Fun Ways to Decorate Your Garage Door
With new technology and creativity, there are more ways to decorate garage doors. Create a fun or scary scene on your garage, or have family, neighbors, or friends over for a pumpkin carving contest on Halloween. Whatever you choose, cherish the time with your family.
Silhouettes and Shadows
Silhouettes on a garage door with added hidden lights can be unique, but it takes more planning and hard work.
The perfect background can be your garage door for awe-inspiring backlit scenes. A little bit of plywood, black paint, screws, and some tools, and you have a silhouette you can put in front of your garage door. Use any color lighting behind them for an incredible look!
Spooky Shadow Art
If your garage door has windows, this is the perfect opportunity to place spooky silhouettes in your garage door windows.
Create cut-outs, tape them to the back of your windows, and turn the garage light on to create an eerie effect. The possibilities are endless, and it is an excellent craft with your kids. Older children like this project because they can do it without help.
When placing the silhouettes in the windows, first tape the black construction paper shapes to the windows, then tape thin, yellow, purple, green, or orange tissue paper over the entire window. That ensures the garage’s contents will not be visible when the light is on; passersby will only see a soft Halloween glow behind the silhouettes.
Accent Porch or Garage Door Lights
Add Halloween Light Covers to your Garage Door lights—a simple and fun way to add character to your front and garage doors. Also, consider a DIY project for your family with plastic pumpkins.
Cover your door with Halloween Decals, Magnets, or a Banner.
Decorating your garage door for Halloween is easy if you buy a decal.
Whether they feature spiders, ghouls, ghosts, or other monsters, make sure you choose one that fits the exact size of your garage. They’re easy enough to hang up and take down — depending on the size of your door, you may need a ladder.
Halloween outdoor magnetics are the perfect and easy Halloween Decor for your home and yard this year! Add these cute and spooky decorations to your garage door, kitchen refrigerator, or dry-erase board in your classroom or office this fall.
