5. Haunted Paper Lanterns
Cast a warm, eerie glow over your porch or mantelpiece with custom-designed paper lanterns. Using sturdy watercolor paper or cardstock, cut out intricate windows depicting spooky scenes—think a lonely graveyard, a soaring owl, or a creepy hand reaching from the ground. Line the inside of the lantern with translucent vellum paper colored in shades of amber, deep purple, or blood orange. When you place a flicker-flame LED tea light inside, the vellum diffuses the light, bringing the silhouette scenes to life with a soft, haunting radiance. Arrange them in clusters of three at different heights to create a captivating focal point on your entryway table.
