Mini pumpkins and gourds can add big style to your Fall table. Thinking “outside the box” is the key to endless ideas for these little guys. Using mini pumpkins, white or orange, as bowls for candy, dips or even soup lends a bountiful harvest feeling to your table. Those same pumpkins can add a warm glow when you hollow them out to fit a taper or votive candle and scatter them around the table, the buffet, the powder room or even the hearth and mantel.

Gather up your various candlesticks and holders and top them with a variety of mini gourds and embellished mini pumpkins. These are just a few ideas to get you started. Look around and see what you’ve got on hand for embellishments that work with your own decor and style. Glue, glitter, ribbon, paint, sequins, stencils, jewelry, faux leaves and flowers…..get your imagination flowing and you’ll soon have some elegantly embellished minis to add a warm fall touch to your table.
