It’s not officially fall but in my book, it’s fall when football season starts. Regardless it is not too early to plan ahead for some fall decorating. I have found some gorgeous fall floral arrangements using pumpkins and gourds as vases. These show stoppers can adorn your dining table or front porch.
Adorable Chalkboard Pumpkin
I love this idea of painting a pumpkin with chalkboard paint such as this one found at Better Homes & Gardens! I’ll have to keep this in mind the next time I host a fall Supper Club and write the words “Welcome Supper Club” on the pumpkin.

The girls at Simply Happenstance created this gorgeous pumpkin succulent arrangement. Visit their blog for a full how-to tutorial.

More Gorgeous Gourds
The following four photos offer more inspiration on what you can do with fall gourds.
By elevating your gourds on a footed platter or cake stand and grouping different sized gourds together, you can create a stunning showpiece such as these from Better Homes & Gardens.
The key to this simple yet pretty fall centerpiece from Better Homes & Gardens is selecting mums with variation in color.
I found these butternut squash vases at Ana Rosa. The flowers perfectly accent the squash vase.
