Haunting Home Decor

No doorstep is complete without a gourd-gess pumpkin on display! From 3D glittering cardstock bats to traditional vinyled jack-o’-lantern designs, Cricut’s smart technology makes it easy to choose, cut, and create with easily discoverable projects in Design Space.

We love painted pumpkins and the Trick Or Treat sign made of vinyl cricut is the perfect touch. Or these cut out bats which are super trendy right now! They can be used on pumpkins or in your house to dress up a wall.
