How to elevate your Halloween décor with a chic flower pumpkin display...

Halloween is often associated with spooky decorations, but today we’re offering a refreshing twist on Halloween décor, inspired by @vincentandstubbsflowers. Follow our step-by-step guide to create an elegant pumpkin display adorned with seasonal flowers and foliage that will impress your guests and brighten your space this Halloween.

Here’s What You’ll Need:

  • 1 large pumpkin
  • Seasonal flowers and foliage
  • 1 knife
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 bowl of water
  • Chicken wire

Step 1: Choose Your Pumpkin

Select a large pumpkin; the bigger, the better!

Step 2: Prep Your Pumpkin

Carefully slice off the top of the pumpkin and scoop out the seeds. Be sure to clean the interior well to help your pumpkin last longer.

Step 3: Create Structure

Soak the chicken wire in the bowl of water and place it inside the pumpkin. This will provide support for your floral arrangement.

Step 4: Prepare Your Florals

Remove any leaves that will sit in the water and trim the stems to the appropriate length. For a seasonal touch, use flowers and foliage from your garden. Incorporate a variety of textures with plants like rosemary, sedum, hydrangeas, amaranthus, rosehip berries, and trailing ivy.

Step 5: Add the Finishing Touches

Surround your floral arrangement with smaller gourds to complement your pumpkin centrepiece.

We hope this inspires you to unleash your creativity with a sophisticated take on Halloween decorating! We’d love to see your floral pumpkin displays, so don’t forget to share your creations with us on Instagram so we can share them @Kitkempdesignthread.
