Halloween season is the perfect time to go spellbound with your home decor—but who says you have to wait until the leaves change? Whether you’re looking to be the talk of the trick-or-treaters or give off a year-round spooky vibe, here are the best tips for witchy-inspired homemaking.
1. Incorporate Natural Decor Ideas and Accents

If nature, plants, and greenery make your cauldron bubble, consider a green witch theme for your home decor. Think dried flowers, moss, branches, trees, mushrooms, and other accents that create the feel of a green witch’s hut deep in an enchanted forest. Choose decor and wall paint colors in earth tones such as mossy greens, golden yellows, sunset oranges, and rich browns.
Indoor plants are another element that can bring the enchanted forest vibe to the next level. Fill every sunny part of your home with leafy plants and vines such as ivy, spider plants, monstera, and pothos. If you want the look but aren’t sure you’ll have time for the upkeep, look for plants that you don’t need to water often, like snake plants, jade, and a string of pearls. Accent your decor and greenery with crystals for extra witchy flair.
2. Furnish Your Place With Ornate Antiques

The ornate designs of Victorian-style antique furniture are perfect complements to a year-round witchy home. Scope your local antique malls for Victorian-style sofas and detailed furniture carvings that you might find in an old haunted house (as a bonus, you’ll often save big on solid wood furniture versus buying all-new). Accent the look with antique framed artwork, chandeliers, velvety throw pillows, and dark academia decor.
3. Find Lunar Home Accents

For a witchy look that doesn’t scream “Happy Halloween,” lunar themes are the perfect option. Look for moon wall art, throw blankets, and tabletop decor. For a witchy bedroom, deck your bed with lunar bedsheets and pillows for a mystical night’s sleep.
4. Showcase Your Crystal Collection

Shiny crystals add extra sparkle and mystical flair to Halloween decorations and year-round witchy home decor. Accent your plants, candle scapes, and windowsills with crystals and shimmering rocks, or build a crystal collection for a magical centerpiece.
5. Go All-Out With Candles

Whether you’re lighting up your witchy decorations for Halloween or enjoying spellbinding ambiance on a cold February evening, candles are essential. Build ornate candle scapes with pillars of varying heights and add candles to every surface of your home—a witch can never have too many candles. If you’re worried about a fire hazard, choose timed LED candles that automatically illuminate your lair when the sun goes down.
6. Add Year-Round Witch Yard Decorations

To give off a year-round mystical vibe, decorate your outdoor space with everything witchy and kitschy. Incorporate elements like gazing balls, gargoyles, garden gnomes, and polished stones. Light up the space at night with color-changing LED orbs, antique-style lanterns, and twinkle lights for extra enchantment.
7. Enclose Your Yard With an Antique-Style Wrought-Iron Fence

A wrought-iron fence has a classic style with an extra touch of “don’t go into the witch’s house.” When paired with your witchy decor and garden accents, they add a hefty dose of dark, dramatic effect. If you’re interested in the style, get in touch with a local wrought-iron fence installer to learn more about your options.
8. Grow a Jewel-Toned Garden

Lush jewel-toned garden plants are a true gem for witchy outdoor spaces. Fill your garden with flowers in semi-precious hues such as amber, amethyst, ruby, and sapphire. Add dark emerald greenery to fill in gaps and add extra contrast. Don’t forget the witchy garden accents like lawn ornaments, orbs, and large pieces of quartz.
9. Feature a Witch Outdoor Decoration for Halloween

Double, double, toil, and trouble: If you want to stick to Halloween traditions, a witch display is the perfect focal point for your festive yard. Find life-sized spooky witches and animatronics for an extra-scary and bewitching yard display. If you prefer something more subtle, look for a witch-themed yard sign, a witchy wreath, brooms, cauldrons, and other similar accessories.
