The best seasonal exteriors don’t rely on overly obvious Halloween decorations. Case in point: Patrick and Brittany Mahomes’ Kansas City home, where a fall-themed entrance combines chrysanthemums, pumpkins, and considered lighting for a look that feels perfect for October without going over the top.

Set against the home’s facade, the couple has worked their outdoor fall decor into their landscaping. Rows of white and golden chrysanthemums frame the front steps, while orange pumpkins are tucked into the planting beds. The simple placement makes the display feel especially pulled together. The pumpkins add color throughout the garden, while the chrysanthemums around the entrance create a subtle sense of repetition.

If you want to recreate the look at home, Belgian mums (from Trees.com) are an easy way to bring those rich fall tones to a porch or entryway, with golden-yellow and orange varieties offering plenty of seasonal impact. All elements feel connected to the home and landscaping, without the Halloween decor taking over the space.

‘Decorating the entrance in this way for Halloween looks like part of the landscaping instead of a bunch of decorations,’ says Jeremy Olsher, a real estate advisor who specializes in property presentation.

‘The pumpkins are mixed with the plants, and the large groupings of white and golden chrysanthemums frame the front steps. Wonderful structure. The smaller pumpkins and orange lights enhance the Halloween atmosphere. It is indeed a beautiful balance.’

Patrick and Brittany's classic fall color scheme is similarly impactful. They've leaned into one of the tones synonymous with the season, including cream, muted orange, yellow, and green, which are repeated throughout the planting and decorations. This gives the entrance a seasonal feel without leaning too heavily into brighter or gimmicky colors.

‘Seasonal curb appeal works best when it makes the entrance feel warmer and more inviting,’ Jeremy says. ‘Repeating the same colors: cream, muted orange, yellow, and green makes the entrance look coordinated.’

You also don’t need a sizeable collection of decorations to create a similar effect. Jeremy recommends grouping a few larger pieces rather than filling the entrance with lots of small accessories.

‘If your budget is smaller, you can decorate in clusters,’ he explains. ‘For example, a few large pots of mums beside the door and pumpkins grouped at different heights around them. This is easy to achieve and looks more polished than 15 small decorations across the entire porch.’

For Patrick and Brittany, the result is an entrance that feels distinctly perfect for fall without competing with the landscaping. It's gone straight to the top of our inspiration board, as decorating begins.
