Halloween in the Lowcountry arrives with the first real breeze, and the trick is not overdoing it. Pick one surface, one moment of glow, and one table, keep it all inside the colors you already live with, and the house reads festive without looking like it belongs to a different family for the month. We've pulled our favorite pieces for the season into three edits so you can shop the look one layer at a time.
Porch and Entry: Set the mood before anyone knocks
Tall Terracotta Jack-O-Lantern
Fired terracotta with the natural warmth and slight variation that comes with clay, tall enough to anchor a step or a console on its own. 
Orange Faux Pumpkin Wreath
Faux pumpkins built into a full wreath, so the door gets the color without the weekly replacement. 
Painted Metal Ghost
Painted metal, so it can live on a covered porch and come back every year. The one piece here meant to make people smile before they knock.
Short Black Clay Jack-O-Lantern
The same idea in black clay and a shorter cut, made to sit beside the terracotta piece and give the pair some contrast.
Kate's Design Tip: Think of your tablescape as the anchor of the room. Layer in texture first, color second, and let the rest follow.
The Halloween Table: Candy for the kids, cocktails for you
20 oz. Stemmed Fluted Goblet, Orange Color Ombre
A fluted stemmed goblet in an orange ombre, twenty ounces, so it works for a cocktail or a big pour of cider.
Ghosts Tidbit Tray
A small tray with a ghost motif, sized for olives, nuts, or the good candy.
Black Fig Vetiver Three Wick Candle Jar
Black fig and vetiver in a three wick jar. Dark, a little smoky, and the closest thing to a Halloween scent that doesn't smell like candy.
Funny Halloween Cocktail Napkins
Paper cocktail napkins that do the joke so you don't have to.
Candlelight and Glow: Turn it down, let it flicker
Birch Bark Wax Indoor Pillar Luminara Candle
A large wax pillar wrapped in birch bark with a flameless Luminara flicker inside, so you get the glow without watching the flame.
Marble Cogged 2-Sided Tealight/Taper Holder
Black melange marble in a cogged shape that flips to hold either a tealight or a taper, the kind of piece that stays out well past October.
Candy Corn Lanterns
A candy corn that lights the way. For the steps or the porch rail once the overhead lights go down.
Tin Bag Jack-O-Lantern Luminary
A tin luminary shaped like a paper bag, with the jack-o-lantern face cut through so the light comes out in the pattern.
