I came across this incredible little creation while browsing our Pintrest (which has heaps more Halloween ideas to check out!). The candy corn works so well to get that creepy Halloween feeling, and the simple combination of black and orange is very effective.

These mini houses would be even simpler to make - and our mini M&M's applied with orange icing as the adhesive would be perfect to make decorating easy.
