Fabric Plaid Pumpkin Centerpiece

I am crazy for plaid. 

I have purchased several plaid shirts already this year, and what’s even more crazy, I have already started to visualize what my Christmas decor will be this year.  You got it!  Plaid.  So when I saw these amazing plaid pumpkins that my friend, Laura at Junque Cottage was selling, I said sign me up!  And I knew exactly where I would display them.  A Fall Pumpkin Centerpiece in my Spode Bread Box.  Because this English beauty was just screaming to be filled with plaid pumpkins.  And I listened.  🙂

I have a few pieces, like dear old friends, that come out each year for different seasons, and I look forward to seeing them again each year.  My Spode Woodlands Bread Box is one such piece.  I carefully wrap it in bubble wrap at the end of the Fall season, and when I unwrap it to decorate again the following year – it makes me so happy.

Do you have a piece that makes you happy?  😀

When I spotted the plaid pumpkins, they spurred something within my Anglophile English-decor-loving heart. It’s as if they were made specifically for this Spode Bread Box. I ordered two large plaid pumpkins, two medium golden-rust pumpkins and two small burlap pumpkins.  

I arranged the centerpiece simply, with some tufts of green moss and a few sprigs of berries.  I placed the centerpiece in the center of our bowfront chest in the foyer.  

This chest used to sit in our formal Dining Room, but when we had the floors refinished, I decided to place it in the foyer instead.  Click here to see what I replaced it with in the DR for Fall.  Once again, have been debating about painting this bowfront chest. What say you???  

I am so in love with the mercury lamps I placed on each side of our newly renovated Fall Mantel, I purchased two more for this chest.  I know, repetitive – but when you find something that works you stick with it. 😀

Instead of burlap shades like I used on the Mantel, I chose a linen shade with nickel finish tacks.  I love these shades. 

I didn’t add too much more to this vignette… two wood turned candlesticks and two small leaf plates filled with acorns. 

I love to hang wreaths over the Foyer’s arched, Cathedral mirror.  I think a layered look creates so much interest to a space.  I already had a boxwood and cotton wreath I had used over my Farmhouse sink this Summer, so I added some Fall berries and Fall leaves and a plaid bow. 

This wreath took me all of 5 minutes to assemble.

So there you have it… my new Plaid Pumpkin Centerpiece in our Foyer.  A little Fall greeting – English style.

Thanks for letting me share my 2016 Fall Foyer and Plaid Pumpkin Centerpiece. 

xxoo, Barb
