This kind of display is increasingly popular because it adds a new twist to the look and feel of Halloween. Not only are purple, green and orange light wrapped trees a unique Halloween decorating idea, but Trick or Treaters will love the colorful glow!

3 Spooky Halloween Lighted Branch Decorations

Our Halloween lighted branch decorations include a glowing spider, an enchanted eyeball bowl and spooky trees! We used a 3pc green starburst lighted branch to make these fun DIY Halloween decorations. The 3pc lighted branches are connected, so you can either make 3 of the same design or each one can be different to create a fun tabletop, mantle or outdoor display! Check out our lighted branch decorating ideas for more fun DIY projects like this one!

To Make Starburst Spider Decorations

  1. For this DIY lighted branch project, you'll need a 9-12 inch tinsel spider or other spider decoration.
  2. Place your starburst stem down
  3. Separate the lighted branches equally with half on the left and half on the right of the stem
  4. Bend each branch into a long Z shape to form "legs". The "foot" of each leg should touch the ground and be even with the other legs.
  5. Bend inward or remove the legs from your tinsel spider (don't worry, your spider will love his fancy new legs!)
  6. Place the spider body on top of the legs
  7. Turn on your starburst spider and place it with other spooky decorations to create a creepy crawly scene!

To Make An Enchanted Eyeball Bowl

For our eyeball bowl we used a stretchy spider web, plastic eyeballs and plastic spiders.

  1. With the stem facing up, pull 8 of the branches down toward the center, opposite of the stem.
  2. Arrange these 8 branches evenly in a circle and then bend the ends to form an L shape. Make sure that each end is even so that they rest flat on the ground.
  3. Bend the remaining branches out and up. The stem should be in the center with the lighted branches forming curved L shapes around it.
  4. When your bowl shape is complete, stretch the spider web material around it and then fill the bowl with eyeballs, spiders or any other spooky decorations you like!

To Make Spooky Trees

You'll need small 6 x 5 inch planters, floral foam cylinders, ribbon, and moss, stones or glass gems for this DIY lighted branch project.

  1. Hold the starburst stem in your hand and pull 4 of the lighted branches straight down around the stem. Wrap the stem and branches about halfway down with a dark colored ribbon
  2. Twist and bend the remaining branches to create the spooky branches of the tree, spreading them out a little as you go
  3. Fill the plastic planter with floral foam
  4. Stick the unwrapped portion of the straight branches into the floral foam until you reach the stem. The stem should not go into the floral foam.
  5. Cover the top of the foam with moss, glass gems or small stones
  6. Place your potted trees along a walkway or with other decorations as part of a larger Halloween display
