Make Your Own Ceramic Painted Pumpkins
I added a tiny bit of white to the dark sage and a drop of yellow to the white paint so that the white pumpkins weren’t too bright.
Here are a couple of other projects that I found using these same Oriental Trading pumpkins. There are so many fun ways to decorate them!

Hi Brandy! Love your craft pumpkins! They are lovely on your mantel. Thanks for the link to the Oriental Trading. Never thought to find items like ceramic pumpkins there. I have ordered mine and will be delivered this Monday! So excited to decorate mine and place on the mantel. Thanks so much for sharing!!
Yay! I’ve had mine for a few years now and love pulling them out in the fall!
These colors are gorgeous! I love how muted and pretty they are. Thank you for sharing at Celebrate It!
Long time Oriental shopper but never dreamed they would have ceramic pumpkins. Now I know! Love the minty-sagey colors you used, Beautiful.
I love your color choices, what a beautiful twist on fall! You make me want to decorate in sage!
Thank you so much, Loni!
These look wonderful! And those ceramic pieces look like they are made really well, and still have lots of detail from the mold! Nice! Visiting from Dream Create Inspire!
Thank you, Julie!
I love these colors. I used very similar colors last year on these pumpkins and I’m still obsessed with them! I’d love for you to share your pumpkin project at the Make Life Pretty Monday link party beginning tonight at 8 pm! Hope to see you there!
Your pumpkins look amazing and I luv your color choices! Pinned. I’d luv to invite you to share it with us at Wall to Wall DIY Wednesday, which runs thru Mondays! Best, Ann
I love the colors. And how the pumpkins come in various sizes. It makes for a lovely vignette.
Could you list the names of the actual paints you used? Who knows, maybe I have that ten year old green already! I have been trying to find nice green shades for something like this for a long time, and I think you nailed it. Brands and names please?
So true! You may just have the same color in your stash!
Darker Green is: PLAID FolkArt #619 Poetry Green (I mixed a little white with it to tone it down)
Light Green/Blue is: MARTHA STEWART Satin #32022 Cloud
White: Apple Barrel #20503 White
Thank you, Brandy, I will go check my paint stash!

I love your pumpkins! They are such a beautiful color and I will be featuring them at Totally Terrific Tuesday tomorrow.
Beautiful ideas thank you for sharing them with us. I’m going to post them. Hugs, Linda on Poinsettia Drive poinsettiadr.com
Your pumpkins look great – I love the colors. I actually did try painting a dollar store styrofoam pumpkin and it turned out ok but it does look cheap. These are so much better!!
This is my first visit to your blog and so glad I found it! The pumpkins are so pretty. Thanks for sharing. Caught up with you through The Boondocks Blog, Sweet Inspiration Party.
Thank you Jolena!
They turned out gorgeous, love them!

Thank you so much!
Just found you from the Sits Girls link up and now following!! 🙂
I love every single display that you made with them! Great job. I especially love the first ones that are greenish.

Oh those are gorgeous Brandy. Love, love, love the colors you used. So subtle and classy
I decorated mine with orange and black for Halloween, but I may need to get another set to paint for Fall. I love these colors!
These are so cute! 🙂

Love your mantel decorations with the cotton bolls and lambs ear. Hmmm, would love to have set of ceramic pumpkins could paint whatever colors I wanted. Glad for you to get them when you did. I painted a few orange plastic pumpkins from $ tree white, just couldn’t deal with so much orange in our very light gray walls, little bit of coral and more aqua in our living room. Kept decorations more sparse this year. Our l/r is small so too much really makes it look cluttered. Hardly used much of what I had for decorations. Did do more out on our front porch table.
Your home looks so perfectly decorated, very nicely done.
Happy week
Thank you Jane! We have light grey walls and I felt the same way! Wanted more subtle colors than the traditional Halloween colors. Take care!
Oh my goodness…the possibilities are endless. It is amazing how a pumpkin can be decorated in so many ways. I love the subtle sage green pumpkins. Perfect for neutral colored decor. I would love to pair it up with burlap.
Thank you, Marsha!
what did you use to paint your pumpkins with (paint and applicator) i love the colors totally matches my decor
Hi! I used acrylic craft paint and craft paint brushes. I found that sponge brushes didn’t work as well as the regular art brushes for smooth strokes. Hope that helps!
I love those shades of green! Very pretty!
These are so pretty! Visiting from DIY Showoff party!

I absolutely love this project! Those pumpkins look stunning in your space. The gold against those soft, pastel greens is a beautiful colour combination. Beautiful results!
Thank you so much!
These are really gorgeous shades of green and the pumpkins looks really unique painted like that. When you can’t find what you need make it yourself!!
Thank you, Mary!
?? they’re sold out!
These are beautiful & love that color!!
I know, such a bummer! I ordered mine on Sunday and they came Thursday. So in just that amount of time they sold out! I’m sure they’ll stock them again quickly. They had them last year too, apparently so it’s one of their popular items!
I can see why!!
