Creative Coloring Ideas:
• Here are five specific coloring ideas for the Haunted House:
• Moonlit Night: Color the moon a soft gray-blue, and use dark navy blue for the night sky around it. The house itself can be colored in a warm beige color to contrast against the cool tones of the sky.
• Spooky Pumpkin Patch: Use shades of orange and yellow to create the pumpkins scattered around the yard. A deep green would work well for the grass, while the fence could be a weathered brown to add texture.
• Haunted House at Dusk: Color the house in a rich, dark red-brown shade reminiscent of old wood, with lighter shades of gray and beige on the windowsills and door trim. The sky can be a soft pinkish-gray as it transitions from day to night.
• Mysterious Forest: Use deep greens for the trees surrounding the house, with lighter shades of green or yellow on their leaves. The roof of the house could be colored in a darker brown to blend with the forest environment.
