Fall Dining Table

 The fall Dining Table is the post this week-

The fall table is the first thing you see when coming into BRASWELL, the shop.

It is Halloween month so a pumpkin is the vase for the Hydrangeas. In addition to Hydrangeas, fall leaves would be super, berries or flowers.

Tools we used- serrated knife, carving knife, black pen (for drawing a line around the top), large spoon (for flesh & seeds etc.) 

Pick a pumpkin that is a shape you fancy for your vase.Draw a circle with a pencil around the top of the pumpkin.

Use your knife to carve out a circular opening at the top (around the pumpkin stem)

Remove the flesh and seeds from the inside.

Viola!  Your vase

 I used a clear, straight sided vessel and arranged the stems loosely without crowding the flower heads. Take off all the flower leaves! I used gray Spanish moss under the flower heads. 

Discard water when murky, allowing flowers to dry in the vase.
I put small green & white pumpkins at each place.

Have a wonderful weekend!
