If you find me in a store, I am usually shopping all the clearance sections. I am constantly on the hunt for inexpensive products that I know I can use. One of my favorite areas to shop is party supplies. You can use party supplies all the time and I find different ways to make them into other things than what they are made for. Today, I am sharing DIY Halloween Decor that I made from some clearance party supplies I found at Target. I picked these up because they were black and only 22¢ and I immediately thought “Halloween”.

Supplies Needed To Make This DIY Halloween Decor: Bat Decoration:
Black Honeycomb Party Decorations
Black Cardstock or Construction Paper
This project could not be any easier. Really.
How I Made This DIY Halloween Decor:
I unfolded the honeycombs and glued the ends together so they wouldn’t come apart.
Then, I cut bat wings from black construction paper.
I hot glued the wings to the honeycomb. Since the construction paper is kind of flimsy (cardstock would be stronger), I hot glued a wooden skewer to the back of them and then hot glued another pair of wings over top of the skewer to hide it.
The skewer worked perfectly for making the wings stay straight with the construction paper.
That’s it!
It was the easiest way to create some DIY Halloween Decor on the cheap.
The bats were so fun inside the trees during our Halloween party.
DIY Halloween Decor can be made out of so many things. Search around your home and see what you have lying around that you could repurpose into Halloween decor.
If you don’t have time to create your own, I found some great options online:

What a great idea! Man, I wish I had your foresight…I would have walked right by that deal at Target because in summer I am only focused on summer stuff (terrible habit to have). I completely admire people who can think ahead like that!
Thanks so much Kim. I am always picking things up here and there on clearance. I know I will be able to use them!
These are so cool! They turned out awesome. The kids will love them at the Halloween party.
I hope so Courtney!~
