Autumn Inspired
Pumpkin Decorating
A playful fall pop-up that puts a little creativity on every desk.
The Experience
We set up a long decorating table with mini pumpkins, paint, markers, ribbon, and plenty of glitter-adjacent temptation. Tenants drop in on their schedule, decorate at their own pace, and carry their finished pumpkin back to their desk as a small seasonal keepsake. It works beautifully as a one-day lobby pop-up or a recurring October tradition.
Why It Works
- Zero skill required, so every tenant can join without hesitation.
- Take-home output keeps the activation visible long after the event.
- Drop-in format fits any schedule — five minutes or an hour.
Additional Inspiration
- Offer two decorating tracks — paint and markers for a quick lunchtime pop, or full craft supplies with stencils, decoupage, and ribbon for a slower sit-down session.
- Run a 'best pumpkin' friendly vote at day's end with a small prize, and photograph the winners for the building's screens.
- Add a 'pumpkins for the front desk' option where tenants decorate a few extra to dress the lobby for the rest of the season.
