If you have a large window with a sturdy sill, no worries! A whole collection of pumpkins and gourds can fit there. Tanned or natural, hilarious or frightening, cucurbits plants dominate. You can also try making some out of papier-mâché with your children.

Self-adhesive spider figures and toothless black pumpkin stickers are the obligatory addition. With this idea, elegance dominates if you are not a fan of skeletons and witches.

Apart from black and orange, there is still one favored color during Halloween: purple. Plus, it combines ideally with black. Look at the little witch contemplating her work: a Halloween window decoration.

The castle haunted by ghosts and inhabited by wicked witches stuck to the window is like something out of your nightmares. Moreover, this decoration is measured, simple, but quite evocative.
