Give it a distressed finish and add a creepy portrait. A collection of mismatched glass jars? Fill them with spooky curiosities for a mad-scientist display. An ordinary basket? With a little DIY magic, it could become a pumpkin, ghost, or other seasonal statement piece.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1087\" data-end=\"1345\">Goodwill Central Texas has transformed thrifted baskets, frames, books, jars, figurines, and more into Halloween decor in past DIY projects\u2014proof that sometimes the best decorations weren&#8217;t originally decorations at all.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1347\" data-end=\"1478\"><strong data-start=\"1347\" data-end=\"1365\">Thrifting tip:<\/strong> Don\u2019t shop for a finished Halloween decoration. Shop for shapes, textures, colors, and pieces you can reimagine.<\/p>\n<\/section><section aria-labelledby=\"step-2\" class=\"article-step\"><h2 id=\"step-2\" tabindex=\"-1\">Set a Spooky Secondhand Table<\/h2><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1514\" data-end=\"1623\">Hosting a Halloween party\u2014or just want to make dinner a little more dramatic? Head to the housewares section.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1625\" data-end=\"1935\">Mix and match thrifted candleholders, serving pieces, glassware, table linens, and dishes to create a tablescape that feels collected rather than straight out of a box. Look for dark colors, metallic accents, vintage details, and interesting shapes that can bring a little haunted-house character to the table.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1937\" data-end=\"2066\">Don&#8217;t worry about finding a perfectly matched set, either. For Halloween, <strong data-start=\"2011\" data-end=\"2065\">a little mismatch can make things more interesting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2068\" data-end=\"2341\">Finish the scene with pumpkins, candles, faux cobwebs, bats, or other Halloween touches you already have at home. Goodwill Central Texas&#8217; Halloween DIY collection even features a Salem-inspired tablescape created with secondhand finds.<\/p>\n<\/section><section aria-labelledby=\"step-3\" class=\"article-step\"><h2 id=\"step-3\" tabindex=\"-1\">Give Everyday Decor a Halloween Twist<\/h2><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2385\" data-end=\"2509\">You don&#8217;t necessarily need to buy something that&#8217;s orange, black, or covered in skeletons for it to work as Halloween decor.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2511\" data-end=\"2917\">Try looking for pieces you can temporarily transform or style for the season. A vase can hold a moody arrangement of branches or dark flowers. A vintage mirror can become part of a haunted entryway. Old books can anchor a witchy shelf display. Picture frames, candlesticks, figurines, and baskets can all take on an entirely different personality with paint, removable embellishments, or the right styling.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2919\" data-end=\"3248\">Even better, choosing reversible DIYs means those finds can go right back to their everyday lives after October 31. One Goodwill Central Texas DIY, for example, transformed a thrifted woven basket into a ghost side table using removable details so the basket could be reused after Halloween.<\/p>\n<\/section><section aria-labelledby=\"step-4\" class=\"article-step\"><h2 id=\"step-4\" tabindex=\"-1\">Pick a Palette and Let It Guide You<\/h2><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"3290\" data-end=\"3404\">One easy way to make thrifted Halloween decor feel intentional is to choose a loose color palette before you shop.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"3406\" data-end=\"3665\">Classic <strong data-start=\"3414\" data-end=\"3434\">orange and black<\/strong> always works, but Halloween doesn&#8217;t have to stop there. Try black and gold for something glam, cream and warm neutrals for a softer fall look, deep jewel tones for a moody feel, or even pastels for a playful take on spooky season.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"3667\" data-end=\"3884\">Having a few colors in mind can also help you spot possibilities faster. Suddenly, that purple vase, brass candleholder, or black picture frame isn&#8217;t just a thrift find\u2014it&#8217;s exactly what your Halloween display needed.<\/p>\n<\/section><section aria-labelledby=\"step-5\" class=\"article-step\"><h2 id=\"step-5\" tabindex=\"-1\">Mix Thrifted Finds with What You Already Own<\/h2><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"3935\" data-end=\"4009\">The most budget-friendly Halloween decoration is the one you already have.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"4011\" data-end=\"4171\">Before you shop, take a quick look around your home and pull out pieces that could work in a Halloween display. Then use your Goodwill trip to fill in the gaps.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"4173\" data-end=\"4401\">Maybe you already have the candles but need interesting candleholders. You have the pumpkins but need a tray to group them together. Or you have plenty of decor but need a few unusual pieces to give the display some personality.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"4403\" data-end=\"4552\">Combining what you own with secondhand finds can keep costs down while creating a Halloween look that&#8217;s much less likely to resemble everyone else&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<\/section><section aria-labelledby=\"step-6\" class=\"article-step\"><h2 id=\"step-6\" tabindex=\"-1\">Don&#039;t Forget the Front Door<\/h2><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"4586\" data-end=\"4647\">Your Halloween makeover can start before anyone steps inside.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"4649\" data-end=\"4924\">Thrift stores can be treasure troves for baskets, wreath forms, faux florals, containers, signs, and other pieces you can repurpose for a porch or front-door display. Add pumpkins, branches, ribbon, bats, or other seasonal touches to make an entrance worthy of spooky season.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"4926\" data-end=\"5129\">And when you&#8217;re shopping, think beyond Halloween night. Pieces with fall colors and textures can often carry your porch or entryway through the rest of autumn, giving you even more use out of your finds.<\/p>\n<\/section><section aria-labelledby=\"step-7\" class=\"article-step\"><h2 id=\"step-7\" tabindex=\"-1\">Make Halloween Hauntingly Your Own<\/h2><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"5170\" data-end=\"5375\">The best Halloween decor doesn&#8217;t have to come from the seasonal aisle. Sometimes it starts with a basket, a frame, an old book, or that wonderfully weird thing you weren&#8217;t looking for until you spotted it.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"5377\" data-end=\"5488\">That&#8217;s what makes thrifting Halloween so much fun: <strong data-start=\"5428\" data-end=\"5488\">you never know what you&#8217;ll find\u2014or what it might become.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"5490\" data-end=\"5922\">So bring your imagination, browse every aisle, and see what inspires you. Whether your Halloween style is creepy, cute, campy, classic, or somewhere in between, Goodwill Central Texas is a great place to start your hunt. The organization&#8217;s Halloween DIY hub also has projects ranging from thrifted decor transformations to Halloween tablescapes if you need a little inspiration before you shop.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"5924\" data-end=\"6036\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">Ready to thrift your Halloween? <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwillcentraltexas.org\/halloween\/locations\/\">Find a <span class=\"contents\" data-content-reference-start=\"5921\" data-content-reference-end=\"5980\"><span class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\">Goodwill Central Texas location near you<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/strong> and scare up something amazing.<\/p>\n<\/section><aside class=\"article-tip\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\">\u2733<\/span><div><h2>DIY tip<\/h2><p>Choose a shared color to connect different shapes and textures.
