- Before getting started, make sure you have gathered all of the supplies. Feel free to change any of the florals to match your current decor or theme; these can always be adjusted for personal preference.

- Susan started this arrangement by trimming the Styrofoam Block to fir inside the inner portion of the Charger Plate. She used a large amount of Hot Glue to stick the Styrofoam to the plate.
- Next Susan opted to cover the Styrofoam with Spanish Moss. This is an optional step; the Styrofoam will also be covered by the florals and greenery in the arrangement. Once the Styrofoam was covered she began placing the Pumpkins. She placed the 7" Pumpkin on one side of the Styrofoam using Hot Glue to secure it. She placed the 8.5" Pumpkin up against the first Pumpkin on the opposite side of the Styrofoam also using Hot Glue to secure it.
- Next Susan cut a few pieces of the Fall Leaves Bush to use in between the two pumpkins. She also used Hot Glue to secure these pieces.
- Susan then added the first of the florals to the arrangement. She started with the Eggplant Scabiosa Spray by cutting it into multiple sections and adding it to the base of the pumpkins. She also did the same thing with the Peony Spray. She used to Hot Glue to secure all of the pieces.
- Susan then began creating the base of greenery around the bottom of the pumpkins with the Cedar Spray and pieces of the Maidenhair Fern Bush. She cut the Cedar Spray and Maidenhair Fern into multiple sections. She placed both types of greenery in and around the pumpkins using Hot Glue to secure each section.
- Once all of the greenery had been added, Susan moved on to adding more of the florals and accents. She cut the Pink Rose Spray, Fall Berries and Scabiosa spray into multiple sections and placed them throughout the arrangement.
- Once the front of the arrangement was filled in nicely, Susan turned the arrangement to focus on adding a few florals to the back side. She used the remaining pieces of florals that she had left over from the front.
- To complete the arrangement, Susan filled in any holes with pieces of greenery. She added a few more to the front and back of the arrangement.
- When complete you will have a unique and gorgeous arrangement to use throughout the Fall and Thanksgiving season.
