Front Porch: House Number Flower Pumpkins

October 2, 2013
 

Happy October friends! This week I’m sharing some fall porch decorating ideas. Fall  is one of my favorite times of year. I admit that I am a gourd hoarder, pumpkin collector and lover of all things that this season brings. I just find their beauty so hard to resist! The first place to be decorated at our home is the front porch. I had so much fun making these house number flower pumpkins.

This year, I wanted to make some pumpkins that displayed our house numbers. So, I embellished pumpkins with real flowers. I am just loving the way they turned out.
The trick to this craft is using the florist supply miniature waterers. You can find these even in the floral section at your large craft stores.

I used the drill to help me place the flowers into the pumpkins.

The rest of the porch is filled with fall inspired planters. Fall is one of my favorite times of year.

Did you know that pansies are also a wonderful flower to plant not only in the spring but also the fall. They don’t mind a light frost.

I love to mix up the colors.
I think I just might have another addiction; patty pans.
Head on over to HGTV Gardens to learn how to make these House Number Pumpkins.
