Gussied Up Gourds
• 20 October 2008
I'm seeing exotic gourds all over the place these days--at nurseries, farms, in my CSA box and even Target of all places. I picked up a few specimens at Rosewood Gardens on 3300 S. and attempted an Autumn arrangement of sorts. I dressed them up with some satin ribbon from The Lace Place on Highland to add color and texture. I attached ribbons with pearl pins for a clean look.
So go ahead, and make your own arrangment, and if you end up uploading them, send me a link :)
lovely...I always pick up a few pumpkins in varying colors and sizes, and adorn them with black ribbons. I spray paint some of them with gold paint, and use them as festive decor through Thanksgiving. I'm liking your use of the pretty green squash...very organic!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fall arrangement!
ReplyDeleteI like the ribbon - I've never thought of adding embellishment.
