My Experience and Favorite Halloween Tree Style
Last year, I created a Witch-themed Halloween Tree, which was a huge hit! I used a black 5-foot tree and decorated it with mini broomsticks, witch hats, crystal balls, and orange string lights. I finished it with a crooked tiny hat and wrapped the base with purple tulle. Trick-or-treaters were obsessed, so I left it up until Thanksgiving!
