Fall in Love Centerpiece |
Materials Needed:
Pumpkin of Any Size
Carving Knife
Scissors
Recycled Soup Can
Bouquet of Flowers
Masking Tape or Twine
What a brilliant idea to put flowers in a pumpkin rather than a vase. Simply cut a circle around the top of stem wide enough for a soup can to sit inside the pumpkin. Next, clean out the guts and save the seeds so you can eat them, of course! Place the can inside the pumpkin with a little bit of water for your flowers. You can use real or fake flowers in your bouquet but I purchased mine from the local farmers market in Eau Claire, WI for $5.00. We are all about crafting on a budget. Cut the stems, at an angle, to the appropriate size so that the flowers sit right on the top of the pumpkin. Lastly, I wrapped the stems with tape or twine so the bouquet stays together. And there you go, you have your fabulous fall centerpiece. I hope you enjoyed this fun and easy DIY project as much as we did!
Fantastic post.
