The other day I featured centerpieces and table decorations featuring fruit and flowers. Several mentioned that vegetables can make great party centerpieces and table decorations too. Since we’re coming into the fall harvest season, I thought I’d share a couple centerpieces with vegetables that I’ve collected through the years.
One of my favorite fall vegetables to decorate with is the pumpkin. Pumpkins make wonderful serving bowls if you hollow them out. You can have them do double duty, for function and decoration.

Or use a pumpkin as the base for a floral arrangement.

Load some fall vegetables into a cornucopia horn with some flowers for a beautiful fall party centerpiece.

Or use them in a floral arrangement as a backdrop for your food table, or the focal point of your harvest party.

Fall is a bounty for vegetables, you can put them on a tray to load it with color, or use them in combination with flowers to create a dazzling fall harvest display.
Thanks for sharing these. I was one of the ones who mentioned vegetables last week. I especially love the floral arrangement with the pumpkin base. The colours really pop.
Thanks Angie:-) It was fun to put the images together:-)
