DIY Halloween Yard Decoration Idea

Looking for DIY Halloween yard decoration ideas? We have a simple idea that’s inexpensive too–all you need are some plates from the dollar store! 

We transformed this big bush in front of the house into a spooky Halloween creature. You can do the same with your shrubs or even trees. All you need are four melamine plates from the dollar store–don’t use glass. Our total cost? About $4 for these 3D eyes!

How to create these “spooky Halloween eyes”

  1. Buy two dinner-size white melamine plates from the dollar store.
  2. Buy two small black plates or saucers from the dollar store. (If you can’t find black plates, use black spray paint, or other paint.)
  3. Use an epoxy that will hold plastics together to glue the black plate onto the white plate, like you see in the photo. If you don’t have this kind of epoxy/glue, here is an epoxy that will work.
  4. We used big binder clips (two on each “eye”) to attach the plates/eyes to the bush. 
  5. Now, stand back, and enjoy your creation!

I thought of Maya Angelou when I watched the inaug I thought of Maya Angelou when I watched the inauguration. She was the poet at Bill Clinton's inauguration, if anyone remembers. This is the link to that reading youtube.com/watch?v=8ecWterxtq0 ("On the Pulse of Morning")  She lived not far from me, and when she died, I went to her estate sale. I regretted not going to see her speak while I had the chance and wanted to buy something that belonged to her. We were actually able to go into her house. People were picking through her dishes and rooms full of books, and there were paintings and scuptures she'd been gifted that were selling for thousands of dollars. Her bedroom was closed off, but it felt like we shouldn't be there.  For the few who don't know it, this is probably her most famous poem and my favorite:  Still I Rise  You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.  Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
’Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I’ll rise.  Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops,
Weakened by my soulful cries?  Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don’t you take it awful hard
’Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines
Diggin’ in my own backyard.  You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.  Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I’ve got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?  Out of the huts of history’s shame
I rise
Up from a past that’s rooted in pain
I rise
I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.  Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.
