If your family, like mine, are big Stranger Things fans, channel the creepiness to inspire your Halloween party! I worked with Family Circle to create ST-themed crafts and decorations like the Upside Down portal (below), '80s photo wall and an Eggo buffet (essential)! Click here for the buffet details and here for the string lights wall.

I used black camouflage netting, branches from my backyard, and a snow projector to create the Upside Down “snow”! More how-to details here.

Removable Glue Dots are the key to making this fun 80’s backdrop! More details here. This 80’s shower curtain would make an easy pre-made backdrop option!

If you’ll be watching the show at your party, make some custom bingo cards! You can Stranger-Things-ify your type at makeitstranger.com!! And Pez candies for markers, from your Stranger Things Pez dispensers, of course!

Use makeitstranger.com to make a Welcome Strangers sign for your door! I had it printed at a copy shop (where you could have it printed as a weatherproof banner if you like)! Wrap your door in caution tape to warn guests of the spookiness that awaits!
Happy, Strange, Halloween!!!
