spooky DIY Halloween light -

Here comes a super easy upcycling DIY for fall. I’m a huge Halloween fan and every year I can’t what until summer is over and the days getting chillier and the leaves starting to fall.

Let’s go.

What you will need:

empty mason jar
clear liquid soap, laundry detergent or dish soap (the liquid can be colored but shouldn’t be dull)
some Halloween decorations (z.B. spiders, pumpkins, skeleton, skull, bats, zombie fingers)
battery-powered LED touch light
fake spider web
perhaps some g low in the dark paint and a paintbrush to paint the jar lid

For my spooky DIY Halloween light I used a glow in the dark skull and put it on the bottom of the mason jar and poured the clear soap over it. After the jar was almost completely filled with the soap I put the second skull on top.

You can also use different objects like spiders, bats, skeleton or zombie finger, whatever you like or may have at home already.

Now just close the jar real tight and wrap some fake spider webs around the glass.

After you are done with the spider web, just place the jar on the LED light.

Tip:

It’s important, no matter what decorations you put in your Halloween light, it should be heavy enough and not filled with air, because it will float up on top of the liquid soap. That’s what happened to me with the skull.

So I put the second pink skull on top of the other skull. I also had put a hole into the skull and filled it with soap, so it won’t float up. (Pic 1)

It’s also important to use the right soap. Like you see in the second picture below, I tried to use a dull pink laundry detergent, but you couldn’t see the spiders through the detergent anymore.

And what do you think? Aren’t these spooky DIY Halloween lights cool?

It’s a really cool Halloween decoration for your home or next Halloween party. You could also fill the jars with different decors and use it for different occasions.

I hope you liked my spooky DIY Halloween lights. Let me know in the comments below which one is your favorite light and maybe you will craft some your one. I would love to see your own creations.

Happy Halloween
