We are coming up on Halloween weekend! I am so excited I can hardly contain myself, mostly because I have decided to be a domesticated piglet for the evening (digression). Holidays provide one of the best excuses for festive creativity! For example, last night I made my cute and curly piglet tail out of bright pink pipe cleaners (I was very pleased with myself).
Anyways, by now you've probably noticed my love for flowers as they truly create an aesthetically attractive centerpiece appropriate for almost every occasion. Presently, fall flowers are everywhere - yellows, oranges, burnt reds and vibrant reds - and with Halloween just days away, what better than to create the perfectly plump vase to hold such a gorgeous array - the pumpkin! So easy and so cute - anyone who has carved a pumpkin before can whip up this display in a few minutes. All you have to do is cut off the top, dump out the insides, insert a plastic bag filled with water to line the pumpkin's gut and deliberately style the arrangement.
I am looking forward to gifting my wonderful dinner party hosts tonight with my splendidly fall flowering pumpkin!
