Plastic, wooden, glass, woven, or ceramic pumpkins! Pumpkins simply don’t do well with the heat, particularly ones that have been carved. We recommend sticking to the realistic looking pumpkins in this design. The gold leaves and gourds are so warm and a great way to give your fall decorations a luxurious feel. Mixing gold and white is a timeless design. This boutique table setting is for anyone who is looking to entertain this holiday season and wants to skip out on the normal fall decorations and keep things classy!

Make a Florida style statement by pairing the natural greens and baby’s breath with orange accents. The delicate and tasteful with a nod to fall by adding a few pumpkins. A combination that’s sophisticated and not overwhelming, with just the perfect amount of each element to bring in coziness and hints of autumn.

The white pumpkins are an accent to the mood setter: the candles. Adding candles to a space makes a space feel very inviting and romantic; perfect for creating an intimate vibe with your fall décor. No need to do an extravagant napkin set up… place a small pumpkin in the middle of the plate and you are done!

This centerpiece will have everyone talking, and is not difficult. You just open the pumpkin on top, place a container inside to hold the water, and fill with flowers creating a gorgeous statement. Make a repeat bouquet for each side of the pumpkin with some votives in between to create a longer centerpiece.
