Fall Arrangements

Fall is my favorite season. Sadly, the weather just gets slightly less hot and less humid here, and we don't have any beautiful foliage to look at, but I still like to bring some of the season alive with some fall themed decor and flower arrangements.

This year I became obsessed with heirloom pumpkins, but I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to find any anywhere. Lucky me we have a big nursery near us that sells them, even luckier for me is that I didn't buy them at the nursery and found them for less than 7 bucks at both Trader Joe's and Whole Foods. I incorporated them into some of my fall arrangements on my table.

How incredible are these marigolds? They were HUGE. I am also loving the eucalyptus.

This one is a bit of a cheat, I did get a pre-arranged bouquet from TJs (couldn't resist that awesome protea) and then I added some orange mums. 

I actually got 2 weeks out of the previous arrangement, and then I combined some of the pieces with the above arrangement. The orange mums lasted 3 weeks!

This arrangement isn't really fall themed like the others, but I needed to add something to my stack of pumpkins and I scored 2 dozen light peach roses for $10 while looking for florals for my friend's upcoming wedding. Sadly in just 3 weeks I will be putting up my Christmas decor and pumpkin season will be a distant memory, so I need to enjoy my pumpkins while I still can!
