Blood Dripping on Door Decor

Even before your guests walk in your home for the Halloween party, make them feel like they’re going in for a really good time. For this tutorial, you’ll need the following materials:

• Door slips
• Wreath materials
• Tape
• Glue

Door slips are great materials to use for decorating the borders of your doors. With this ready-made material, you can just cut them to the length you want and tack, glue, or tape them in place. Door slips or door sleeves come in a variety of designs –ranging from the perky and pretty, to the gross and macabre. They also come in either cloth or plastic materials.
