Use Ivories, Blacks and Whites. Who says that every piece of decoration that you own for Halloween has to be black and orange? An ivory pumpkin still screams Halloween yet still fits with the decor of your home. Paint your pumpkins in this “bone” color to show off your style this season. You can also place pumpkins on your front steps in alternating black and ivory. Nothing screams sophisticated scares like this!

Weave A Tangled Web: The traditional spider web can still be used in your beautifully bewitched halloween decor. The trick is to place and space the webs correctly. Avoid just throwing the webs over the bushes in your front lawn. Have the webs hang from the top of your door down your step railing or front bush. Make sure its pulled apart thinly. This will make the web look more genuine.
These tips will keep your home from falling victim to the usually and sometimes tacky decor of this scary season. So go ahead and decorate in the unconventional, yet sophisticated way this Halloween.
