This centerpiece is so incredibly easy to make that even I don’t have problems messing it up. First you cut off the top of a smallish pumpkin. Then you clean it out. Add some soil to it, plant a flower, add some more soil and then water it. Voila! You now have a gorgeous and festive Fall decoration.

How totally cool…very creative:) Happy WW.
I have a TON of smallish pumpkins (61 in fact) I could do this with… what a CUTE idea. Thanks!
Cute idea!
what a great idea!! just lovely.
How wonderful!! I love it…You could even draw a face and plant grass or sprouts and have hair that you could style! Thanks for sharing this great idea!
That’s really cute–I bet it’s fun when it gets really full!
And I forgot to mention your brother’s site again, so I republished it with another link (sorry).
That’s very creative! Great shot too!
That is adorable! I’m just wondering though, how long will it last before the pumpkin starts to go bad? I’d like to make a couple for a certain event but don’t want to make them too far ahead if the pumpkin won’t last.
Very cute!
How fun! I love this idea and think it would be a great project to do with my kids! Any idea on how long it would last?
Happy WW!
Very cleaver!!
If my memory doesn’t fail me, these pumpkins will last about a week or maybe a little longer. Depends on how fresh the pumpkin is to begin with. We haven’t made ours yet this season, so my memory isn’t super reliable.
Enjoy!
Cute and simple, I like it.
This is such a cute and easy decoration…. I can’t wait to make one! I have guests coming this weekend and I really want to jazz up my home for fall! This will be the perfect start!
I love it! Even I could do that!
fun idea!
I wanted to let you know I changed the mess about the leaving the links in the comments and installed a Mr. Linky instead. I went ahead and added your post’s permalink to the list. Just FYI.
Hi Lucy! That is the craft my Balcony Girls are doing this month for their moms, but all they know is they are bringing their own pumpkin! It’s fun, easy and so festive
Have a great day! sandy
That’s a cool idea. How long do they usually last?
Oh my gosh what a fabulous idea!! Thanks for sharing!
That is a neat idea!!
Great idea! I love that it is easy too.
very creative, and good use of pumpkin!!
That is adorable! I bet if you put it in the fridge or outside at night it would last longer.
how cute is this! i can’t wait to use it:-)
Very cute!
That is too cute! I’d have to use fake flowers, though–I can kill any plant in 3 days
Absolutely adorable fall craft!!! I love it, love it, love it! Now I need to get myself out to buy another pumpkin.
Aww, that’s so cute!
What a good idea. I’ll be fun to make them with the girls.
Thank you for the idea!
Ahhhh, purty! I love it.
Come visit us sometime at The Big Yellow House!
