5. Felt Ghost Pillow
A felt ghost pillow is a fun way to bring Halloween coziness into a living room or reading nook. It’s softer, more decorative than a traditional Halloween pillow, and feels handmade in the best way.
Cut two large ghost shapes from white felt — about 14 to 16 inches tall. Stitch them together around the edges, leaving a small opening. Stuff firmly with fiberfill, then stitch the opening closed. Embroider or glue on two simple eyes and a small mouth.
If you want a more polished look, consider backing the pillow with a contrasting fabric like black linen or muted plaid flannel. You can also add small stitched details like tiny stars, moons, or a single letter on the front.
This pillow looks especially charming on a bench, a reading chair, or piled among other neutral pillows on a sofa. It’s also a thoughtful handmade gift for the Halloween-loving friend in your life.
