Well Lived | Sara

I think this may be my favorite Halloween DIY so far this year. It’s so incredibly simple, yet packs so much nostalgic Halloween cuteness.

I picked up a lamp (and ditched the shade), a pumpkin pail, and a witch’s hat from my local Goodwill. I spray painted the lamp base black with some spray paint I had on hand.

Using paint from other projects, I added some details to the pumpkin pail to make it look more retro.

Then I cut a hole in the base of the pail, slid it onto the lamp base, and used a little hot glue to secure it. I tied a bow around the lamp base (lucky for me I had that striped ribbon from last year), and then hot glued the witch’s hat to the pail.

The lamp idea came from the very talented @itseverydayryan and the vintage style pumpkin pail idea is from Katelynn Lowery (on Facebook, I don’t think she has an IG).

This is such a fun, versatile, and inexpensive way to bring so much Halloween goodness to your space. Plus, the soft, orange glow at night is such a vibe. 🥰
