When was the last time you had a good decluttering day?  You know what I mean, one of those days when you just go throw those piles of “junk” you’ve had laying around and finally throw stuff out.  Or maybe cleaning out a closet that’s been neglected for some time.  No matter how organized you consider yourself to be, we all have junk spots in our home, and we all tend to keep things that most people would consider junk.

This post is devoted to 21 things that most of have in our households and are keeping for one reason or another.  Maybe it’s an emotional connection, or maybe you just haven’t thought twice about getting rid of it.  Either way, we want to know, what would you add to this list?

Garage Door Halloween Decorations

This Garage Door Halloween Decoration project is such a fun way to make a big Halloween statement without needing to decorate the whole yard. Instead of a small wreath or porch sign, this idea turns the entire garage door into a spooky silhouette scene, complete with witches, pumpkins, trees, cats, and creepy Halloween shapes.

I really like this one because it has huge visual impact from the street. The black silhouettes against the pale garage door make the design easy to see, even from a distance, and it gives the whole house that haunted Halloween feel without being too gory or scary. It is perfect for families who want something dramatic but still fun for trick-or-treaters.

This is also a great project if you enjoy cutting your own shapes from cardboard, poster board, foam board, or lightweight plastic sheets. You could keep the design simple with just bats and pumpkins, or go all out with witches, trees, ghosts, black cats, and cauldrons. Add a few outdoor spotlights or battery lights nearby and it would look amazing at night.

What makes this project especially clever is that the garage door becomes the backdrop, so you do not need a lot of expensive supplies to fill a large space. It is bold, budget-friendly, and very customizable.
