To layer textures effectively in Halloween door decorations, start with one main element like a wreath or lantern as your base. Add materials like soft gauze overlays, natural twigs, and moss to build depth and intrigue. Combine tactile fabrics with hard botanicals for contrast. Varying texture keeps the look lively and inviting, avoiding clutter or chaos. Use reusable layered pieces so you can change or add elements each season. This approach creates a visually rich, story-telling entry that feels thoughtfully curated.
