I've always been drawn to the sight of pumpkins. I think it's the huge pop of orange brightening up the supposedly scary holiday. So it's no wonder these pumpkins made me smile - with colorful cartoony faces painted on the fun, orange gourd!
Though it turns out, painting over the orange still draws me in. Okay, I guess it isn't surprising that I would be captivated by these colorful, patterned pumpkins...
Don't you love their fun, Mexican pinata vibe?
What about the restrained pops of color & pattern on these white pumpkins?
Even purely white pumpkins look gorgeous!
Who would have thought white pumpkins could look this sophisticated?
Now what do you think of these black ones?
Turns out, with some paint, tinsel, glue and twine, Shannon of NYC Taught Me brought some punk to her pumpkins!
I'm not sure I'm ready to bring this punk aesthetic to my home. But I don't mind a black pumpkin for an interesting vase...
And to my dear friends & family in New York & New Jersey (where the top pumpkin photo was actually taken), I wish I could send you these pretty white pumpkin candles to help out during the power outages going on now. Stay safe. You are all in my prayers!
I guess it doesn't matter if pumpkins are orange or not. I'm still quite enamored by them in any color!
So orange or not, pumpkin or no pumpkin, have a happy Halloween everyone!
