We are all used to see carved, drilled and painted pumpkins in various colors but floral ones? This is something unusual! Make a bold floral one for unique decor, for a girlish space and for sweet and subtle touches to your home decor. Let’s take a look at some tutorials!
Halloween isn’t far, and it’s time to make some bright decor for it. Here’s an idea – a black flower pumpkin – a mix of pretty and spooky! The contrast of a white pumpkin with black flowers would look neat, and it was a fun way to give some dollar store flowers a Halloween makeover. You can always cover the flowers more thoroughly with a few coats of spray paint if you prefer them to be completely black. If not – use the existing ones reading the tutorial!

Here’s another Halloween pumpkin, so beautiful and so chic! This one is the perfect mix of sweet and spooky! A crescent moon would fit right in if you’re into spooky Halloween decor but the fresh flowers make things pretty & sweet if you try to stay away from the spooky stuff. Moons, stars and planets are very popular for galaxy-inspired decor now. It would also be a perfect centerpiece for your Halloween table spread if you’re planning a get together this year and it takes just a few minutes to put together!

Having trouble transitioning to fall? Set aside an afternoon to sip hard cider and paint cheerful floral pumpkins with your friends. Take some faux pumpkin halves that can easily be hung on a door or wall in place of a wreath, but you can recreate this look just as easily on real pumpkins you pick from the patch. This is a great project for those who love painting – use a pumpkin as your canvas.
