I’m so enjoying this touch of fall in my newly painted and decorated dining room!
The traditional fall colors just wouldn’t feel right in this space, so I broke out my white ceramic pumpkin I bought at Target several years ago, and a spray-painted dollar store pumpkin I shared last fall. I added in some silk ivy on my silver footed tray and the French sheet music candles I made for Valentine’s Day. The vellum has a beautiful warm creamy patina, so they were the perfect cozy touch.
But the piece de resistance is my mirrored pumpkin…
And it all started with a $4.50 glass pumpkin jar from WalMart…
and a can of Krylon Looking Glass spray paint.
That’s it!
I did spray one coat on the inside of the pumpkin and the underside of the lid. Once that dried I sprayed two coats to the outside of each piece.
Done.
See? Easy peasy. 🙂 This one’s a keeper. Don’t be surprised if it turns up again down the road!
What kind of pumpkins are you using in your fall decor?
hey Heidi- I just love these pumpkins. heading to walmart to get some supplies!

Heidi,
I just made this project, too! Once you start using that spray you can’t stop! Love your styling and your photography!
Have a great day rock star!
