Hello Ella Claire friends! I’m Shannon and I blog over at AKA Design.
I’m honored to be here to share a fun little fall project with you.
Pumpkin Flower Vase
When shopping for supplies, I was ideally hoping to find a larger pumpkin. But alas the grocery stores don’t have them yet. So I settled for this adorable little pie pumpkin. But you could use whatever size pumpkin you like. Just know that it will take a large bunch of flowers to fill it out nicely.
Supplies
- pumpkin
- mason jar
- flowers
- water
- carving knife
- spoon
Instructions
1. Cut the top off of the pumpkin.
2. Scoop out the seeds and either discard or set aside for roasting.
3. Place a mason jar filled with water into the hollowed out pumpkin. You can alternately use a can or cup. Really whatever fits!
4. Trim and arrange flowers to fit in vase.
That’s it.
Truth be told it was easier than I thought!
And just in case you’re in a fall kinda mood, here are a few more of my fall ideas…

We're going to the pumpkin patch today. I generally dislike carving pumpkins, what with the slime and all, but I am hoping the husband or one of the kids will empty one out for me to make this adorable pumpkin vase. I love it!
