Happy Jack-O-Lantern

Now I am not into scary, but I do like to be part of the season, so a few years ago I did a Happy Halloween Tablescape, and it has become one of my most viewed posts.  Here is a repeat.

I can’t remember where this Jack-O-Lantern came from, it has been around for years and years.  With a candle inside it makes for a happy smiley face pumpkin.

 Orange and black is the theme.  I had a black piece of fabric, so I am using that as a tablecloth, some orange candles, votive dishes, flowers and napkins and this is looking pretty Halloween.

 A simple place setting with an accent plate in black and white and a fun leaf plate just because.

Faux Dollar Tree corn and pumpkins scattered around the table.  My Happy Jack is sitting in a ring of berries and sunflowers.

 

That’s it.  Nothing fancy but I think it is a lot of fun and I definitely like my Jack’s happy grin.

So do you go for scary or do you like happy?

    I haven’t decorated for Halloween and I am still considering whether or not to drag the storage bin out from under all the crud in the garage and see what I have in there! Your table is very cute!

    Your happy tablescape is perfect, Marty!

    I no longer decorate for Halloween, but if I did it would be like it was: happy and fun.

    I love your happy and fun table. So much nicer to do a cute Hallowe’en still bringing in the colour of Hallowe’en and the feel of Autumn!

    I love your happy Halloween table! I don’t decorate for Halloween anymore. I just go right to Thanksgiving. Hope you are doing well.

    I love your smiling Jack-O-Lantern…he is so cute! This would be great for the littles who might scare easily.

    Such a cute pumpkin! I like happy not scary. If I find a pumpkin like yours, I’m buying him.

    I love your happy jack-o-lantern. I don’t decorate a lot for Halloween either. Just kind of a nod to the day. The thing I put out every year is a picture of each of my grandchildren in their costumes when they were about 2. They are all grown now and I just like seeing them as littles.

    Love the Jack o Lantern. Not a fan of Halloween and scary ghoulish decor.
    In our prayers and hope each day is better.
