Using Halloween Lights and Flashes of Color to Elevate your Home’s Halloween Appeal

It’s all about presentation when it comes to presenting a Halloween home or a haunted house. Learning how to use flashes of color and strategic lighting is equally important as to the centerpieces and complementary décor you choose. There are many homeowners who consider lights to be the ultimate determinant as to how spooky Halloween decorations really end up becoming. Believe us when we say that it makes such a difference, analyzing haunted house decorations with and without light.

 

As one of Canada’s top eCommerce stores for Halloween party supplies, Halloween costumes, and Halloween décor, Living.ca has everything you need to have the ultimate holiday. When shopping for your decorations, keep in mind lighting. When used right, lighting should guide the eye. Lighting is meant to take the eye away from the less important of a home’s layout and towards what you want them to see. The same can be said for color. Remember, darker colors can help keep things in the foreground. In the meantime, light colors naturally attract one’s attention. For these reasons, use of lighting and color placement maintains a strong place in our Halloween décor priority list.

 

If you’re looking to do the whole ‘haunted house’ game right, it’s important to plan ahead. Take a pen and a piece of paper, and map out what your intention. Thankfully, there’s still plenty of time to do so. Find the right lights you want. In many cases, all you may need is string lights. These can be used in more festive ways or for the spook. It all depends on what vibes you’re going for. Creating a haunting effect for Halloween can take some time but it is well worth the trial and error. Please feel encouraged to browse the Living.ca catalogue for more ideas in how to use lights and color to emphasize different elements of your haunted house.
