Spooky Cute Halloween Bookshelf Ideas
Spooky season is here and Halloween is one of my favorite holidays! This year it’s extra special because our daughter Rowan will be celebrating her first Halloween! I couldn’t wait to get started on transforming her and Ryder’s bookshelves with a spooky cute makeover and I love the way they turned out!
For Rowan’s bookshelves I wanted a softer color palette while still feeling Halloween. Black, pink, lavender, and white achieved that effect while remaining girly! I added paper bats to the sides for a dramatic effect. I love these and use them all over my house for Halloween. They are cheap too and can be reused! The “Hey Boo” and matching pumpkin garland was a lucky find at TJ Maxx but Etsy has a ton of similar styles as well! Since most of the Halloween books were used in Ryder’s room, which you’ll see later in this post, I added a little Hocus Pocus pennant flag and a black cat board book for extra filler. To make her little reading corner feel cozy, I added a super soft ghost pillow and light up pink pumpkin. Obviously Rowan is way too young to utilize this, but I wanted to get these items while I could so that I will have them for years to come when she is old enough to use and appreciate them!
For Ryder’s room, I wanted the traditional black and orange color scheme, so I swapped out his regular books for all the Halloween ones we have acquired over the years. I added a simple pumpkin garland as well as the bats to complete the look! To add some coziness for reading, I added a soft jack-o-lantern pillow for his bed and cute little decorative accents like the polka dot pumpkin and ghost faux succulent. Both her ghost pillow and his pumpkin pillow were found at TJ Maxx. Overall these looks are both super simple to recreate and make Halloween, as well as reading, more fun for the kids!
