2013 Easy and Quick Indoor Halloween Decorating Ideas

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Even with just a few days till October 31, it's not too late to decorate. Pumpkins from the grocery store, leaves from the backyard and a few things around the house can transform a table or mantel into Halloween central.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="450" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipaSJaxauafKRahvElStPCSGg3_hpAp434pEJziXtVpmXzLyrUss4sn5x2rRlzZ83zCP4OL14DrIwPAv-MkvEF9fXoZ7Lqpx3vbJan8bvbJG1v1D23ifaWRIDG-PbdRIo4p9O7Hb_oqJk/s640/2013-Easy-and-Quick-Indoor-Halloween-Decorating-Ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><b><span style="color: orange;">Family Portrait in Pumpkins Forget carving. </span></b><br /><br />Forget covering the whole pumpkin with paint. Just add a circle of leftover chalkboard paint to one side of each pumpkin and draw on some funny faces (anyone you know come to mind?). Do the family, a group of friends, your pets or even Mr. Jack-o'-Lantern himself.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="450" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-TG0AHBgU1lxq_Zjxm5nEGatDaPBS5Ou2wspexZ87VHwFieahNEeKVugQDXvlKNV6rvPxe5y4qy459SAhTpQ2peL3rPxFNSLM_I9ShDvOy_nWroHhy0CxR6XhopS2vAANbd7jT3qJvVo/s640/2013-Easy-and-Quick-Indoor-Halloween-Decorating-Ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><span style="color: orange;"><b>To make your own pumpkin family portrait: </b></span><br /><br />1. Select pumpkins in a variety of shapes. Look for smooth sides without too many blemishes or deep ridges. Wash and dry your pumpkins thoroughly.<br /><br />2. Paint chalkboard circles with a paintbrush an inch or so wide. Apply at least three coats of paint, allowing the paint to dry completely between each coat.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="450" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZsnQvv8E75E1lpMbiGOH2Y16Jv96lZwSCEWUrihYDsbN1Gg_yeqmGjRVjuTk5lpqNojelykInsOinGTztCOC3XVD2FHaI1s_WDgMHYayBS5GKWWCmVS0ZercVwXX1IXTOLDTDaSihwlQ/s640/2013-Easy-and-Quick-Indoor-Halloween-Decorating-Ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><br />3. Rough up the end of a piece of chalk before drawing on the pumpkin. The square edges of a fresh piece of chalk can scrape off the chalkboard paint. If this happens, just touch up the scuff with more paint.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="450" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKymvjoxFDxUDWT15QZ70hL-BqExqSBeDZQajKZXrDawmXCskW600hMo330ZKkbKA5Y4Yd81l823n0gKbEM-uP1PWZt8FHmZWyYoZ6fT9iHiI6Q1y5oX9iIZl5_0GI671j66mAl5Izyqk/s640/2013-Easy-and-Quick-Indoor-Halloween-Decorating-Ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><br />4. Erase any goofs or smudges with a damp paper towel. You can also completely erase your faces and try different people, hairdos and expressions.<br /><br />5. Finish off your scene with grocery store mums and a vase of twigs and leaves, and candles if you like. (Don't leave candles unattended, and be sure to keep wicks well away from leaves.)<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="508" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnaon0DBEypFIrvm_3o3CGzpJwhXb2z_d4gQcj0URyvklmwi-u5MeiWPexG3WR0krepuGe4VymEORQ8X3cWkS8mgP_IoWhEKfwpy_eH5dXtQlbFWUazGbSFlOql4IoD-bzvANsYLuZztM/s640/2013-Easy-and-Quick-Indoor-Halloween-Decorating-Ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghahaGV_KqBQf_LUfeVF6pCdPB1T0miT8oWhY_LxVFlyIxZ0ct0ycyNYsEwg2p_ZRtiFxPK5zS-cNNGFO6osnIGlROwcQfVq8NAuyQe0dyXnXz5Yk1A1j98djSsShCCulRngYyj18Sbgw/s640/2013-Easy-and-Quick-Indoor-Halloween-Decorating-Ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /></div>
