Gourds and pumpkins are a classic for fall decorating, so why not give it a little twist by painting faux pumpkins in sage and white. Create drama by grouping different sizes in the center of your table.

Pumpkin Vase

Pack a punch by filling a large pumpkin with a beautiful floral display. You will need to scoop the pumpkin out first or you could also use a faux pumpkin. Then place a vase or floral foam inside this and arrange your flowers how you would like. A typical flower to include would be the sunflower.

Make a simple piece by filling a jar with popcorn Kernels and then add a faux flower. These would make ideal decorations to place around your home such as for a fall baby shower for example.

Make a wood effect pumpkin using wood grain charger plates from the dollar store. Hot glue three together to recreate this idea then adorn it with items including sequins and ribbons and anything else you would like.

Dollar Store Track Lantern

Make this Lantern using Dollar Store Tracks. Begin by bending the race track to form the lantern arch. You can then place this arch in the square box sign. Paint it white and hot glue rope to each track. You can then fill it with faux pumpkins and foliage.

Lantern

Lanterns make for stunning decoration ideas as you can place whatever arrangement you like inside. In this case an elegant white pumpkin is used for understated decor.
