This fall pumpkin planter is filled with cream and blue faux flowers with a cute pumpkin as the centerpiece. We reused our front porch planter pots, but you can also find affordable and beautiful planters at your local home improvement store or online.
What You’ll Need
- Urn or Flower planter container
- 2 pumpkins
- 2 bunches of blue faux mum flowers
- 2 bunches of assorted off-white faux flowers
- Floral Blocks
- 2 boxes or smaller containers to fit inside the urn
Pumpkin Prep
Hey, if you come across the perfect size, tall and narrow, and just the right color, please give me a heads up! I’ve been on the hunt but couldn’t find it anywhere, so I ended up painting some in the shade I wanted.
So, I grabbed the craft paint that I already had – a mix of Territorial Beige, Vanilla Ice Cream, Tropic Orange, and just a touch of Jack-o-lantern by Apple Barrel. The color turned out perfect! I also went ahead and added a layer of clear sealer to keep it safe from any moisture.
Flower Prep
While I was waiting for the pumpkins to dry, it was time to get my flowers ready. I grabbed my trusty tin snips and started separating and sorting the flowers for both planters.
Put it all Together
Just grab a couple of your Amazon boxes (or any small containers that are the same size and can fit inside your planter), and cut them down to the size you want. Then, simply trace and cut the floral black for planters and lay it on top of the box inside the planter. Easy peasy!
Alright, let’s get started! Pop your pumpkin right in the middle and start filling in the flowers around it. Don’t forget to repeat the same process on the second planter.
And just like that, you now have a gorgeous fall pumpkin planter ready to be displayed on your front porch or anywhere in your home. It’s the perfect way to add a touch of autumn charm to your decor.
You can switch up the colors and textures of pumpkins, flowers, and planters to create a unique look that’s all your own. No matter what you choose, this easy fall DIY project will be the perfect addition to your autumn home decor!
