If you think of Joanna Gaines [1] as your decorating soul sister, there's no reason her vintage farmhouse vibe can't inspire your Halloween [2] decorating too. The look is surprisingly easy to pull off and can be done using pieces you most likely already have. With a little DIY [3] elbow grease and some Magnolia Market [4] sourcing, your flea-market-meets-haunted farmhouse will look as flawless as a Fixer Upper reveal. Here's what you'll need.
Vintage Treasures
Whether it's a vintage scale, glass cloche, or silver tray, flea market finds are the perfect prop to pair with Halloween [5] staples like a mini pumpkin. We have our eye on this metal kitchen scale from Magnolia Market [6].
Lace
Incorporate the old-time beauty of antique lace into your pumpkin decorating by using craft paint, lace, and glue [7] to pull off this elegant riff on a carve-free pumpkin. We have a feeling Joanna would approve!
White Dishes
If your kitchen is stocked with white dishware like Chip and Joanna's farmhouse [8], deck it out by hanging a simple garland and adding a handful of black crows [9].
Succulents
Joanna's greenhouse is a plant-lover's dream and the perfect place to source succulent clippings for these DIY succulent pumpkins [10].
Candles
No Fixer Upper reveal would be complete without candles, which is why we're sure you have some on hand. Collect candles from around the house and place them on a metal tray for a spooky but stylish centerpiece [11].
Distressed Sign
Distressed signs [12] are as common as shiplap when it comes to Fixer Upper staples. Make your own by following this DIY vintage sign tutorial [13].
Mason Jars
If you're like Joanna, you can find countless ways to repurpose a mason jar [14], but we're sure this
DIY Halloween terrarium [15] will become your new favorite.
Old Books
Joanna relies on old hard-back books to add soul, height, and texture to her vignettes. Try using a stack of them to display a beautiful but eerie accent [16].
White Wooden Frames
White wooden frames lend a clean farmhouse feel to any piece of artwork. Download this free Halloween printable [17] to re-create the look.
Chalkboard
Joanna Gaines uses chalkboard as art [18] in many of her renovations. Write a Halloween greeting on framed chalkboard [19] and display it in your entryway.
Ladder
You've seen barn-style ladders holding towels and blankets, but this Fixer Upper go-to works just as well for displaying a DIY Halloween "Boo" banner [20].
Green Wreath
What could be more Fixer Upper than a Magnolia wreath [21]? Style it with mini pumpkins and wheat collected in a vase for a harvest-inspired vignette [22].
Kraft Paper
Joanna gets creative with using kraft paper in the kitchen [23], but we think this idea for wrapping cookbooks in brown paper [24] is equally clever.
Pretty Flowers
Flowers often serve as the finishing touch in Joanna's Fixer Upper reveals, so why not include them in your pumpkin decorating? This DIY pumpkin vase [25] is surprisingly easy to make!
