Perhaps you've worked at a nearby In-N-Out back in the day. Turn your cubicle into a fast food drive-thru window. Poke fun at a rival or show off your first job. The cubicle cabin can have all the trimmings: sled, string lights, trees, stars, and even snow.Īnd, of course, you could also go on a beach vacation right there in your cubicle with tiki torches, inflatable coconut trees, and straw walls. A cabin in the woods somewhere in snowy Aspen can be just the thing to inspire you at work today. This year, get into the Halloween spirit by displaying the place you'd rather be than at your desk. And for the pièce de résistance, add a replica of your boss' or office best friend's head in a jar. They often have plastic tubing that can be coiled, extended, and wrapped from one beaker to another.Įasy and practical, food coloring and water may make bottles seem like they contain a dangerous poison that can dissolve flesh. The plumbing supply aisle at your local hardware shop may have just what you need. You can get Petri dishes and droppers for very little money. Toy stores with a focus on science supplies are another viable option.

You can get vials that seem like they were made for a mad scientist's experiments from the dollar store. Sometimes you can find real gems in dollar stores or thrift shops. Low-priced lab supplies are also available.
Halloween desk decor free#
Feel free to use common kitchen tools, such as mixers, stirrers, thermometers, timers, and measuring cups. Ordinary bottles and vases may double as reagent containers in a pinch. One Halloween desk decor to try is turning your desk into a scary lab to amuse your coworkers. Use yellow caution tape to enclose any signs of a "fight," reducing the risk of someone treading over "evidence." It's also possible to purchase fake shattered glass to scatter throughout your cubicle. The overturned furniture and the desk light on the floor are telltale signs of a "conflict." Place some objects from a desk on the floor around your workstation or open desk drawers and hang clothes over the side. You obviously don't want to damage any workplace property, but fake indications of a fight are simple to make. But if good ol' chalk is acceptable, save money by drawing a colleague's outline on the carpet. If you have carpeting in the office, you may want to use masking tape or chalk outline stickers if you can find some online. It's simple to create your own using thick paper and arranging them around "signs of struggle" or a chalk outline of a "body."Ī "murder scene" requires a chalk outline. Get things rolling with some "evidence markers." Those bright yellow numbered markings used to point to discovered evidence are likely already familiar to you.
