Halloween is fast becoming the most popular holiday in the country, currently second only to Christmas, and the holiday actually outranks Christmas in terms of money spent on decorations, food, and drink (the reigning champion of holiday party spending is, and likely always will be, New Year's, but Halloween is a strong second!). So if you're looking for exciting Halloween beading projects to "spookify" things in the next October 31, then keep reading and we'll explain five fun Halloween beading projects you can try! Or, if you're going down the path of selling the fruits of your bead craft labor, you will find a large and waiting market for the designs you create!

1 - Jack o'Lanterns - The classic, beadwork style! You can use seed beads of several hues of oranges and yellows (on a black setting if you're looking to have something larger), to hang on the mantle or as a dressing to the porch railing. Involve the kids by having them plan out the faces!

2 - Black Cats - A simple cat silhouette can be the basis for a pattern (all black seed beads, or black mixed with a smattering of silver for dramatic effect), with the option of using larger beads for the eyes. These can be kept fairly simple or can become a dramatically more intricate beading project, but even the simplest designs can make quite a dramatic statement!

3 - Witches - You could do a simple bust pattern or a full figure representation of a witch on a broomstick, depending on your overall skill level. These are fun to make, and make excellent decorations, but tend to be more involved compared to either of the projects mentioned earlier.

4 - Dangling Skeletons - Obviously the most complex of the projects mentioned here, these can be made of any size you wish, but obviously smaller is better from a "time to complete" perspective. If you don't want to worry over creating an actual skeletal design, you can weave a skeletal outline onto a black background, like, the size of a square drink coaster and still have a beautiful piece to decorate with!

5 - Candy Corns - These aren't spooky, but certainly go with the season, and are most fun when crafted as 3-dimensional shapes. I would not recommend going much beyond two inches high, or they'll take very long time to finish, but due to their relatively simple design, this is another project that's great to involve the kids in!

As you can see based on the five ideas above, there are all kinds of interesting holiday beading projects you can push your teeth into, and this list just barely scratches the surface of the beading projects out there, so whether you plan to use them to decorate your own home, or sell what you produce, it's time to get crafting!
