Valeries Plaid Pumpkins - Page 3

I received my larger pumpkin from Zulily today and it is a perfect match to VPH's little pumpkins. I'm not happy with this vignette. I need to work with it some more, but here it is as it is.

Looks good, even if you're not finished! So glad it's a match.

I have not purchased any fall decos because I am limited when it comes to storage. I start decorating for Christmas the week of Thanksgiving. I wanted to say that Valerie offers many nice items. I have purchased from her in the past and was quite pleased.

@mousiegirl, The annoying part for me is how Zulily places the same items in each sale they have. If it doesn't sell out during its first 3 day listing, you can be sure it will show up in another "new today" selection, and another, and another. So I guess there's really no accurate way that Zulily could sort specific items by newest anyway, because they keep returning again and again!

I complain, I know, but I did finally spend my $30 credit, on the plaid pumpkins and a Blueberry Muffin Papa Jar candle by A Cheerful Giver. ;-)

@SHOPR Oh, now I get it. Zulily probably is obligated to show items a certain amount of times. Boy, I did some damage today, Christmas, of course.

I think I might have bought zulily's plaid pumpkins, except for the fact that I bought some sisal, I believe, and corduroy pumpkins last year, and bought some linen this year, so decided against buying them.

I stupidly did not pull the velvet pumpkins and what I mentioned out of the storeroom before I put the Christmas items in, so was not about to dig my way through by removing many items then having to put them back, so am making do only with a few new velvet pumpkins from Etsy, and whatever were in storage bins and closets, which is enough this year because I want to accomplish other things before Christmas this year.

I am going to decorate the living room and dining room very early, no one goes there until Christmas, so that will be out of the way.

I sprained my pinky finger a week ago, so am not able to garden for another week, hopefully I can get back to it next week as I have to finish potting daylilies and irises, normally that would have been finished last week.

My Fall decor will be finished soon. I think my favorite part of Fall decorating are the floral arrangements I make, have six done and that will be it.

@mousiegirl

I hope you'll post pictures when you are done decorating. Would love to see your floral arrangements.

I really like those pumpkins and the way you have them arranged. I love how different they are and the colors. They are a perfect match!

@Marsha2003, Your plaid pumpkins look perfect together. Thank goodness the big Zulily one arrived in good shape for you. Hoping my smaller two arrive safely with their long stems.

@SHOPR I'll keep my fingers crossed that yours arrive in perfect condition. It may be that those longer stems are plastic since I can imagine how you would make them out of foam like the shorter stems are made.

@itsmetoo I will, just waiting for some velvet pumpkins arrive, ordered some custom from Etsy as I wanted large deep purple, and couldn't find any. Some say they are large at 6", but 10" is large to me, and up, but too large I can't use.

I love the colors you used for your pumpkins, so beautiful, and you should be proud of yourself.

I think your arrangement is beautiful! I'd like to do the same with my VPH pumpkins, but my room is a little dark and for them to stand out I'd have to place something behind them for them to pop. Any suggestions???? Ladies????

@odie96 Do you have a plate or platter and stand that you could use behind your pumpkins?

Maybe something like this?
