So I might be just a little proud of my Halloween decor collection guys…
Yes, a lot of these items are just basic little things I have grabbed at a T.J. Max here and there over the past few years, but my crown jewel part of my collection actually is a super easy DIY project!
See all these black super hip (sorry I mean “lit”) matte black decorations? This was a haul at my local Goodwill store for about $10, refurbished by yours-truly with a rattle can of matte black spray paint!
Here are my super easy instructions on how to make them yourself!
-
- Go thrifting. Don’t pick out normal stuff… go for the uniquely shaped things, items with intricate detail, candle-holders especially. Don’t let ugly colors throw you off – it will all be covered up by the paint!
- Snag some Matte Black spray paint like this: Krylon K09198000 COVERMAXX Spray Paint, Matte Black, 12 Ounce
- Take some old newspaper and head outside to make the transformation! Lay the items flat on the paper and spray them evenly. Let the paint dry, then flip and spray the other side or areas you missed.
- Get creepy with your decorating!!

It was so easy! People come over and see these decorations and never believe that they used to be old funky dishes from Goodwill.
I love this! I will definitely have to try some of these ideas out xx
Super cute! I’m terrible about Halloween decorations, but I might have to give this a try;).
The candy dish is fab!
Aren’t they fun?! Just funky old dishes turned into something new
Halloween is my all time favorite holiday and seeing your collection, your pieces are great! Also Goodwill has some amazing steals if you’re willing to put in the time to scavenge. Great post!
