One of the best parts about decorating your home for Halloween is making it unique. While there are many fancy looking decor choices at the store, some of the best setups are creatively made from items you can find around your home. If you’re looking for a fun craft for this Halloween, make your home glow with one of these Halloween luminary DIYs. They’re sure to make a statement and help you stand out from all the other homes on the block.

14. Colorful Skull Luminaries

Bring some color into your design by painting some mason jars.
15. Jack-O-Lantern Luminaries

The less paint you use, the brighter your mason jars will shine.
16. Plastic Cup Lanterns

Be sure to hold onto those plastic cups and re-purpose them as monster lights.
17. Colorful Milk Jug Luminaries

If the jug luminaries pictured before weren’t quite festive enough, try using multi-colored lights!

Try placing these pumpkin mason jars in your window to provide ambiance to the interior and exterior of your home.
