DIY Spray Painted Gold Metal Jack-O-Lanterns


Last year I purchased these 8 and 9 inch metal jack-o-lanterns from Michaels. Update: For 2024, they only have one size which is 8.5 inches. They were easy to order online and most importantly, budget friendly!
I like the galvanized jack-o-lanterns as is, but for a more classy look I decided to spray paint them gold. After that, I styled them with flameless candles and black creepy cloth for a dining table centerpiece.


These gold jack-o-lanterns were such an easy Halloween decor DIY project. I’m excited to decorate with them around our home again for 2024 because there are so many ways to style them. For example: try them for your fall porch, console table, or as an essential oil diffuser in a kitchen!
