Dressing Up Your Kegerator For Halloween

As Halloween approaches, you may be wondering what type of costume to purchase for your kids so they can hit the streets as cool or scary creatures, ready to load up on as much candy as possible. You may even be trying to figure out what works as a costume for a full grown adult - one that is tasteful enough to not get you thrown out of your neighborhood Halloween party, but that makes everyone take a look and say "wow, that's a pretty creative costume!"

If your house is the gathering spot for this year's Halloween festivities, don't forget to dress up your kegerator, too! No reason to leave this party favorite out of the loop when it comes to this all important costume-laden holiday!

Dress up my kegerator? You may ask. How do I do that? And why? Well, there are a number of ways you can make your kegerator the life of your next party. Aside from the fact that a kegerator is the sole source of beer and is therefore every party goers friend, the device itself can take center stage at your next Halloween party simply by donning an interesting wrap around it or draping a costume over it.

No kidding - there are actually companies that make cool and spooky wraps specifically to wrap around kegerators. One such company is Craigerator. They take boring 'ol looking kegerators and turn them into works of art or conversation pieces by simply covering them with an artistically enhanced piece of vinyl. They're not the only ones who can do this. Just about any graphics company or sign shop that creates artwork on vinyl can create a specially designed "costume" for your in home kegerator. You know how you see cars and trucks out on the road that are wrapped in vinyl graphics? It's the same exact concept that is used to dress up your kegerator.

You don't have to just make your kegerator look spiffy only when Halloween rolls around. You can customize this special device so that it always looks good when sitting in your home bar, family room, or basement. Rather than simply having a plain looking black, white or stainless steel kegerator sitting in the corner of the room, you can make your beer dispensing machine into a "super kegerator" - one that looks cool, sets the stage for the room's design, or simply makes you laugh or smile each time you look at it.

Aside from vinyl kegerator wraps, there are other ways you can also add some interest to your kegerator to keep with the Halloween spirit. Cover the outside of the kegerator with some spiders or drape it with some cobwebs. You can even make the body of the kegerator fridge look like Frankenstein's body (or another scary creature) and then set a head on top of it to complete the look. Wrap festive orange and black trim around the kegerator tap, or you can even use those funny stick-on face features that kids love to put on the fridge or a window to turn your ho-hum beer fridge into a Halloween kegerator centerpiece.

Dressing up your kegerator, whether for Halloween, or another holiday like Christmas, St. Patricks Day or 4th of July is all about adding to the "fun factor" of your next celebration. After all, everyone loves to gather round the beer tap when the party is in full swing, so shouldn't the kegerator be decorated to add to the festive spirit?
