Hey Pumpkin - 10 Tips To Consider When Decorating With Them.

You're thinking about incorporating pumpkins with your fall decor, but you're stuck.



10 Tips When Decorating with Pumpkins and Exploring Different Textures.




1. Mix and Match: Experiment with different sizes, shapes, and textures of pumpkins. Combine smooth, glossy pumpkins with rough, textured ones for a visually interesting display.


2. Color Coordination: Consider the color scheme of your space and choose pumpkins accordingly. Traditional orange pumpkins create a warm and classic look, while white or pastel-colored pumpkins add a softer touch.


3. Opt for Varieties: Don't limit yourself to traditional round pumpkins. Embrace the variety of pumpkin shapes, such as tall and slim varieties like the "Cinderella" or "Fairytale" pumpkins, or the flat and ribbed "Lumina" pumpkins.


4. Incorporate Gourds: Don't forget about gourds! Mix them in with your pumpkin display to add additional texture and shape variety. Warty gourds or striped varieties like the "Turban" gourd can add an intriguing touch.


5. Little Pumpkins, Big Impact: Don't underestimate the power of small pumpkins. Miniature pumpkins, such as "Jack Be Little" or "Baby Boo" pumpkins, can be used in clusters or as accents throughout your décor to add pops of color and interest.


6. Go Natural: Choose pumpkins with natural, untouched textures such as those with warts, bumps, or ridges. These imperfections can enhance the organic and rustic feel of your fall décor.


7. Mix with Naturals: Pair your pumpkins with natural elements like fall leaves, pinecones, acorns, or dried corn husks to create a harmonious and seasonal arrangement.


8. Elevated Displays: Elevate your pumpkin arrangements by using different-sized pedestals, rustic wooden crates, or decorative stands. This creates height variation and adds dimension to your overall décor.


9. Unconventional Displays: Think beyond traditional centerpieces and consider unconventional ways to display your pumpkins. Stack them in a vintage wheelbarrow, create a cascading arrangement down your staircase, or arrange them on a ladder for an eye-catching feature.


10. Don't Forget Lighting: Incorporate ambient lighting into your pumpkin displays by using LED candles or string lights. This creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere that enhances the beauty of your textured pumpkins.
