boots cupcake toppers were a big hit at my grandson’s high school band Halloween party. They are also a big hit with grandma since all I had to do was frost the cupcake and just pop one of these on top. No muss, no fuss. The topper has good color, was the perfect sturdiness, and was a good price. I will use something from this line again.”
These Jack-O-Lanterns are Classic
Your porch or windowsill decor isn’t complete without a few of these guys! Because they’re made with battery-operated lights and foam, these farm-style pumpkins are perfect for reusing every October. They’ll give your doorstep a friendly face – or three!
Your Home will Look Like Hogwarts with These Floating Candles
If you’re still waiting for that letter, it’s time to bring the castle vibe to you! Attach these battery-powered candles to the ceiling with some clear fishing wire to transform your dining room into the Great Hall. Bonus points if you can perform a sorting ceremony, play a Potter board game, or serve a few butterbeers!
Classic Movie Fans, You’re Going to Want This Ghostbusters Light
Perfect for over your bar, entertainment center, or your PC! You can plug this Ghostbusters light in using the USB cable or power it with batteries, making the sign convenient to place pretty much anywhere. Now you can directly signal your guests when you’re ready to debate them about all of the Ghostbusters reboots. My hot take: I actually like the 2016 Ghostbusters, even though it’s a little yikes at times! That being said, I have zero interest in watching Ghostbusters: Afterlife; it’s just trying too hard to be like Stranger Things IMO.
Take the Teal Pumpkin to a Whole New Level
You’ve had about a decade to get that teal pumpkin out on the porch in time for Halloween, but in case you need one for 2022, this one is extra special! The inflatable design really stands out from the rest, so you can one-up your normie neighbors. As a reminder, only put out teal pumpkins this October if you’re planning to hand out non-candy treats!
Add These Crows to Any Wreath, Garland, or Spooky Centerpiece
Buyers put these adorable blackbirds to use in really fun, creative ways. I’m seeing Harry Potter, Alfred Hitchcock, and pumpkin patch setups specifically, but these would also look great in a graveyard! Each bird comes with attached wires, so you can easily anchor them to any surface.
Don’t Forget the Orange String Lights!
Especially if your Halloween house party is at night, you’re going to want some mood lighting. Wrap these string lights around your favorite maple leaf garland, drape them over a door frame or spread them out over your dining table for a magical autumn vibe.
Fill Your Empty Spaces with These Bats!
Maybe you just moved in and you don’t have time to decorate every wall (me last year). Maybe you’re just broke and you have to make every decoration stretch as far as possible this year (me this year). Luckily, for less than $10 you can set up a spooky feature wall with these bat decals.
Flameless Candles in Every Color
Instead of stocking up on six sets of different colored flameless candles, why not invest in one set that can change colors? That’s exactly what this set does! Set all six to match, rotate through colors, or set each candle to a different color. The vibe is completely in your hands.
Create Charming Family Photos with This Fall Backdrop
Grab your flannel, your pumpkin spice latte, and your knit cap, fam – it’s picture time! This decorative wall hanging comes in a variety of sizes, perfect for all ages. Reviewer ButterflyBlue says it was really easy to put up too: “This backdrop is absolutely gorgeous with the vibrant colors. It was perfect right out of the package (no wrinkles). We were able to hang and take photos right away.”
Bring a Little Disney Halloween Magic to Your Home with These Jars
Have you been to Disneyland during the fall season? It’s amazing! They have amazing autumn decor, a special nighttime fireworks show and they even deck out the Haunted Mansion with Nightmare Before Christmas decor. If you want your house to feel like Disneyland in October, grab these jars for some extra immersion! It’s the perfect place to store snacks or coffee grinds.
A Hocus Pocus Garden Flag for Your Patio
Aside from battery-powered jack-o-lanterns, I think flags are the easiest decoration to put up and maintain over the course of a whole month. This one is for witch enthusiasts! You’ll be shouting “amuck, amuck, amuck” when you hear the Amazon delivery guy coming up your driveway – let’s hope he gets the reference.
Serve the Spoopiest Boba or Iced Coffee in These Ghostly Glasses
This type of glass is super trendy right now! Regardless of what your guests are drinking, these glasses are guaranteed to make them smile. Buyer MCSF praised the aesthetic of these cups: “Such a cute cup! It makes all your drinks look fancy! The glass straws are everything!”
Add Vintage Halloween Ambience to Your Yard with These Peanuts Cutouts
Decorate your yard like the pumpkin patch from It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown if you’re looking for something unique and immersive. Throw a handful of pumpkins out on the lawn, stick these pickets in, and light it up! A friendly Snoopy face will bring all the best trick-or-treaters to your doorstep.
Add a Full Moon Night Light to Your Guest Bathroom
Crystals, potions, magic, oh my! The muggles won’t be able to resist the mystical glow of this perfect orb – and neither can I, admittedly. I have one like this one and I love using it in my guest bathroom; it’s a great alternative to candles and your guests won’t trip in your pitch-black hallway anymore.
Throw a Beetlejuice Party with These Awesome Party Supplies
Beetlejuice is a quirky classic that would make a great feature film at your annual Halloween screening. I’m totally obsessed with Michael Keaton, so you know I love these Beetlejuice party supplies. With a few funky drinks and Belafonte songs later, you’ll really be getting into the spirit of things.
A Cat Window Hanging for Your Street-Facing Window
Maybe you don’t have a house or condo with a yard to decorate. Sometimes, it all comes down to one door or window – that’s all that anyone is publicly going to see. If that’s the case for you (as it is for me), consider buying a simple window hanging like this one for your window. Personally, I love this one so much that I would keep it up all year long!
This DIY Jiji Decoration will Help You Show Off Your Love for Studio Ghibli
I love Kiki’s Delivery Service! It’s such a sweet movie about finding yourself and being a good witch. Unfortunately, most of the other Jiji figurines online are pretty dang expensive or low-stock; this officially licensed paper theater is only $16 right now, so you don’t have to break the bank to bring your favorite black cat to life. I recommend putting it in a display cabinet or a glass box to protect it.
