Halloween decorations don't have to be scary — or messy. Instead of hacking a jack-o'-lantern face on a pumpkin, you can cover one with gorgeous succulents. Or simply draw your jack-o'-lantern on an orange balloon, adding girlie eyelashes while you're at it. For ideas like this, we tapped DIY expert Erica Domesek, author and founder of the website P.S. — I Made This..., for her creative take on Halloween crafts. Together, POPSUGAR editors and Erica collaborated on these four stylish and nontraditional projects that will elevate your festive October decor.
