Pumpkins on Parade



Who says pumpkins and Autumn decorating have to be all oranges and reds?

Not this girl!

Nothing says "fall" quite like a traditional, well shaped orange pumpkin, but whether bright orange doesn't compliment your home decor, or you're just in the mood to try something different, there's a plethora of options in colored pumpkins: blue, white, yellow, green...or paint them any color you want!

Here's a round up of ideas to get started!

Try a little gilded gold spray paint or rub n buff to your orange or faux pumpkins and gourds for some added glimmer.




Blue pumpkins are everywhere this year.  I bought a lovely one at Wal-mart for a few bucks and couldn't be happier.




Of course creamy whites, soft blues, and rustic browns are classic and can look very warm and inviting - just remember to add lots of texture! 

 Mix in a little green if you're trying to hold onto summer a bit longer.






And even if you do love the look of traditional orange pumpkins and earthy fall foliage, consider adding some beautiful deep porcelain blue to your decor palette anyway.
Remember, blue and orange are complimentary colors, so you pretty much can't go wrong!






Looking for something even more unusual in your fall decor this year?  Did you know pumpkins actually come in pink?  Like, for reals.  And if you can't find them at your local pumpkin farm or superstore, remember craft paint can be your best friend!





Happy Fall, y'all!
