How to Make a Halloween Door
For Halloween, there are many things you can do to decorate your door, such as hanging a candy or fall-themed wreath, covering it with a fake spider web or paper cut-outs of body parts, or hanging a Halloween door cover purchased from a store. Alternatively, you can make the front of the door look like a jack-o-lantern. Does this Spark an idea?

Cover the door in orange wrapping paper, using double sided tape to hold it in place.

Draw three triangles and an open mouth with missing teeth on black construction paper. They can be any size you like, but cut the triangles so they are all the same size and are in proportion to the mouth. Also, make them big enough that they can be seen from the street. Use a ruler on the triangles to create straight lines.
