Spruce Up Your Space with a Mint Pumpkin Wall Art

Have you ever wondered if pumpkins come in other colors besides orange? Well, they do, at least in this free fall printable, I designed for you!

It’s that time of year when we get to cozy up our homes with all things fall.

And guess what? I’ve got a treat for you that will make your home feel like a warm autumn hug.

Introducing our adorable mint pumpkin wall art printable, set against a backdrop of classic black and white buffalo check background.

This free printable is about to become your new favorite piece of seasonal decor.

Let’s dive in together and make our homes even cozier with this charming creation!

Fall free printable mint floral pumpkin with black and white buffalo check bacground

Today I’m sharing with you this lovely mint pumpkin with white and mint floral with a hint of faux gold foliage. The lovely mint pumpkin sits in front of a black and white watercolor buffalo check background, which really makes the mint color pop.

The fall art printable is 16×20. It has a high resolution of 300 dpi meaning that you can scale it to any size up to 16×20 without losing printing quality.

I am including the two common sizes: 16×20 and 8×10 in PNG and PDF. You need the PNG file if you choose to print it at a printing shop or online.

For best quality, I recommend printing your 8×10 on 8.5 x 11″ high-quality cardstock

( I recommend this one).

What You’ll Need

Printer
White cardstock
Scissors or Paper Cutter

How to Print and Hang Your Mint Pumpkin Wall Art

-Download and print out the mint pumpkin wall art printable onto white cardstock. I have a $40 HP (discontinued) and a more expensive Canon printer and I must say the HP didn’t disappoint.

-The Canon printer definitely has better printing quality. But once I put the printables into frames and up on the wall, I couldn’t tell the difference between the HP and Canon printables.

If you have an HP printer with wireless printing, you can subscribe to their monthly ink program. Basically, when you sign up HP will send you a new HP ink cartridge. Once you install this new ink cartridge, it will monitor and keep track of how many pages you print. Depending on your plan, you are allowed to roll over a certain amount of pages. My plan lets me roll over 300 pages. I realized I’m not using all my allowed pages so I’m going to downgrade to a cheaper plan.

When it detects that your ink is running low, HP will send you another one. And it doesn’t matter if you print in black or color, so you don’t have to worry about wasting your color ink. They charge you for pages, not ink usage.

-The PNG version is for uploading onto online printing services or printing at a local print shop or photo company.
If you like to use these in your digital planner, you would need to download the PNG version.
The PDF version can be printed easily at home onto letter-sized cardstock.

Displaying your Wall Art Printables

-Put these wall art in a big frame with a white mat for 8×10 photos. This way you can just print the design onto 8.5×11 cardstock without having to trim it down to fit an 8×10 frame. I use a fine-point dry-erase marker to write out my plans.

-Here are some beautiful frames that would be lovely for this printable. Some are 8×10 and one is 11×14.

2. Use magnetic poster hanger frames.  I have these in several different sizes. It’s so easy to change signs with the magnetic poster hanger frame.  Just put your sign between the two magnetic pieces of wood and hang it up on the wall. I like that they are really lightweight and have no glass that my kids can break. Of course, the downside of these is that I can’t use them as erase boards since there is no glass involved. Only the 4 pieces of wood strips that hold the printable and a string hang. It’s very simple.

3. Print the printable onto magnetic paper so you can put it on your refrigerator or any magnetic board.

4. Use washi tapes for a creative and fun way to display your printable calendar on the wall. Washi tapes come in many different sizes and designs. You can also use these for your planners or cut them out as stickers for the kids. I am loving these right now.

5. Use a string and paper clips for a quick display of your printables. I actually have string lights that came with paper clips to hold photos. It’s no longer available at Target, but it’s similar to this one.

6. The simplest way is to use regular tape to put your printables up on the wall.

Alternatives to hanging it up on the wall

1. Use as a printable planner cover or divider.

2. Use as a digital planner cover, divider, or sticker. You can convert this pdf into an image such as JPG or PNG by using any free online pdf converter program. I use this one.

Keep your Last-Minute Kids’ Party simple

When planning a last-minute party, it’s important to keep things simple. Don’t try to plan an elaborate event with too many activities and decorations. Stick to a simple theme, and focus on the essentials, such as food, drinks, and easy setup manageable activities.

Choose a venue

Consider renting a party venue if you don’t have time to decorate your home or yard. Many venues offer packages that include decorations, food, and activities. This can save you time and stress and ensure your child has a great party.

Online invitations

Save time and money by using online invitations. There are many websites and apps that offer free, customizable invitations that you can send out quickly. Plus, you can track RSVPs and send reminders to guests. You can also design your own invitations using free online apps like Canva. Check out my shop for more printable invitations.

Don’t have time for elaborate decorations? No problem. Buy some balloons, streamers, and simple decorations from your local party supply store. These can be set up quickly and will create a festive atmosphere. Print out party banners like these at home or your local print shop, cut them, and decorate your party. These party decorations can also double as photo backdrops!

Order Food

Ordering food from a local restaurant or catering company saves time and energy. Many offer party platters and packages that can be delivered or picked up quickly. Or, consider having a pizza party or a taco bar, which are easy to set up and manage. Lots of grocery stores offer party food and dessert at affordable prices.
If you insist on making something, Sweet and Savory Morsels, have some lovely recipes!

DIY ACTIVITIES

If you don’t have time to plan elaborate games and activities, consider setting up a craft table or a coloring station. You can also put together a simple scavenger hunt or have a dance party with a playlist of your child’s favorite songs.

Kids these days are wild about Bingo games as well.

Have a plan B

If you’re planning an outdoor party, have a plan B in case of bad weather. Consider renting a tent or having an indoor space available as a backup. This will ensure that the party can continue without interruption.

Enlist help

Don’t be afraid to ask for help from friends or family. They can help with setup, cleanup, and managing the party. Plus, it’s always more fun to plan a party with others. If one of your friends bakes for a living, ask her to make a special cake for your kiddo.

Keep it short

When planning a last-minute party, keep it short and sweet. A two-hour party is plenty of time for kids to have fun and enjoy the festivities.

Enjoy the Party

Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the party with your child. Don’t stress too much about the details; focus on making memories with your family and friends.
