Frequently asked questions
How do I do Halloween in the living room without it feeling tacky?
Swap two or three pillows for velvet, plaid, or subtle Halloween motifs. Add a faux-fur or waffle throw in burnt orange or charcoal. Refresh the coffee table with a low centerpiece. Stop there. Restraint is the difference between editorial and clutter.
What is a good color palette for a Halloween living room?
Burnt orange, deep aubergine or eggplant, warm cream, and a hint of brass or candle gold. Avoid pairing pure black with neon orange, that combination reads costume-shop. Lean warm and tonal instead.
Can I keep my living-room Halloween decor up through Thanksgiving?
Absolutely, if you swap the overtly Halloween motifs, ghosts, witches, jack-o-lanterns, for pumpkins, gourds, and dried botanicals on November 1. The underlying palette and textures carry through fall.
