I have never decorated outside for Holidays aside from Christmas but 2025 is a different story, it all started because of my hubcap JackOLanter door wreath i created back in 2021! I got the genius idea to transform our small front porch using some store bought items and some homemade items as well. Take a look at how this turned out.
If you ever find a hubcap near a parking lot or at a park take it home clean it up with some soap and water and spray paint it orange!
I took some cardboard and cut out some eyes and mouth with the classic jack-o
’-lantern look I painted them black and glued them to the front of the hubcap.
Note: The orange color spray paint is “Real Orange” from walmart.
For the back of my wreath I measured and cut out a piece of cardstock paper to cover the back side of the hubcap which I also spray painted orange and used hot glue to attach.
Use some greenery to decorate it and make a paper stem using a paper back and paint it brown.
The las thing I added some fairy lights around it simply hot glue the battery pack to the back of the wreath. Find the link below for my favorite fairy lights to use below.

Our outside decor in front of our porch consists of 2 5 foot faux pine trees from Walmart, find the link below.

To add a splash of color I added these small jackolanterns baskets from Dollar tree.
Did you also checked out the pumpkin piece over the large candleholders? It’s a pillow I purchased from Walmart, I love it and it’s a great piece to bring in color. You can find the link for the pillow below.

I love these so much! I found this double stacked ceramic jack o lantern in Walmart in the Halloween section and I placed it on top of a cream candle holder we had and it was the perfect match.
Find the link for the ceramic piece below.

I wanted a classic Halloween decor so i decided to use this purple spider web from Dollar Tree to place in our porch walls.
Funny thing that I didn’t have to use anything to attach the spider web it went on pretty easy over the brick.
Are you liking how this is turning out? Check out the awesome pumpkin rug from Dollar Tree only six dollars! That was a great steal!
I also added some solar fairy lights to my Pine trees that I ordered off from Amazon, you can find the link below.

I am also thinking of getting a black light for a more spooky look at night.
One of my favorite additions will have to be the LED projector I got from Dollar Tree .
