Today I am sharing this super easy Jack Skellington door idea.
I love dressing up our home and being a little bit silly for Halloween! This Jack Skellington Door is a perfectly simple way to do that. With my free printable it is fun and easy to create!
I am always looking for ways to decorate my front porch for the holidays. Having a white door makes the perfect backdrop all year long and I often switch it up by hanging a wreath for every season!
This year I decided to change it up with this super quick and easy DIY. Jack Skellington is such an iconic character for Halloween and one that is showcased perfectly on a white front door! We’ve made a Mason Jar Jack Skellington Craft, these Jack Skellington Magnets and yummy Jack Skellington Oreo Cookie Pops in the past too.
Here’s how to make your own Jack Skellington door:
Materials for this project (affiliate links):
1. Begin by printing the free Jack Skellington Door Template (linked below). Cut out the shapes and trace them onto black card stock. Cut out the black features.
2. Use the black electrical tape to fasten the eyes and nose to the door. I loop the tape back onto itself, creating a double sided tape circle. Using the black tape means that it won’t easily be seen behind the black features.
3. Next create a mouth shape using the black electrical tape. Use the entire width of your door and slightly curve the tape upwards.
4. Layer different lengths of tape to widen the mouth. More tape in the center of the mouth and keeping it tapered at the ends.
5. Finally, use small strips of tape to complete the smile. Attach 1.5″ pieces of tape, 2″ apart along the top and bottom of the smile.
Now that the smile is finished, your Jack Skellington Door is complete!
