We all have one in the back of our closet, down in the underneath a pile of dust in the attic: a box of old Halloween decorations that we just don't know what to do. Not wanting to throw it out, but also at a loss as to how it could all be used. You can easily turn up all types of old and new decorations into an ideal addition to your Halloween inside and outside décor. Coming to Halloween tea-light holders, use these in your outdoor haunted graveyard or jack-o-lantern light show. Buy a big bag of tea lights for just a few dollars and have a lit attraction when the sun goes down at night times. Also use the candle holders indoors and scatter them throughout your Halloween village collection to make it come alive at night; put the candle holders in the windows next to your Halloween window decorations or jack-o-lantern and line the staircase with sugar pumpkins and these small candles.

Small Halloween knick-knacks and figurines point out that boy these can sure add up throughout the years. But they are very perfect in adding up to your Halloween village collection on a bookshelf or end table, or for creating a village on their own. If you're throwing a Halloween party or dinner party, to be placed by each person's napkin, place card, or set by the taper candles and put within the centerpieces, Halloween knick-knacks can also be used. Bring some of the figurines to the office and place them on your monitor if you are in need of Halloween atmosphere while working. Considering the old costumes, they still look great, but they don't fit and no one needs to borrow them for a party. Create dummies to dress in the costumes on the front porch, safeguarding the candy bowl at your trick-or-treat station. Use the costumes according to the characters for your own haunted attraction otherwise.

Taking old Trick-or-Treat bags and window decorations into account, plastic or paper treat bags and window decorations are great for making Halloween cards and invitations. Cut out the pictures and paste onto a blank card for inviting friends to your obsessed attraction or Halloween party. You can also make refrigerator magnets out of the cut-outs, or use as place cards or prizes in a grab bag at your Halloween party. Next here come the Autumn-themed cloth napkins and placemats: If these have started piling up with each Halloween, use them as a base for your centerpieces of candles, pumpkins and Halloween figurines on your dining room table and end tables. They can also be draped across the top of the television or bookshelf, and put on the front porch as a base for your jack-o-lanterns and candy bowls.

Halloween ribbons: Orange, black and other Halloween-themed ribbons can dole out for various purposes. Then tie them around the rolled up Halloween invitations that you've made on your computer to give it to friends and family. Then wrap them around pumpkins you've positioned in both inside and outside the house. Finally drape them in flower arrangements for your Halloween party. Tie them to the fence around your jack-o-lantern light show or to the trees surrounding your scarecrow show. So don't leave that box of old Halloween decorations in the closet, basement or attic anymore… but dig it out and put some finishing touches on all your Halloween arrangements, props as well as disturbed attractions you'll be putting on this season.
