I absolutely love decorating pumpkins! And today, I feel like I can officially start. What do you typically do every year? Maybe this is the year to do something different. Did you know that you can find the faux craft pumpkins in every shape & size? That way, you can bring them out year after year. You know my little budget-loving heart likes that money saving idea. All of these decorating ideas I’m sharing today can be done on either faux pumpkins or real ones. There is no shortage of ideas, so here are 31 Fabulous Pumpkin Decorating Ideas you can do! One for each day of October.
I am loving the gold & white trend. There are so many different ways you can make your pumpkins stand out! Don’t forget, there are a lot of different metallic shades if gold is not your thing.
Black and white is sophisticated and so classic. Give your pumpkins a modern look with card stock, white flowers, lace, ribbon or even spray paint.
Adding color to white pumpkins may be the best thing ever- because you can hold on to the white pumpkins all fall season, and then right before Halloween, they can get decorated. Go all out with glitter, succulents, lights, crayons, paints, or anything you may have on hand. Sometimes what you need is right there in your craft drawer.

Oh my. I pretty much love each and every one. Why can’t we easily get decent pumpkins in the UK? As for white ones… Forget it. And I do so love the white and gold / white and black. I got in early this year, but still had to paint some faux orange monstrosities white before I could even think about decorating them. Even then, they weren’t the size I wanted. This is the time of year I wish I lived Stateside. *Stomps feet. Flounces off* Sx

You are so adorable! Yeah, I hear you. The white and unique are harder to find in my small town as well. I bought a few faux that are awaiting their makeover.
