Hello there!  Its almost October which means Halloween time.  Today, I am sharing these Haunted Halloween Signs that are perfect for your Halloween decor.  Can you believe these signs are made out of foam?  It’s true!  The pre-made signs are easily made by painting each sign with acrylic paints to create creepy and fun decor.

  • FloraCraft® StyroGlue®

Instructions: 

I started by painting all three foam signs using a black acrylic paint.  I love these foam Halloween signs because the surface is smooth and no prep is needed.  Let the black paint dry before moving on to the next step.

I used a light gray acrylic paint to paint over the black paint.  This step makes the signs look distressed and old.  I like how the gray breaks up the boldness of the black.

I painted the raised letters on each sign using purple, green, and orange acrylic paint.  I wanted to use bright Halloween colors for a pop of fun since the black and gray are spooky.

I cut a scrap piece of wood that I had in my garage for the pole that the signs attach to.  I painted the wood with a gray enamel paint.  Then, I used StyroGlue to glue the foam signs to the wood board.  Finally, I added some craft spider webs and hot glued a small black crow to the top of the wood board.

These Haunted Halloween Signs are great for your front yard to greet trick or treaters!  You could even leave a bowl of candy in front of the signs.
