Try a non-traditional fall look for your home with these painted DIY Boho Chic Painted Pumpkins. Ceramic pink painted pumpkins add the perfect pop of color too! For more pumpkin ideas see my Fall + Thanksgiving page.
I changed the look of my home decor last year. After much searching into what exact decor I liked, I decided to change all of my home decor to modern bohemian.
Well, this year when I pulled out my fall and Halloween decor, the traditional black and orange colors just didn’t look right anymore with my vibrant colored accessories.
I teamed up with Oriental Trading for my previous post the Black and Gold Halloween Entryway and then again today for these ceramic painted pumpkins! I took one of their pumpkin sets and painted bright colors to match my boho decor!
Pretty much anything goes these days with pumpkins. The bright and deep gem tones of the 80’s made their way into the stores this year. So I decided to go with that!
These pumpkins go so great with my pillows and wall art. If you want something a little less traditional in your decor, these are a perfect choice. They were super simple to make. Here’s how I made them
How to make ceramic Painted Pumpkins
Supplies:
- DIY Decorative Pumpkin Set
- Acrylic Paint: Bright Magenta, Bluegrass Green, Black
- Gold Liquid Gilding
- Gloves
- Paintbrushes
Instructions:
Paint the pumpkins with acrylic paint. Do not paint the stems. Let them dry.
In a ventilated space and wearing gloves, paint the small pumpkin and stems carefully with the liquid gold gilding. Follow the gilding directions carefully. Gilding can be toxic so make sure to open a window or use it outdoors. Let it dry and that’s it!
This is such a simple project. I think the pumpkins add the perfect pop of color to add to any room for nontraditional fall decor.
Did ya notice that spooky Venus Flytrap Potted Plant? You can find that at Oriental Trading too!
Another way to take these pumpkins to a new level is with paint pens! Either way, they pop my decor!

These are so fun and colorful. I love how more and more color is being incorporated into fall. Will be featuring this tonight.
I’m in love with these beautiful pumpkins!! #merrymonday
Love them painted with the gold stems!
FYI- a teal painted pumpkin is a sign for kids with food allergies that you have allergy-friendly or non-food treats to hand out… the food allergy world uses it to raise awareness about food allergies. So you might want to pick up some glow sticks to pass out on Halloween too ;)
Hi Cami,
I thought about mentioning the allergy-friendly Teal Pumpkin in the article, but since it is a sponsored post I didn’t want to compete with that. I did share a teal pumpkin post on FB talking about that very thing~ What a great way to make kids feel safe on Halloween.
