This paper mache pumpkin is playing a game of hide and seek. Two bony skeleton hands cover its eyes, and a round open mouth peeks out between the fingers in surprise. The orange ribs are hand-painted with an aged finish, and a twisted natural stem tops it off, so it looks like it came out of a 1950s attic.
Can a paper mache pumpkin light up? This one can. Set a battery-operated light inside through the opening in the bottom and the carved eyes and mouth glow at dusk. The light is not included, so pick up a flameless tea light or puck light before the party.
Stand it on a stack of old books, at the end of a mantel, or beside a bowl of candy at the front door. It holds its own beside real pumpkins on a porch table indoors.
Perfect for: Halloween parties, vintage Halloween decor, harvest tablescapes, Halloween mantels, trick-or-treat entryways, and fall hostess gifts.
