Painted pumpkins by local artist Laura Welch Taylor
Do the typical orange and black of Halloween not match your home aesthetic? Artist Laura Welch Tyler’s painted ceramic pumpkins offer a variety of designs to complement any style and bring a subtle Halloween flair to your living room, mantle or dining table. If you’re not a fan of the bright Halloween colors, you’ll love the pastel blues and pinks and the light gray and black of Taylor’s designs. Some of her pumpkins even double as storage for your favorite Halloween candy or to display a fresh fall bouquet. Find the artist on Instagram.

The Keeping Room has lots of pieces to elevate your holiday displays, including velvet, glittered and bejeweled pumpkins. If you’re looking for a unique way to dress up your table centerpieces, check out the hand-painted Halloween party hats or decor buckets. Throwing a Halloween or fall-themed party?
