Can we take a second to appreciate the simplicity of this project? When it boils down to it, we have a table arch (super easy to do!), with black garland zip tied for drama (again, you can throw that up in minutes!) with some $1 pumpkins enhanced with custom faces – (also done in minutes with sticker felt!). Pop in some LED pillar candles and BAM! Instant Halloween table decor. Post COVID, I would loooovvee to set this display up over a buffet table, with a cauldron or a chocolate fountain perhaps. As you probably have noticed, I made all my jack o lanterns “funny” or “laughing” style, since I’m not one for a creepy/gore/scare focused Halloween. You can customize these pumpkins however YOU want. The best part is, you just trace them out on the felt, and cut them out.

Here is my tutorial on how to make the pumpkins: https://youtu.be/6b417lUfkc4 – again, sooooo easy for last minute decor! Interested in making a table arch? I promise it is way easier then you would think, and the possibilities for decor potential are endless!

I snapped a few photos of the look during the day, and and night so you can see what it looks like in natural light- which is still pretty darn cool!


I’m SO proud of how it turned out at night. Here are a few shots of the look with no lights on in the whole house, all of that dramatic lighting is from the LED pillar candles.

If you are buying LED pillar candles for this project – be sure to get a set with remotes!

Here’s to a fun and safe holiday season! I have lots of ideas for the upcoming holiday season I can’t wait to share with you – so make sure you are subscribed to my YouTube channel to be the first to know when content drops.
