Halloween Haunted House


  Great yard decor for trick-or-treaters! I bought a cheap child's playhouse online for $25, took it apart and spray painted using only Fusion Gloss Black and Fusion Gloss Brown.

What you need:

  • (5) can Krylon Fusion Gloss Black
  • (3) can Krylon Fusion Gloss Brown
  • Webbing material
  • Thumbtacks
  • Plastic spiders
  • Plastic skeleton
  • "Keep Out" sign

How and How Long:

  1. Spray paint the entire inside of the house black and let dry. Then, I painted the outside. I used 2-3 coats, but painting the inside is optional. I used about 5-6 cans.
  2. Spray paint the roof, shudders, and door, gloss brown. Let dry completely in between coats. I used about 3-4 cans.
  3. Adhere the webbing to the roof. I bought the webbing from a local retail store.
  4. Add the spiders and skeleton.
  5. I plan to add strobe lights and a smoke machine for Halloween night!

Approximate project time: 1 day.


What it Costs:

Cost is $40 for eight cans of spray paint and about $40 for additional supplies.
