Pottery Barn's popular item is back in stock for Halloween, and I'm determined not to let it slip past me - let's see who can get to the checkout first
Pottery Barn's terracotta jack o'lanterns have become a popular choice for Halloween decor, offering a unique blend of artisan quality, variety, and versatility. These handmade pieces are available in six sizes and three colours, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor decoration.
Indoor Decor Ideas
For indoor decor, the smaller sizes of terracotta jack o'lanterns are ideal for creating spooky tablescapes and mantelpiece displays. By mixing different shapes (classic pumpkin or bulkier gourd) and colours, you can achieve a layered, stylish effect. Fill some of these terracotta pumpkins with twinkling LED lights to create a warm, festive glow for indoor fall parties. Arrange them alongside complementary pumpkins, gourds, and autumnal foliage to enhance seasonal tables or shelves, creating a chic Halloween vibe.
Outdoor Decor Ideas
Larger sizes of the terracotta jack o'lanterns are perfect for outdoor decor, particularly for dressing up porches or staircases. Group them on steps or by the front door, pairing them with real or faux pumpkins, gourds, flowers, and foliage for an eye-catching display. For a modern twist, cluster terracotta jack o'lanterns in a range of sizes and colours for an expansive, layered look on the porch or patio. Since they are hand-crafted from terracotta, these pumpkins withstand outdoor conditions better than real pumpkins, making them a reusable and durable option.
Additional popular decorating touches include combining the terracotta pieces with light-up Halloween elements like lanterns or subtle spider-themed accents to elevate the outdoor spooky atmosphere without being overly gimmicky.
Additional Offerings
Pottery Barn's Halloween collection extends beyond the terracotta jack o'lanterns, including tableware, soft furnishings, and outdoor accessories for a comprehensive Halloween decorating experience. The delicate garland, hand-assembled, is an ideal finishing touch for fall tablescapes, while pillar candles, with a 60-hour burn time, help jack-o'-lanterns glow and also look elegant in a cluster.
